##  Reasons to Start an ERP Transformation
ERP systems are at the core of an organization’s business operations. Over time, these systems may become outdated or misaligned with an organization's evolving needs, leading to inefficiencies, data silos, and compliance issues. Some of the reasons why organizations are looking to transform their ERP landscape are:
  * Leveraging new technology advancements (for example, generative AI, automation, cloud, lean interfaces) and renovating the overall architecture to be more flexible.
  * Need to upgrade to a new version of the system imposed by the vendor. Upgrading is especially important for SAP customers, because they need to transition from their existing SAP ECC solutions to SAP S/4HANA by 2030. This is due to expiring support for legacy SAP systems.
  * Any merger or acquisition (M&A) activity usually enforces an integration or a carve-out of existing business units and their respective systems, often accompanied by setting up new ERP systems.
  * Modernizing and optimizing ERP systems for improved cost efficiency.
  * Maintaining agility and adapting to new market conditions and customer demands.
