RISE with SAP at the migration decision.

Digital Access is not a migration question.

Digital Access does not arrive at the migration window. Digital Access has been accumulating inside the estate for the years that preceded it. Every API call, every batch interface, every middleware route, every bot, every external system that has touched the SAP digital core has been creating documents the publisher counts under the DAA construct. The migration question is not whether Digital Access exists. The migration question is what the publisher knows about it, what the buyer knows about it, and which view of it carries the better evidence.

RISE does not absorb the Digital Access exposure. RISE rolls the exposure forward, under the same DAA construct, into the cloud subscription. The buyer who enters the migration without a documented Digital Access position carries the publisher’s view into the subscription, and pays for it for the duration. The buyer who enters the migration with a reconciled Digital Access position, with documented document counts, with the deferred-charge boundary written, with the indirect-access exposure quantified, enters with a defensible position and a price the publisher cannot inflate without producing counter-evidence.

This paper covers the methodology Admodum applies inside the migration window: the Digital Access reconciliation, the named-user defence, the BTPEA construct, the hyperscaler-selection posture and the residual-estate accounting. The methodology is the one that has been applied across thirty-one SAP migrations in the firm’s engagement history.
