A Proven 4-Phase Journey to the Cloud.
No two migrations are the same. Silver Touch helps you evaluate all paths — and selects the one that best balances
transformation ambition with operational continuity.
transformation ambition with operational continuity.
Phase 1 — Discover
4–6 Weeks
- Business and IT current-state assessment, value-driver mapping
- SAP Readiness Check, custom-code analysis (ATC, Code Inspector), and simplification item review
- SAP Signavio process mining and process discovery

Phase 2 — Prepare
6–10 Weeks
- Target architecture and integration design across SAP and non-SAP landscape
- Data quality remediation and data migration strategy
- Custom code remediation plan — eliminate, simplify, or rebuild on SAP BTP
- Cutover, testing, and change management blueprint
Phase 3 — Realize
12–28 Weeks
- Iterative configuration aligned to SAP Best Practices and Fit-to-Standard
- Side-car BTP extensions for differentiating processes (clean core principle)
- Multi-cycle data migration, integration build, and end-to-end testing
- Role-based training, super-user enablement, and organizational change management
