It’s imperative that in today’s economy, data is more than just numbers—it’s the foundation of innovation, strategy, and growth backed by AI. Yet many organizations still struggle to unlock the full potential of their data and give it purpose. SAP’s Data & Analytics Advisory Methodology under SAP BTP Guidance Framework offers a structured, four-phase approach that helps enterprises transform raw data into actionable insights while building a strong data-driven culture.
The Four Phases of SAP’s Data & Analytics Advisory Methodology
Scoping & Baseline Analysis: In this phase you can set the foundation by: Defining the scope of investigation across business processes, organizational units, and data domains. Assessing current data architecture and capabilities. Identifying gaps, pain points, and opportunities for improvement.
Benefit of this phase is that your business will have a clear baseline architecture, capability assessment, and prioritized opportunities.
Business Outcomes & Solution Requirements: the focus in this phase shifts to aligning data with measurable business goals such as: Define specific, data-driven business outcomes. Analyze use cases that trace how raw data transforms into business value. Identify required data products and map end-to-end integration flows.
This phase allows to clearly define business outcome definitions and solution context diagrams.
Capability Map & Solution Architecture: this phase transforms requirements into a target architecture by: Developing a capability map using SAP BTP Maturity Assessment Explore architecture options through traditional capability mapping or solution diagrams from the SAP Discovery Center. Validate the preferred architecture with proof-of-concepts.
With this phase the target solution architecture is validated through capability mapping and pilots.
Data Governance & Roadmaps: this final phase ensures long-term sustainability: Conduct a maturity assessment for data governance and organizational roles. Define roles such as Chief Data Officer, Data Steward, and Governance Manager. Build a roadmap with clear clusters (e.g., implementation, operations, security).
The key benefit of this phase is to define Data governance framework, organizational structure, and a roadmap for execution.
What makes SAP’s Data & Analytics Advisory Methodology stand out is that it’s not just about technology—it’s about data, people and processes. By integrating governance, roles, and organizational change management, it ensures that data initiatives aren’t just implemented but also adopted across the enterprise. For organizations aiming to thrive in a data-driven economy, SAP’s Data & Analytics Advisory Methodology provides more than a roadmap—it delivers a proven framework for turning data into business value and give it purpose. By combining architecture best practices with governance and cultural adoption, it helps enterprises evolve from simply managing data to truly innovating with it.
