When it comes to S/4HANA transformations, it’s rare to hear about projects that stay on time and on budget. In this episode, we sit down with Paul Hickman, an experienced program manager with over 20 years in oil and gas and five years managing S/4 programs, to unpack how his team achieved exactly that.
Paul joins Jay and Seb to discuss his recent brownfield migration from ECC to S/4HANA in SAP’s private cloud — a 12-month project that delivered measurable success while setting the stage for a longer-term transformation roadmap.
He shares what it takes to align stakeholders, manage interdependencies, control scope, and maintain executive confidence throughout the process. From fostering collaboration across on-site and remote teams to navigating the tricky line between transition and transformation, Paul’s lessons are practical, candid and rooted in real-world delivery.
Whether you’re planning your own S/4 journey or mid-way through one, this episode is packed with insights you can take straight back to your program.
