Independent assessment
Know where you really stand - before you decide.
An independent assessment evaluates your SAP, data or AI landscape neutrally and on the facts - without being tied to the system, the contract or the service provider. The result is a solid basis for decisions: finding, effort, roadmap.
In three questions
What would you like assessed?
Briefly frame your request - we'll show you what an assessment would look like, and you go straight into a conversation.
How an assessment works
A framework that carries any subject.
The subject changes, the approach stays: the same method carries a grown SAP landscape as much as a modern data platform or an AI system. That makes the assessment tailored and yet repeatable - and comparable for you.
Dimensions
We break the subject into checkable dimensions - depending on the case, system version, data and master data, architecture, governance or security. Nothing gets blended together.
Assessment per dimension
Every dimension by the same pattern: finding, recommendation, effort and expected impact - with a status and an effort level. Traceable, not by gut feeling.
Roadmap in horizons
In the end a clear order of play: what needs fixing immediately, what to keep monitoring and where the architecture should be fundamentally rethought.
Typical occasions: a neutral second opinion on a service provider, preparing an upgrade or a migration, readiness for SAP Business Data Cloud, or questions of cost, security and governance.

Two ways in
Assessed - or worked out together.
Not every organisation needs a formal assessment first. You can approach the topic in two ways - both create clarity about where you stand.
The assessment
We evaluate from the outside, neutrally and on the facts. You receive a finding, effort and a roadmap - a checked basis for decisions, independent of operation and contract.
The workshop
We work out the status assessment together with your team. In facilitated sessions a shared picture of the situation emerges, along with first priorities and a plan - a low-barrier entry that takes people along from the start.
Your contacts
Strategic perspective meets technical depth.
A solid assessment combines two strengths: the neutral view of the overall situation - and the technical substance that carries it.

Common questions
Briefly explained.
What is an independent assessment?
A neutral, fact-based assessment of your SAP, data or AI landscape across the relevant dimensions - each with a finding, recommendation, effort and expected impact. The result is a solid basis for decisions plus a roadmap, not a sales pitch.
What is a BDC readiness check?
The assessment applied to the question of how well your existing SAP data world is set up for the path to SAP Business Data Cloud - a sober check of data quality, modelling and architecture before any migration steps are decided.
How neutral is the assessment if Xient also implements?
The assessment is set up as a standalone service and pinned to facts - finding, effort, impact. Whether a subsequent implementation happens with us, with your existing provider or in-house is your decision. It is precisely this separation that makes the result solid.
