Panaya and Cognitus Announce Strategic Partnership for SAP S/4HANA Transformation

HACKENSACK, N.J., April 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Panaya, the leader in SaaS based Change Intelligence and Testing for ERP & Enterprise Cloud Applications, announced today a new partnership with Cognitus, a global SAP Gold Partner, to address the growing demand for SAP S/4HANA transformation. This brand-new collaboration has already yielded its first mutual customer, Sumitomo Bakelite North America (SBHPP), which will soon migrate to SAP S/4HANA with Cognitus, powered by Panaya's S/4 Convert solution and Test Dynamix platform.

The Panaya and Cognitus partnership comes in response to the increasing demand of organizations for SAP S/4HANA implementations projects. This will leverage both Panaya's and Cognitus' ability to assist businesses with advanced technology and consulting expertise for more efficient and risk-free SAP S/4HANA migration projects.

Sumitomo Bakelite North America (SBHPP), a global leader in high-performance plastics solutions, chose Cognitus and Panaya to complete their digital transformation, with Cognitus migrating their SAP ECC environment into SAP S/4HANA leveraging of Panaya's S/4 Convert and Intelligent Code Remediation solutions.

By combining Panaya's rich SAP portfolio, which includes the Change Intelligence Platform and AI-enhanced cloud platform, Test Dynamix, with Cognitus' Gallop package and SAP expertise, this partnership will enable SBHPP and others to smoothly migrate to SAP S/4HANA.

"Panaya and Cognitus make perfect partners", says Shabi Levi, Head of Channels and Alliance at Panaya.

Our Change Intelligence platform fits Cognitus' SAP S/4HANA implementation methodology, in its Gallop Deployment package, like a glove.
