THIS EVENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON TEAMS

Everyone loves a catch-up over a coffee, and we want to make sure our community stays connected. For this online event, we will start off with a closed-door coffee session for Public Sector professionals only. This is a brilliant opportunity to catch up with colleagues, and friends and welcome new members into the community; whilst discussing experiences, downfalls and successes you’ve had.

Like many SAP customers, DLUHC has been running and developing SAP for over two decades and over the past couple of years has embarked on a transformative SAP evolution, in preparation for DLUHC ultimately joining the Unity Shared Service with HMRC & DfT. DLUHC have a highly skilled in-house team which has enabled DLUHC to adopt a highly incremental, agile, transformation approach which has already seen the phased introduction of SAP SaaS solutions, including Concur, SAP Analytics Cloud and SuccessFactors PMGM. This has prepared the groundwork for the integration of key BTP services, the introduction of Employee Central at the start of 2024 and a comprehensive upgrade to S4 and BW4 in late 2024. This incremental approach has enabled DLUHC to deliver tangible business benefits throughout the transformation journey, mitigating risk and delivering change with a small team.

Central to this achievement has been DLUHC’s mastery of Fiori's dynamic capabilities, facilitating a harmonious user interface throughout the radical change of DLUHC's SAP foundation landscape. Through Fiori's lens, the intricacies of DLUHC's transformation journey come to light, revealing insights into their strategic approach and the symbiotic relationship between the incremental process and the transformative power of Fiori. Listen to Ruth Hemington from DLUHC sharing on their Fiori Transformation Journey.

Hear from Chris Burfitt from Proceed Group who will be talking about SAP data compliance – The people, technology, and security framework (SuccessFactors edition)

This session offers a strategic exploration into SAP data compliance, with a spotlight on SuccessFactors. This session zeroes in on aligning varying perceptions about data retention, the unique compliance considerations of each organisation, and an introduction to the data privacy tools of SuccessFactors and beyond.

Engage in a comprehensive overview of SAP data compliance, highlighting:

  • Unified data retention: Address the challenge of diverse stakeholder views regarding data retention durations. By fostering collaborative discussions, the goal is to build a consensus that harmonizes these varying perspectives
  • The compliance roadmap: With an understanding of data retention in hand, shift focus to creating a tailored compliance plan. This roadmap is designed to resonate with both regulatory necessities and the unique needs of your business
  • Data compliance tools: Dive into the features and tools available within SuccessFactors. But don’t stop there; extend your understanding to tools and features beyond the SuccessFactors ecosystem that can aid in data compliance

In this next session, SAP’s Public Sector Value Advisors David Dinsdale and Deirdre Critchley will share the best of the business case approaches that they have seen across the Public Sector over the last few years. The aim is to share tips and tricks, what has worked well and what has not worked well. Previous UKISUG sessions have looked at some of the SAP value tools in detail – benchmarking, VLM etc. This session will be at a higher level and cover the end-to-end process of business case creation, including where SAP and other tools can be used to the most effect.

As this is a Partner sponsored event, there may be some restrictions on which members can attend. This means that even if your initial booking is accepted, we may contact you to cancel your booking.
