To transform is to go through a dramatic change. It is the process by which organisms or organizations change to adapt to the ever-changing world around them not only to survive but to excel, to be the absolute best in their environment.

The pressure is on for modern day businesses. Over the last 50 years, the average lifespan of companies on the S&P 500 has shrunk from 60 to 18 years. There is an ever growing need to transform your company, its SAP landscape, and cloud strategy to give it the staying power of the world’s most successful companies.
