The 5-day Fit-to-Standard workshop that actually decides

The core myth: 'standard-first'

SAP Activate says standard-first, but no cloud CFO ever accepted a 40-item gap list without a fight. This agenda front-loads Day 1 with the business scenarios that always cause gaps (revenue recognition, group reporting, statutory tax) so you catch them cheap.

Facilitator scripts that unblock stuck workshops

Three ready-to-use prompts: 'What does compliant look like at year-end?', 'Where do you route this in the current system?', 'Who signs this off today?'. These three cut most Fit-to-Standard workshops in half.

Gap capture template

Every gap gets: category, business rationale, standard alternative, effort estimate, and CFO/COO decision. No hand-waving.
