The Four Layers of Your
SmartTransform brings together specialized technologies, AI, and REALTECH’s unique SAP expertise in one modular platform. Four interconnected layers lay the foundation for a more efficient, controlled SAP transformation – from initial assessment to stable operations.
Our Guiding Principles
Understand First.
Transform Second.
SmartTransform takes a data-driven, hands-on approach. Instead of building complex SAP transformation projects on assumptions, we establish clarity early, validate target processes, and connect modernization with long-term operational stability.
01
Facts Over Assumptions
Understand actual system usage and dependencies to make informed decisions.
02
Validate Before You Scale
Test target processes in a working SAP environment before committing to major investments.
03
Modernize with Purpose
Assess custom code based on business value and modernize in line with Clean Core principles.
04
Plan for Continuous Operations
Integrate changes, services, and operational knowledge into the transformation from the start.
The Platform
Four Layers. One Connected Transformation Framework.
SmartTransform combines specialized partner technologies with REALTECH software and SAP expertise. The four layers work together to support your transformation from initial assessment through to stable operations.
01 · Scope Diagnostics
powered by REALTECH + West Trax
Analyze actual SAP usage, infrastructure, and technical dependencies to build a solid foundation for project scope, planning, and the business case.
01 · The Foundation
Scope Diagnostics
powered by REALTECH + West Trax
With the KPI Analyzer, West Trax provides an automated, data-driven view of actual SAP usage, thereby creating a solid factual foundation for transformation decisions.
REALTECH connects: SmartITSM/SmartCMDB and theGuard! BSM expand the view to include infrastructure, configuration items, services, availability, and technical dependencies. This creates a 360° perspective on legacy systems, operations, and transformation relevance.
- Identify critical dependencies and legacy issues.
- Prioritize the scope based on usage and relevance.
- Justify the complexity, risks, and business case.
- Use the collected data for additional layers.
02 · Agile Transformation
powered by REALTECH + LeapGreat
Test target processes early in a working SAP S/4HANA system, validate key decisions, and maintain full visibility into project progress.
02 · The Navigator
Agile Transformation
powered by REALTECH + LeapGreat
LeapGreat FrontLoad™ quickly establishes a functional S/4HANA baseline (working system). The LeapGreat Hub integrates system context, navigation, project information, and the toolchain.
REALTECH connects: REALTECH brings these capabilities together in SmartTransform, involves business units and project managers, and enhances the platform with additional tools, governance, support, and transformation expertise.
- Test target processes early in the system rather than spending a long time merely describing them in conceptual terms.
- Fit-to-Standard: Clarify data and migration issues earlier.
- Keep track of scope, decisions, risks, and progress in a centralized manner.
- Increase the autonomy of your own team and reduce reliance on consultants.
03 · Clean Core Transformation
powered by REALTECH + Nova Intelligence
Use AI to analyze custom code, identify opportunities to adopt standard functionality, and modernize essential extensions in line with Clean Core principles.
03 · The Fresh Start
Clean Core Transformation
powered by REALTECH + Nova Intelligence
Nova Intelligence uses agent-based AI to understand existing SAP landscapes, custom code, and dependencies; assess their alignment with standards; and redesign or develop necessary extensions in accordance with the Clean Core framework.
REALTECH connects: REALTECH integrates this modernization with SmartChange, BTP/Clean Core expertise, and the broader transformation context. As a result, custom code is not treated in isolation, but rather as part of the scope, target architecture, and change governance.
- Distinguish business-relevant code from legacy code.
- Check standard functionality before developing new features.
- Prepare the necessary extensions for ABAP Cloud/RAP or side-by-side on SAP BTP.
- Safely implement changes and transfers into the landscape using SmartChange.
04 · Operations Transformation
powered by REALTECH
Integrate Change Management, ITSM, and monitoring from the start to ensure a smooth transition from transformation to ongoing operations.
04 · Stability
Operations Transformation
powered by REALTECH
REALTECH brings its proven expertise in SAP Change, ITSM, CMDB, monitoring, and interface management to SmartTransform. SmartChange, SmartITSM/SmartCMDB, Interface Manager, and theGuard! BSM serve as the bridge between projects and operations.
REALTECH connects: Transformation knowledge doesn’t end at go-live. Changes, releases, services, technical dependencies, and support context remain available and can be reused for rollouts and continuous optimization.
- Monitor changes and transfers before, during, and after the transformation.
- Keep service, infrastructure, and interface dependencies traceable.
- Consider operational stability and supportability early on.
- Reuse insights gained from the transformation and operations for future rollouts.

Kölnmesse
DSAG Jahreskongress 2026
At this year’s DSAG Annual Conference, we’ll take a closer look at the SAP transformation and show how a different approach can lead to tangible results more quickly.
When business teams, SAP experts, and management can work with the same functional system, expectations become clearer, requirements more concrete, and important decisions easier to make.
