From a technical perspective, these divestments mean two things:

1. The carve-out of business-critical enterprise IT systems like SAP, involving complex data models, high volumes of historical data, and the surgical separation of legal entities or assets into new environments.
2. Doing it all before the deadline specified in the transition service agreement to avoid hefty penalties or business disruption.

In short, when the value of your sale or acquisition sits – to a large degree – in that business’s system and data, you need to get this right. And ideally, you’ll want to work with someone who’s successfully wielded that metaphorical scalpel before.

We’ve delivered dozens of carve-outs and we’re more than happy to lend you our technology, expertise and experience to guide you through yours. From an automated scan of the systems to be separated - using our Pioneer technology - and a clear roadmap for the project, through to standing up a new system and a targeted migration of the divested entities, all the way to a structured approach for testing and cutover.

Carve-outs are delivered using a landscape transformation approach and software. That means we are able to do all of the above even if the source landscape is on-premise and the target in the cloud, or vice versa.
