• dependency analysis with SAP S/4, satellite applications and external partners
• defining the migration strategy
• prioritization of interfaces
• coordination of technical analyses
• planning developments, unit tests, integration tests and cutovers

• defining the technical target with the architects
• coordination with SAP Security, IAM, infrastructure and workplace teams

• the migration or redeployment strategy
• access, role, navigation, performance and compatibility tests
• preparation for go‑live and communication
• the transition to RUN teams

The PM must pay particular attention to the impacts of user experience, security, authentication, SAP roles and dependencies with business applications.

4. Coordination of LCPs / cross‑functional technical subjects

• coordination with SAP ECS / RISE
• tracking connectivity topics
• certificates, reverse proxy, Web Dispatcher, firewall, ports, DNS
• SAP environments and dependencies between systems

• monitoring model
• transfer to AMS
• clarification of internal/external responsibilities
• management of access and authorizations
