SAP Licensing Experts

SAP licensing turns on named-user classification, digital (indirect) access and the economics of the S/4HANA migration — three areas where most organisations over-pay or carry hidden risk. Our independent SAP licensing experts give you a clear, buyer-side position before your next true-up, audit or RISE conversation.

What we cover

Licensing Advisory

SAP Licensing Experts — What's Included

Named-user and engine optimisation, digital/indirect access defence, and S/4HANA & RISE modelling.

Named-user and engine optimisation

We reclassify and right-size named users to match real activity, and review package/engine metrics where consumption is routinely overstated — a frequent source of avoidable SAP cost.

Digital (indirect) access

Indirect and digital access claims have produced some of the largest SAP settlements on record. We assess your integration architecture, model document-based digital access, and position you to challenge or pre-empt a claim.

S/4HANA and RISE migration

We model the licensing and commercial impact of S/4HANA and RISE with SAP before you commit, so the migration doesn't quietly reset your costs upward.

Common Questions

SAP Licensing Experts — FAQ

What does an SAP licensing expert do?
An SAP licensing expert analyses your SAP contracts, named users and consumption to find the lowest-cost compliant position, addresses digital/indirect access exposure, and advises on S/4HANA and RISE migration economics.
What is SAP indirect access?
Indirect (digital) access is use of SAP data or processes by third-party applications or users without a direct SAP login. SAP can charge for it under a document-based digital access model, and claims are often negotiable with the right analysis.
Are you independent of SAP?
Yes. We represent buyers only, with no SAP resale or quota incentive.
