Assignment Description: F4F Phase-out SAP IS-U | Fit4Future Asset Program
Role: Project Manager Phase-out SAP IS-U

Alliander context
The Netherlands runs on energy. And completely on renewable energy by 2050. It is up to the network companies and all our partners to help make this energy transition possible. And we are working hard to do so. For example, by managing and adapting our energy networks. By providing data and services that our customers, governments and partners need. We do this so that everyone who needs energy - or can provide it - can or gets it. And at the same time, we ensure that the energy system as a whole remains reliable, affordable and accessible to everyone. Now and in the more sustainable Netherlands of tomorrow. Serving our customers and achieving our goals requires a future-proof and robust provision of information.

Alliander made an early commitment to digitalization to facilitate the energy transition, with teams developing, implementing and managing digitalization products. Examples include apps for mechanics and municipalities and advanced algorithms for investment optimization and to prevent bottlenecks in the energy grid. For part of our information provision, however, we are still dependent on outdated systems with complex interfaces and data that is difficult to access. This is why we are going to spend 5 years replacing and renewing core IT systems.

it4Future
Alliander has launched a program called Fit4Future to prepare the IT foundation for the future. Fit4Future consists of four separate (but complementary) programs; 1) ERP, 2) Data, 3) IAM and 4) Asset.

This assignment concerns a project in the Asset program. The Asset program aims to introduce a new, standardized asset registration process with a future fixed Asset IT landscape. To achieve this, different systems will be implemented.

Project F4F Phase-out SAP IS-U
Alliander uses the SAP IS-U system to support the business processes related to customer management, connection management, usage management and billing processes. Due to the end-of-life by 2027, it is important that the migration of the various business processes in SAP IS-U be migrated to the target architecture in a timely manner. The project is responsible for ensuring that the migration to the target architecture takes place in a controlled manner using an approach to be determined. It is important for service continuity that business processes E2E be migrated to the target systems. The migration of data can be part of the project scope to the extent it is not already assigned to other (data) teams. There will have to be cooperation and coordination with the standing organization as well as other program parts within the Fit4Future program.
