Role Summary

Our client is seeking an experienced SAP consultant with strong project or program management expertise to conduct an independent third-party assessment of an ongoing SAP ECC implementation. The organization is migrating from Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 to SAP ECC and requires an objective evaluation ahead of an upcoming Go/No-Go decision.

The assignment will assess the project's current status, maturity, risks, dependencies, and delivery readiness. The consultant will determine whether the necessary conditions are in place to achieve upcoming milestones and will provide practical recommendations to reduce risk and maintain project progress.

• Evaluate project status, maturity, governance, risks, dependencies, and delivery readiness.
• Identify critical risks, capability or delivery gaps, and issues that could affect upcoming milestones.
• Assess the project's readiness for an upcoming Go/No-Go decision.
• Develop clear recommendations and a prioritized action plan for risk mitigation and continued delivery.
• Prepare and deliver an independent final assessment report by the specified deadline.
• Report findings to steering committees, management teams, and other senior decision-makers.
• Work closely with the local organization and existing project management team, providing advice and support throughout the implementation process.

• Target ERP platform: SAP ECC.
• Legacy ERP platform: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009.
• Extensive knowledge of large-scale SAP implementations and complex ERP transformation programs.
• Proven ability to perform independent project reviews, project health checks, and Quality Assurance assessments.
• Strong project or program governance, risk assessment, milestone-readiness evaluation, and executive reporting capabilities.

The consultant must be a senior SAP Project Manager or Program Manager with documented experience delivering or overseeing major SAP implementations and transformation programs. Previous experience with SAP ECC and complex ERP migrations is required, as is a strong track record of conducting independent project assessments, health checks, or Quality Assurance engagements.

Full professional fluency in both Swedish and English, spoken and written, is mandatory.
