New Frontiers for SAP, GRC & ERP in the Post-Cloud Era

Summer may be a time to pause, but for IT and business leaders, it’s time to look ahead. What needs to be launched this fall to remain agile, compliant, and competitive in the face of accelerating technological, industrial, and regulatory shifts?

As we move into the second half of 2025, one thing is clear: yesterday’s certainties are no longer enough. Innovation is now rooted in real usage. Architectures are becoming composable. AI no longer just observes—it acts. In the face of this rapidly evolving landscape, businesses need to revise their strategies—quickly, but with clarity.

Disruptions, Not Just Evolutions: The Real Technological Shift Is Here
2025 marks a pivotal moment in the way ERP and GRC environments are designed. This is no longer just about cloud migration or classic automation—what’s happening is a structural reconfiguration.

ERP Becomes Composable and Context-Aware
Businesses no longer want rigid, monolithic systems. Today, they expect ERPs that can adapt in real time to business priorities, easily integrate specialized external modules, and communicate seamlessly with industry-specific tools.
SAP has fully embraced this direction, strengthening SAP BTP, introducing Joule (its native generative AI), and expanding into microservices.

AI Is No Longer a Side Project
It is now embedded at the core of business processes:

  • automatic recommendations in SAP,

  • scenario generation in risk governance,

  • personalized alerts for sensitive access.
    AI becomes a true co-pilot—not just a passive observer.

Cybersecurity Becomes Native
Far from being a technical silo, cybersecurity is now interwoven into business flows: identity management, control automation, and regulatory compliance (NIS2, GDPR, CRA…).
Boundaries between IAM, IGA, and GRC are dissolving in favor of unified governance.

What Companies Must Tackle Starting This Fall


Fall 2025 reshuffles the deck:

  • Technology governance must be rethought to accommodate a hybrid mix of cloud, on-premise, AI, and data analytics.

  • Smart prioritization is key: which initiatives should launch now to deliver value by 2026—without breaking the budget?

  • Sustainability must be embedded: CSRD requires ESG to be managed directly within the ERP (emissions, social indicators, energy footprint, etc.).

In other words: transformation is no longer about grand declarations—it’s about the ability to deploy agile, efficient, and real-world solutions.
