The Execution Layer for
SAP Transformation

Launch Layer complements SAP Signavio for process context and SAP LeanIX for architecture context — then generates the BRDs, integration specs, UAT packs, and risk controls your delivery team needs.

Three Layers of Truth

The Three-Layer Model

Every successful S/4HANA migration needs process truth, architecture truth, and execution truth. Each layer has a purpose — and a home.

account_tree
Layer 1
Process Truth
SAP Signavio
  • check Process models and variants
  • check Process mining and analytics
  • check Process governance and compliance
  • check As-is / to-be process mapping
hub
Layer 2
Architecture Truth
SAP LeanIX
  • check Application inventory and lifecycle
  • check System dependencies and data flows
  • check Interface and integration maps
  • check Technology rationalization roadmaps

Layer 3
Execution Truth
Launch Layer
  • check BRDs and functional specifications
  • check UAT scripts and test packs
  • check Integration mappings and specs
  • check Risk controls and change propagation

Signavio explains how the business works. LeanIX explains what systems exist. Launch Layer turns both into delivery-ready execution.

Execution Artifacts

What Launch Layer Produces

From approved process and architecture context, Launch Layer generates the artifacts your delivery team consumes every day.

description

BRDs from Approved Process Context

Business requirements documents generated directly from Signavio process models — structured, traceable, and ready for sign-off.

code

FSDs with Field-Level SAP Mapping

Functional specification documents with SAP transaction codes, field mappings, and configuration logic — from architecture and process context.

fact_check

UAT Scripts Tied to Process Variants

Test scripts mapped to SAP process variants from Signavio — covering happy paths, exceptions, and edge cases with full traceability.

sync_alt

Integration Specs for Connected Systems

Interface specifications generated from LeanIX dependency maps — covering payloads, error handling, and system connectivity for SAP-adjacent systems.

trending_up

Change Impact Propagation

When a process or architecture decision changes, Launch Layer propagates the impact across BRDs, test packs, integration specs, and risk controls automatically.

shield

Risk Controls and Compliance Mapping

Structured risk registers and control matrices tied to SAP processes — ensuring nothing moves to production without documented risk coverage.

Complement Strategy

Designed to Complement, Not Replace

Launch Layer integrates with the tools SAP organizations already own — and fills the execution gap they were never designed to cover.

Complement to Signavio

Process context to execution artifacts

description
Process-to-BRD

Approved process models become structured business requirements — no manual translation.

fact_check
Process-to-UAT

Process variants and exceptions become complete test scripts with traceability to source models.

trending_up
Process Change Impact

When a process model changes in Signavio, Launch Layer flags every downstream BRD, test, and spec that needs updating.

hub

Complement to LeanIX

Architecture context to delivery specs

sync_alt
Interface Specifications

LeanIX dependency maps become detailed integration specs with payloads, protocols, and error handling.

checklist
Dependency-Aware Test Packs

Test coverage that accounts for system dependencies — so connected systems are validated before go-live.

Wave Readiness Scoring

Architecture context feeds wave-level readiness assessments — are all systems, interfaces, and dependencies ready for cutover?
