Power BI, Tableau, and SAP Analytics Cloud on a governed metric layer
Operations and quality reporting carried through the move, with OEE and supply-chain metrics reconciled to the migrated data.
Inventory and fulfillment reporting kept live through cutover, with a governed metric layer feeding Power BI and Tableau.
Finance and clinical reporting protected through the migration, with consistent definitions and compliance-ready lineage.
BW estate rationalized, extractors re-pointed to S/4HANA, and a clear path to a modern Datasphere foundation.
Reporting consolidated onto a governed foundation so finance, product, and the board read the same numbers.
That's the point of this work. We map every report's dependency on the migrating data up front, re-point what matters to the new S/4HANA structures, and validate that the numbers reconcile to source, so the business keeps its reporting through the move.
It depends on your analytics direction, your existing investment, and your cloud strategy. We assess your estate and recommend a target architecture rather than defaulting to one path.
We're tool-neutral and recommend based on your environment, your SAP footprint, and your users. The tool matters less than the governed metric layer underneath it that makes every report agree.
No. We rationalize first, because most estates carry heavy duplication and a long tail of reports nobody opens. We retire the dead weight and rebuild what matters on a consistent foundation.
Almost always because metrics are defined differently in different places. We consolidate to a single agreed set of definitions, so the numbers reconcile and leadership stops arguing about whose figure is right.
Keep reporting alive through your S/4HANA migration and modernize it after. BW modernization, SAP Datasphere, and Power BI and Tableau on a governed foundation.
Carry reporting through the S/4HANA migration and modernize it on a governed foundation.
The investment tracks the size and state of your reporting estate, not a fixed rate. These are the factors that move the effort.
The number of BW, Crystal, Tableau, and Power BI reports that must stay live through the move or be rebuilt on the new core.
Whether your key metrics are already defined once, or re-derived differently in every report, sets how much semantic work comes first.
Standardizing on Tableau or Power BI, or running both, changes the build and the enablement effort.
Keeping regulated or board-level reporting live through cutover with zero blind spots adds parallel-run and validation work.
Handing reporting to business teams with a governed model takes more than a like-for-like rebuild, and pays back in fewer change requests.
Every engagement starts with the 30-Day Truth Audit, so the estate is measured before any number is discussed.
Carrying the old reporting logic forward moves the same disagreements onto a new system. Here is how a governed modernization differs from a straight rebuild.
Rebuilt on the governed S/4HANA core and a certified set of metric definitions.
Old logic carried forward, so the same disagreements follow the data.
Certified once so finance, ops, and the board read the same number.
Modernized in Tableau or Power BI, matched to how your teams work.
Reporting is the risk: it goes dark or breaks when the data moves.
You want reporting kept alive through cutover and modernized on the new core.
You're standardizing reporting on Tableau or Power BI over BW or Crystal.
You need the full move planned and run: see SAP Data Readiness & Migration.
Your master data is the chronic problem: see SAP Data Quality & Governance.
Assess, blueprint, and migrate your data with reconciliation you can prove.
Deduplicate, cleanse, and govern master data so reporting runs on trusted data.
We carry your reporting through the S/4HANA migration and modernize it after, on a governed foundation. BW, Datasphere, and the Power BI and Tableau layer planned as part of the move, so the business never goes dark.
SAP reporting and analytics modernization carries your reporting through an S/4HANA migration and modernizes it afterward on a governed foundation. Thinklytics plans the BW, Datasphere, and Power BI or Tableau layer as part of the move, so the business never goes dark and your numbers survive the change of system.
We protect reporting through the migration and modernize it on a foundation you can trust. We rationalize the BW estate, build the right target, and feed Power BI, Tableau, and SAC from a governed metric layer.
Reporting continuity has the highest return where the business runs on its numbers daily and can't afford a dark period. These are the segments where losing reporting at cutover hurts most.
Start with the 30-Day Truth Audit. We map your reporting and the data beneath it, then plan continuity and modernization as part of the migration.

The people who normally own this problem are CFO, FP&A director, COO. They are the ones who start the search, and they are not always the person who signs for the work.
A buyer usually describes the situation this way: My team spends days assembling the monthly pack, and most of it is reconciliation rather than analysis.
The spend is normally gated by the CFO or executive sponsor, whose question is: Is the improvement worth the investment? What that person needs to approve it is a business case with stated assumptions and measurable outcomes.
