“Service providers are helping them decide which data to retain, how to move it to a new platform and how to ensure data quality.”

“Service providers are helping many U.K. companies cost-effectively manage SAP applications and get new solutions out more quickly,” said Yadu Singh, EMEA lead, digital platforms and solutions, for ISG. “They are configuring more industry-specific cloud solutions to meet the growing demand.”
Cloud migration is especially strong among British midmarket companies. Adopting SAP S/4HANA cloud solutions has allowed them to start using SAP for tangible business benefits, the report says. Large enterprises are also increasing their cloud adoption, but that trend is less pronounced.
Enterprises in the U.K. are under growing pressure to meet new decarbonization goals, ISG says. SAP solutions help in these efforts, but companies are now facing a shortage of qualified talent, ISG says. SAP service providers are adding environmental, social and governance (ESG) components to their offerings and launching aggressive hiring and training initiatives to help enterprise customers meet these challenges.
Many large organizations in the U.K. also have huge amounts of data from legacy platforms, which makes migration to the cloud and SAP S4/HANA more difficult, the report says.
“Data management is a challenge for many U.K. companies,” said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “Service providers are helping them decide which data to retain, how to move it to a new platform and how to ensure data quality.”
BTP, SAP’s unified, no-code cloud environment for enterprise applications, has also gained traction in the U.K. over the past year, ISG says. Many companies are adopting BTP to integrate technologies including AI, machine learning and blockchain. Their goals include accelerating technology migrations, automating business processes and using live data from S/4HANA for real-time intelligence.
