        I thought I had a meeting.

        However it appears I don't.

          Imagine a SAP system customised with probably 2000 man years of custom code over 15 years

          Now imagine a replacement with a promised 6 months delivery period and a client that won't compromise on requirements...

          End client doesn't comprehend the issue, outsourcer has committed to it...

              Replacing SAP with SAP or with something better else?

              And from memory, 2000 man years of custom code in SAP is about 3 lines.

                  And I bet it started off as a vanilla implementation which they were not going to customise - they were going to change their business processes to work with SAP.....

                  Just about to get down that rabbit hole here - should be a fun 6/12/18/24/36 months.

                    It's not SAP as I stated. However it's equally stupid.
