Can you see your application landscape clearly enough to make the next decision? For many organisations, the answer is no.
SAP LeanIX creates a shared view of applications, technologies, dependencies and business capabilities. Expertum brings the SAP and architecture expertise to turn that view into decisions your organisation can act on.
You cannot steer a landscape you cannot see.
Most organisations have plenty of architecture data. The challenge is turning it into a trusted view that helps people make decisions.
No one agrees on what we actually run
Applications, owners and dependencies are spread across spreadsheets, diagrams and people’s heads. Nobody is quite sure which view is complete or current.
Too many blind spots around SAP S/4HANA
An SAP S/4HANA transformation affects much more than ERP. Without visibility of applications, technologies and dependencies, important decisions are based on assumptions.
Architecture decisions take too long
When every question means collecting data from different teams, architecture becomes slow. LeanIX creates a shared foundation for faster decisions.
Cost and risk are hard to prioritise
Overlapping applications and ageing technologies are difficult to address when you cannot see which processes and business capabilities depend on them.
We begin with a concrete question such as SAP S/4HANA, application rationalisation or technology risk. That keeps the scope focused and useful.
We define the Fact Sheets, relationships and business capabilities needed for that question. We do not populate LeanIX simply because a field exists.
We connect useful existing sources where possible, reducing manual maintenance and helping LeanIX reflect what is actually happening in your landscape.
We define who owns which information and how it stays current, so LeanIX becomes part of the way architecture is managed.
“LeanIX becomes valuable when people use it to make real decisions. We keep the model focused, make sure the data can be trusted and connect it to the questions your organisation actually needs to answer.”
Bring applications, technologies, dependencies and ownership together in one shared architecture model.
Use current and target architecture to understand impact, dependencies and what needs to change next.
Identify overlapping applications, rationalisation opportunities and technology risks that deserve attention.
We combine integrations, ownership and governance so LeanIX remains accurate and relevant as your landscape changes.
SAP LeanIX gives you a structured view of your applications, technologies, dependencies and business capabilities. It helps architecture teams understand the current landscape and plan how it should evolve.
No. We prefer to start with a clear use case and the information needed to support it. The model can then grow as LeanIX becomes relevant to more decisions.
LeanIX shows the applications, technologies and dependencies around your ERP landscape. This helps assess impact, identify what needs to change and build a clearer target architecture.
Yes. LeanIX can integrate with SAP and non SAP tools and data sources. We determine which connections actually improve accuracy and reduce manual maintenance.
Technology helps, but ownership matters equally. We combine automated data where useful with clear responsibility for the information that needs human context.
