[Webinar Reply] Data Governance for SAP Users: Preparing for AI & RISE with SAP | with Jon Simmonds (SimpleMDG)

Jon Simmonds, VP of Consulting & Advisory Services at SimpleMDG, joins David Boeckle, CRO, and Stuart Rorer, AVP Strategy & Growth at Auritas, to explore why data quality and governance have become mission-critical for organizations navigating SAP transformation and AI adoption.

As companies move toward SAP S/4HANA and RISE with SAP, one thing is clear: governance cannot wait. Organizations that prioritize clean, reliable data early reduce complexity, accelerate migration timelines, and unlock the full value of AI and automation.

In this conversation, we cover:

• Why poor data quality remains the #1 barrier to AI success
• When and how to introduce governance in S/4HANA and RISE journeys 
• How SimpleMDG supports clean core strategies across hybrid environments
• The role of business users in sustaining governance—not just IT 
• Why SAP BTP enables scalable, modern governance frameworks

One key takeaway: technology alone doesn’t solve the problem. Success comes from aligning people, process, and technology. With Auritas bringing expertise in governance strategy and implementation, and SimpleMDG delivering the technology foundation, organizations can build a scalable, future-ready data strategy.

If your organization is preparing for S/4HANA, evaluating AI initiatives, or looking to improve data reliability, this conversation offers a clear and practical starting point.
