For organisations implementing or upgrading any SAP products with simple or complex requirements, our breadth of experience is hard to beat. We’re focused entirely on finding solutions with the perfect balance of control and empowerment, on time and on budget.

Problems we solve

There is no definitive right way to do SAP security but there are plenty of ways not to do it. This has always been the case but with the way SAP technology has evolved with differing techniques for securing various solutions, getting it right has never been as important as it is today. The impact of getting it wrong could mean security risks with a worst case scenario of fraud occurring. If the wrong level of control is implemented, business efficiency could suffer and costs could spiral.

Solutions we offer

  • We’ve completed several S/4 HANA projects, both greenfield implementations and upgrades to S/4 HANA from ECC. We were responsible for what we think is the world’s biggest S/4 big bang implementation to date.

  • Our bread and butter for many a year, we’ve completed many implementations and upgrades for clients on small scale and large scale projects.

  • We’ve come across many reasons why clients need to re-implement a role design but by and large the various reasons boil down to the original model not satisfying control or ongoing access demands or becoming increasingly costly to maintain.

    Our re-design projects have ranged from very big to small and are always designed with the business in mind, ensuring compliance is built in and that it will be easy and cost effective to maintain going forward.

  • Our people focused approach really comes into its own when implementing GRC as one of the most important considerations is how this additional technology gets embedded into existing business processes for best effect and adopted by your people. Without incorporating all this into your GRC solution design, it won’t be effective and you’ll struggle to achieve the full RoI.

  • Misunderstood by many but perfected by Pumpkin! There is more than meets the eye to HR security but our experience here not only stands us in good stead to deliver expected outcomes but also see’s us innovating to overcome inherent limitations of how SAP standard HR security works so our solutions often surpass expectations.

    Five ways to improve SAP HR security

  • Whether in a standalone system or embedded in S/4 with the latest release, companies making and selling products rely on a good TM solution to streamline their logistics.

    Authorisation issues here can be business crippling not to mention costly. Pumpkin make sure you don't have any.

  • A cloud based planning tool, IBP can be incredibly challenging with seemingly endless possibilities for restriction. Our consultants know their permission filters from their attribute permissions, and their key figures from their operators, making us market leaders for robust IBP SAP security solutions.

  • If you’re opening your SAP landscape to external suppliers, what could possibly go wrong?

    The answer - quite a lot if you don’t engage experts like Pumpkin to do it properly. We’ve designed roles to ensure the supplier life cycle doesn't become a death spiral.

  • What is a company without its customers? And what is a good CRM solution without good SAP security?

    Pumpkin have implemented numerous elegant SAP security designs to support SAP CRM systems and would love to add yours to our list of success stories.

  • Two letters that can strike fear in the heart of many security and non-security people alike. BW doesn’t have to be challenging, and don't believe the people who tell you it has to be.

    We have been working with SAP BW for over 20 years, and yes, we are not afraid of analysis authorisations.
