Mid-Year SAP Checkup: Is Your System Still Serving Your Strategy?

By May 1, 2025No Comments

We’re almost halfway through 2025. Time flies when you’re growing a business. But while you’re focused on hitting your goals, there’s one thing that might be silently falling behind: your SAP system.

Let’s be honest. Systems that seemed fine in January might be showing signs of strain now. Maybe it’s performance. Maybe it’s security. Maybe it’s that big migration you keep pushing down the road.

This is your sign to check in.

A mid-year SAP review isn’t about finding fault. It’s about making sure your technology keeps up with your business.

Here’s where we recommend starting:

1. Performance: Is your system slowing you down?

If your team’s waiting longer for reports, noticing occasional lags, or dealing with flaky integrations—you’re not imagining it. These are early signs that your system might need tuning.

What to check:

  • Are your workflows still efficient?
  • Are background jobs causing delays?
  • Are old configurations holding things back?

Sometimes, it’s not about a major overhaul. It’s about clearing out the digital clutter.

2. Security & Compliance: Is everything still airtight?

With Malaysia’s PDPA amendments now in effect—and global regulations getting stricter—compliance isn’t optional.

What to review:

  • Who has access to what?
  • Are logs and audit trails active and reviewed?
  • Is your data encrypted and stored according to best practices?

SAP environments are full of sensitive data. A quick check now could save you from a costly audit later.

3. Your Roadmap: Are you still on track for S/4HANA?

Let’s talk about the 2027 deadline. If you’re still running on SAP ECC, you’ve got less time than you think.

What to clarify mid-year:

  • Are your plans realistic for migration?
  • Have you started system assessments?
  • Are your people and budget aligned for the transition?

The reality is this: late planners will face tighter timelines, fewer available experts, and more stress. Starting early is your advantage.

Don’t wait for something to break.
Mid-year is the perfect time to pause, assess, and recalibrate before things escalate.
