Delivered

Not what we could do.
What we have done.

SAP upgrade programmes, tested end to end by the same consultants who would work on yours — the regression scope defined, automated where it repeats, and run by hand where judgement decides the answer.

S/4HANA upgrade
Release 2020 to 2024

Upgrade regression built around the business processes actually in use, executed against the release, and evidenced for the go/no-go rather than reported as a pass count.

S/4HANA upgrade · private cloud
Release 2020 to 2025

The same work on private cloud, where the release cadence belongs to SAP and the window is fixed — so the regression pack has to be ready before the date, not after it.

Both, on the same programme
Manual and automated

Automated where a scenario returns every release and earns its maintenance. Tested by hand where data, exceptions or judgement decide it. Most programmes need both, and we run both.

What changes

What it is worth, in the terms a programme is judged on.

½–⅔

off the regression cycle, where the repeating scope was automated — a release stops needing a dedicated window

A day→ overnight

execution that occupied a full working day, scheduled to run unattended and read in the morning

Hundreds

of reusable test cases and accelerators, carried into the next release rather than rebuilt for it

From delivered engagements. The size of the gain depends on the landscape, the release cadence and how much of the scope genuinely repeats — we will tell you what is realistic for yours before you commit to anything.

How an engagement runs

From first call to evidence the board can act on.

No part of this is improvised. You know what is in scope before anything starts, what we will look at, what you receive, and who owns closing it — in writing, at the beginning.

01

A conversation

You describe the programme and the date. We tell you what we would look at first, and whether we are the right people for it. No cost and no obligation.

02

Scope agreed in writing

What is in, what is out, whose time we need and for how long. Nothing begins until that is on a page you have approved.

03

We measure, we do not opine

Test scope against actual transaction usage. Test data readiness. Regression cycle time. Automation effectiveness. Defect and business risk. Five measurements — none of which grade anyone’s work.

04

You receive the pack

Coverage assessment, requirement-to-test traceability, gap register, regression and automation recommendations, prioritised actions. One document your SI can work from and your board can read.

05

You decide who closes it

Your team, your SI, or us. If it is us, the same consultants carry on — there is no handover to a delivery unit that was never in the room.

The problem

SAP programmes rarely fail in build. They struggle in the gap between tested and proven.

Sixty percent of S/4HANA transformations run past budget and schedule, and testing is the phase most often named as underestimated. This is hard for everyone, including very good teams.

It is not that nobody tested. Everybody tested — against a plan assembled from workshops and memory, executed to ninety-something percent, and reported green. That is genuinely all the tools ask for.

The number was never wrong. It was simply answering a different question.

Why an outside view helps
A second pair of eyes is not a criticism. It is just good practice.

Your system integrator is doing a hard job well, under a deadline. But a team measured on the go-live date will always find it difficult to also be the team that says “this needs another two weeks”. That is human, not a failing.

We did not build your SAP system, so we have no code to defend and no date to protect. That is the only advantage we have, and it is enough to be useful.

And we do not stop at the finding. If you want help closing what we find, we are here — testing, automation, or simply the right people. If you would rather your own team or your SI closed it, we hand over everything we have.

What we look at

Five checks. None of them grade anyone’s work.

01
Test scope & coverage
02
Test data readiness
03
Regression cycle time
04
Automation effectiveness
05
Defect & business risk
In scope — ours

Every one of these is a measurement rather than an opinion. That is deliberate — it keeps the conversation about evidence instead of about people, which is more comfortable for everyone and gets things fixed faster.

Out of scope — your SI’s

We do not review whether your system integrator configured SAP correctly. That is their work, they are good at it, and it is not our place. Configuration, WRICEF and integration design stay with them.

A checklist you can keep

Five questions worth asking before go-live.

These are the five we start every assessment with. They are just as useful without us, so please take them and use them with your own team.

Gathering the answers usually takes a little time — that is completely normal, and it is often the most useful conversation a team has all quarter.

01
How much of our SAP test scope reflects what the business actually uses — and what changed?
02
Does our test data represent the conditions, volumes and exceptions the business will face in production?
03
How many working days does one complete regression cycle take today?
04
Which key scenarios are in scope for automation — and is it actually reducing effort and cycle time?
05
If we went live tomorrow, which open defects or untested processes could disrupt the business?
The people

SAP quality needs more than testing expertise. It needs domain and SAP experience.

The strongest assurance comes from people who understand all three.

Domain knowledge tells us what matters. SAP experience tells us where to look. Testing expertise tells us how to validate it.

That intersection is where Rufouss operates. Rufouss works alongside your people and your SI, bringing an independent quality perspective to your SAP transformation.

We scope from usage, not from memory.

Most test scopes are built in workshops, where experienced people describe what they believe the business does. It is the best method most teams have, and it quietly misses things — because people describe the process they designed, not the one that runs at 2am on the last working day of the quarter.

We derive scope from evidence the system already holds: transaction usage, custom code execution logs, process mining. What actually runs, how often, and by whom.

What you receive

Readiness you can see at a glance.

Every assessment ends with the same five measures, scored against your programme and backed by the evidence behind each one. No opinion, no narrative — a position a steering committee can act on in a single screen.

What we do

Four ways we make a programme safer to sign off.

Go-Live Assurance

An independent, evidence-based view of how ready your testing really is — so the go/no-go is a decision on evidence rather than a judgement call.

Swipe for all four

Most engagements start with a conversation.

Some clients ask us to review their SAP test strategy. Others want to understand what should be tested, what should be automated, or where quality needs more attention.

Some need an independent perspective. Others need us to work alongside their team and SI through the programme.

There is no fixed place to begin. Start with the quality question that matters most to you.

Tricentis Partner

Certified on the platform, fluent in the process.

Rufouss is a Tricentis partner. In practice that means three things for your programme.

Certified engineers, not self-taught ones. The people building your automation have been trained and assessed on Tosca, not learned it from documentation mid-project.

The SAP-certified integration, used properly. Tosca’s SAP support is deep and easy to use badly. Partner access means we build on the supported path rather than around it.

Current with the roadmap. Including agentic test generation, which reached the SAP Store this year and which we run in live delivery.

In their words

What clients say about working with us.

Our SAP upgrade required speed, accuracy, and strong execution discipline. Rufouss Global ERP & Digital Solutions quickly aligned with our business processes, built structured test scenarios with minimal onboarding, and executed complex end-to-end validations across multiple SAP modules within a short timeframe. The engagement was supported by well-organised execution, clear reporting, and thorough documentation. Their familiarity with Tricentis contributed to efficient validation cycles. Overall, the collaboration was constructive and aligned with our objectives.

Please just ask

No question is too simple. And none is too complicated.

You do not need a business case, a budget code, or a tidy requirement to talk to us. If you are wondering whether your test plan looks normal, whether automation is worth it yet, or how other companies handled the same SAP release — ask. We will tell you what we think, plainly.

Twenty years of SAP experience is on the other end of that email. There is no charge for a conversation.

After go-live

Go-live is not the finish line. It is the start of the cadence.

SAP now ships releases on a schedule you do not set, and each one needs regression testing whether or not there is capacity for it.

We keep the regression pack current and run it on cadence, so a release becomes a scheduled event rather than a scramble. That is what the assurance subscription is for.

Tell us where you are. We will tell you how we can help.

A short conversation and a straight answer — what we would look at first, what it would take, and what you would have at the end of it.
