SAP NOW AI Tour: Expert Centre: Faster. Smarter. Proven: Busting Myths Around SAP Business Suite Adoption

In the session Faster, Smarter, Proven: Busting Myths Around Business Suite Adoption, Bronwen Thomas, Head of Premium Engagements (QLD, VIC, WA), explored how organisations can overcome hesitation around cloud and AI adoption by approaching transformation in manageable steps. Many businesses face fear, uncertainty, and “transformation fatigue,” but this session demonstrated that innovation does not have to be disruptive to be effective. Instead, organisations can adopt AI and cloud capabilities incrementally, leveraging existing investments while moving toward greater efficiency and value.A key takeaway was the value of modular AI adoption, where small, targeted implementations deliver tangible results without the need for sweeping programs. Another highlight was the importance of leveraging existing investments—migration to S/4HANA does not mean starting from scratch, but rather building on what’s already in place. A “clean core” approach, focused on selective data transformation, ensures higher data quality, which is essential for AI-driven innovation.The overarching message was clear: AI and cloud adoption don’t need to be overwhelming—businesses can proceed at their own pace, achieving value faster while reducing transformation fatigue.
