Agile Coach in the SAP/S4 Migration Program Organization and Agile Transformation Coach

Haufe Group SE

  • Migration of all business processes of the Haufe Group from an SAP ECC R/3 Solution on SAP S/4 OnPrem incl. Salesforce and peripheral system interfaces.
  • Transformation of the program organization from 6 sub-projects into a scaled agile organization to stabilize the go-live date.
  • Establishing the key figures and performance metrics of an agile organization.
  • Agile Development and Rollout Principles of an SAP Migration.
  • Scrum Master of the teams Customer, Business Parter, SAP DEV, Migration, Controlling, BI & Reporting and Coach for change processes of large organizations and project turnaround.
  • Development and adaptation of team structures, introduction of target system, development of agile teams and the understanding of roles.
  • Introduction of quarterly planning.
  • Introduction of agile KPIs.
  • I joined an SAP migration that has been running for several years as an Agile Transformation Coach. There was a desire to harden the estimate for effort and duration from the project to the steering board and to name a reliable go-live date.
  • The program management placed their trust in me, so that we decided together to transform to an agile approach with a focus on E2E business processes (value). This included the change of the program organization to a structure of several agile teams as well as the change in management and reporting.
  • We have built up the role of product owners with the team leads and established an optimization for usable E2E business processes.
  • As early as possible, we put the business transactions into production and expanded them iteratively. In this way, we have reduced the risk of the big-bang go-live and received early feedback from users from the specialist departments.
  • We have laid the foundation of a DevOps organization. In this way, the skills and sense of responsibility of the teams for live operation were created early on. The organization was thus well positioned for operation after the project phase.
  • The delivery times of business processes were reduced by a technical cut.
  • With the reduction in cycle times, forecasts for delivery dates became more stable.
  • The delivery rates (SAP transports) became faster with the smaller units.
  • Users in the departments were thus able to see and benefit from results earlier and more frequently. This increased confidence in the teams' ability to deliver.
  • We can keep our own commitments, thus building trust and reducing costs by shortening duplicate structures for the duration of the migration.

Several departments and contractual partners have been integrated into your joint product organization in order to optimize the delivery reliability of promised components to the customer.
  • To do this, I worked with both the agile teams and the leadership team. We were able to bring together the different frameworks such as LeSS or Kanban, according to which the teams worked individually, into a common scaled framework.
  • In the management team, we develop the goals for this and formulate them as OKRs. Performance measurement has been changed from cost tracking to measurement of valuable product increments.
  • The delivery times of new features have been improved by shorter cycle times. This resulted in an increase in the delivery rate. Customers were served faster.
  • The cooperation of the parties involved became noticeably more effective with frequent deliveries.
  • Dependencies between teams have been reduced. Simplify product creation.
  • New information from the market could be considered more quickly in development at team level. This has created flexibility and thus security in the dynamic environment.
  • Forecasts of delivery dates have become more accurate because smaller product units are delivered with a measurable benefit. Planning cycles have been shortened, thus reducing the risk of undesirable developments.
  • The organization is better able to keep its own promises.

Key figures such as the Group KPI "Punctuality" were calculated near-time for the DB AG Board of Management and provided interactively for evaluations and as a basis for decision-making. For this purpose, a data lake was set up and played out with several Qlik applications on different end devices. Raw data on availability, failures, construction sites and the like were collected from all divisions. The BI app calculated the key figures and made them available interactively on different devices with filters and different timelines.
  • In a scaled Scrum environment, I supported the product owners in creating a product roadmap and determining the delivery dates with the other departments with a high degree of reliability. In workshops with the management circle, we visually prepared the complex relationships as well as the measured performance during implementation. This enabled cross-departmental prioritization. Costs could be optimized transparently across divisional boundaries.
  • Through transparency in the development teams, we have established a clear focus on the important features of the product. We were able to provide a usable product at a very early stage that achieved added value early on. The KPI "punctuality" was able to move from manual calculation to our product very early in the development period of the product.
