In this episode of the Configure IT Done podcast, host Bethany from Precision Sourcing sits down with guest Frank Magliozzi, SAP Digital Transformation Leader and veteran of more than 30 years in SAP delivery across Australia. Together they dive into the complexities of SAP Selective Data Transition (SDT), unpacking what SDT means, how it differs from Brownfield and Greenfield approaches, and why it’s such a hot topic for organisations rethinking their S/4HANA strategies. Frank shares practical case studies - including major migrations with Coles, Land Registry Services, and Fortescue Metals Group - showing how SDT helps businesses streamline transitions, manage vast data footprints, and unlock transformation with minimal disruption. The conversation explores the pros, cons, and hidden costs of each approach, the need for strategic planning, and critical pre-project steps for tackling legacy data. Listeners will also learn about resource requirements, best practices for combining in-house expertise with external SI partners, and vital lessons for ensuring business continuity and future innovation. Frank provides actionable advice on building a business case, navigating subscription costs, and leveraging SDT for AI-ready SAP landscapes. Whether you’re a CIO, transformation leader, or simply curious about SAP’s next evolution, this episode offers a wealth of real-world insights, candid advice, and expert perspective for anyone navigating complex ERP change.
