RISE with SAP: seven points to check before you sign
RISE contracts bundle software, infrastructure and services. Seven checkpoints that are most often underestimated in practice.

RISE with SAP simplifies a lot — but not the contract review. These seven points are the ones most often underestimated in practice.
- Service scope: which services are included, which cost extra?
- Sizing: does the calculation basis match your actual usage and growth?
- Term and price adjustment: how do costs develop over the full term?
- Exit: what happens to data and systems at the end of the contract?
- Service levels: which availability is committed — and what follows if it is missed?
- Extensions: how are additional systems and capacity priced?
- Responsibility boundaries: where does SAP’s responsibility end and yours — and your integrator’s — begin?
An independent second opinion answers these questions within a few days and delivers concrete points for renegotiation.
