18 years architecting SAP data for Fortune 500s taught me one thing: the hardest problems in an S/4HANA program are never technical. They're the decisions nobody owns. I spent my career inside the large consulting firms — Lodestone, Accenture, PwC, and most recently as a Partner at EY — running the projects where those decisions had to be made: global MDG rollouts, S/4HANA migrations across 27 markets, data governance for regulated industries. Swiss Railway. Global pharma in Basel. Consumer electronics across 3,000+ users in Asia. Defence & Space in Munich. In August 2025 I left the partnership and founded Franke Consulting. Not because the firms get it wrong — they don't — but because I wanted to stand directly next to the people making the call, without six layers of slides in between. WHAT I ACTUALLY DO Delivery Lead & MDG Architect for SAP data programs where the stakes are high and the timeline is already tight. CURRENT WORK SAP MDG on SAP HEC at a global industrial manufacturer — Business Partner and Material, real-time integration via Event Mesh and CPI, bidirectional Salesforce Pub/Sub, end-to-end governance design. TRACK RECORD (selected) → 27-market S/4HANA rollout · 99.8% migration accuracy · 3,000+ users → Global MDG + Ariba SLP · –40% data errors · –30% duplicates → Teams of 20+ FTEs · +35% delivery efficiency → €10M+ in recurring practice revenue contributed → Projects led from Düsseldorf, Basel, Bern, Singapore, Parsippany, Johannesburg, Bristol, Ulm SPECIALTY STACK • SAP MDG — Business Partner, Material, Finance • S/4HANA Migration — SLO, SNP Crystal Bridge, Selective Data Transition • SAP BTP — Event Mesh, CPI, integration architecture • AI in SAP — Joule, GenAI Hub, AI Agents, custom LLM integration • Data Governance frameworks · Data Quality at scale • Global delivery under SAFe & Scrum • C-level advisory · cross-functional team leadership BEYOND CLIENT WORK Investing in proprietary AI-assisted tooling at the intersection of SAP data governance and large-language-model reasoning — distilling 18 years of project patterns into reusable assets. More in due course. WORK WITH ME IF → your MDG or migration program is at risk and the clock is running → you need a second opinion on your SAP data strategy at board level → you want AI deployed inside SAP, not demonstrated in a slide deck Not the right fit for pure staff-augmentation roles or multi-year time-and-materials contracts. I take fewer engagements, but I own them. 📧 [email protected] 🔗 franke.tk
