It\u2019s quite a broad portfolio of products and services.<\/em>\u201d This diversity creates both opportunity and complexity\u2014particularly when it comes to standardizing and modernizing business processes across units with very different operational requirements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why S\/4HANA Public Cloud?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Agfa\u2019s digital printing division is currently undergoing a transition to SAP\u2019s S\/4HANA Public Cloud. \u201c<em>In short, yes, it seems to work,<\/em>\u201d Andreas states when asked whether the solution fits Agfa\u2019s needs. After intense phases of exploration, configuration, integration, and data migration, the company is wrapping up User Acceptance Testing (UAT) with promising results.<\/p>\n<p>The move to the cloud came with particular scrutiny on manufacturing processes. \u201c<em>From the beginning, the biggest question mark was: will it work for us as a manufacturing organization?<\/em>\u201d Andreas notes. But after months of work\u2014including \u201cexploration, show-and-tell sessions, and UAT\u201d\u2014the answer appears to be a confident yes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From Customization to Standardization<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest shifts in the move to the public cloud has been the mindset around customization. In previous SAP ECC6 environments, Agfa\u2014like many enterprises\u2014used a fit-gap model that often resulted in custom developments to match existing processes.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201c<em>With the public cloud, we opted for a different approach<\/em>,\u201d says Andreas. \u201c<em>This is the product. It works. We\u2019ll integrate it, load our data, do some configuration\u2014but we\u2019re not going to develop anything custom.<\/em>\u201d Instead, Agfa is embracing industry-standard processes built into the cloud solution.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Managing Change at Scale<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Such a transition demands not only technical work but also significant change management. \u201c<em>Change management is huge,<\/em>\u201d Andreas emphasizes. \u201c<em>We need to involve people early, help them understand the new way of working, and support them through the change<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, as the business reorients itself toward growth segments, the project is playing a key role in driving this transformation. \u201c<em>We\u2019re simplifying our operations and refocusing our portfolio<\/em>,\u201d Andreas says. \u201c<em>This project helps enable that.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Facing the Challenges Head-On<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Naturally, the road has not been without its bumps. Beyond change management, data migration has been a significant hurdle. \u201c<em>Data extraction, transformation, loading\u2014it\u2019s always challenging<\/em>,\u201d Andreas admits. Integration complexity also added to the challenge, especially with the North American deployment connecting back to operations in Belgium and various shared service centers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>It wasn\u2019t an easy ride<\/em>,\u201d he says candidly. \u201c<em>There were many technical and process hurdles to overcome. But it\u2019s worthwhile.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advice for Others Considering the Leap<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For organizations contemplating a similar journey, Andreas offers this advice: \u201cBe informed. Understand the current capabilities of the solution and what\u2019s on the roadmap. Involve the right people to make a proper assessment. There\u2019s always some risk\u2014but make it an informed risk.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking Ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When asked if, knowing what he knows now, he would do it again, Andreas doesn\u2019t hesitate. \u201c<em>Yes, we would do it again.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Agfa-Gevaert\u2019s journey is still ongoing, but their story illustrates the possibilities of cloud transformation when approached with clear strategy, open communication, and a willingness to embrace change. As the digital printing division moves into its next phase with S\/4HANA Public Cloud, it stands as a case study in how legacy businesses can successfully modernize for the future.<\/p>\n<div class=\"panel\">\n<p>Agfa-Gevaert was one of the companies sharing their insights at <strong>SAP Business Unleashed Innovation Day 2025<\/strong>.\u00a0 Did you miss it?
