SAP’s new standard software SAP Landscape Transformation (SAP LT) enables companies to adapt their existing SAP system landscapes to changed business requirements fast and independently. General availability of the SAP LT software began on October 4^th after successful ramp-up. At SAP TechEd in Las Vegas and upcoming events in Bangalore and Shanghai customers and partners will have the opportunity to find out about the product’s functionalities and the roadmap ahead.

Every major organizational change at a company – be it a merger, an acquisition, or a carve-out – entails specific restructuring efforts on the respective system landscape. These restructuring endeavours not only bear great risks due to technical challenges but also have a major impact on the project as a whole. New processes, reporting structures, and controlling functions need to be adapted, and clearly mirrored to the technical infrastructure to fully reflect the new corporate business setup. The company’s IT department has to take on this challenge.

What SAP LT offers

The SAP Landscape Transformation software empowers customers to plan, document, test, and perform transformation scenarios independently. This brand new SAP standard software applies nearly two decades of experience in transformation projects.

SAP LT is fully embedded in the SAP Solution Manager 7.0 and elegantly complements the Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) portfolio. The software enables organizations to fulfill technical and business requirements while maintaining data consistency and considering system integration aspects. Embedded in SAP’s ALM portfolio, synergies can be leveraged with other processes, such as solution documentation and test management. Detailed roadmaps and phased project execution result in minimal downtime during the productive conversion.
