Australian SAP Gold Partners
Turn SAP decisions into delivery that works in your world
Your SAP conversations aren’t about software in the abstract. They’re about keeping plants running, networks stable, services funded and communities supported under real deadlines, real regulators and real scrutiny.
Discovery Consulting helps Australian organisations move from SAP uncertainty to delivery that actually fits their industry – with commercially independent advice on SAP RISE and GROW and the cloud choices around them, industry-fit implementations, and SAP BTP extensions that close the last-mile gaps in HR, payroll, leave and rostering.
The Reality for SAP Leaders Today
Your SAP decisions sit at the intersection of strategy, compliance and reputation.
- ECC timelines and S/4HANA pressure, with no single, agreed path forward.
- Vendors pushing different flavours of SAP RISE, GROW and cloud options with their own commercial agenda.
- Global consulting firms selling “best practice” templates that quietly assume a simple, unregulated business.
- Last-mile gaps in HR, payroll, leave and rostering that keep getting pushed into spreadsheets and manual workarounds.
The risk is simple.
You either commit to a direction without a clear, independent view – or you don’t commit at all, and technical debt continues to climb while options narrow.
When it’s time to deliver, “best practice” and industry templates are only safe starting points – they have to be reshaped for the realities of plants, networks, projects, classrooms and public scrutiny.
What Discovery Does
Discovery is a specialist SAP consultancy focused on helping complex, asset-intensive and service-centric organisations make good SAP decisions – and deliver them.
We bring three core capabilities together:
SAP Strategy & Advisory
For boards, executives and programme sponsors who need to move from noise to a defendable position.
- Commercially independent advice on SAP RISE and GROW and the cloud operating models behind them.
- Board-ready S/4HANA strategy, roadmap and investment cases.
- Current-state assessments that surface technical debt, risk and options in plain language.
SAP Implementation in Complex Industries
For organisations where “best practice” needs to coexist with regulation, safety and public accountability.
We design and deliver SAP so it reflects how your world actually runs – not how a template says it should.
- Programmes in Mining, Manufacturing, Construction, Utilities, Public Sector and Education.
- Industry-specific process and design patterns for asset management, projects, service, finance and HR.
- Focus on user adoption, compliance and audit-readiness, not just “go-live”.
SAP BTP Apps & Extensions for SAP Business Suite
For teams where standard SAP stops just short, leaving spreadsheets to carry the risk.
- We design, build and run SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) extensions that close real operational gaps in SAP SuccessFactors – securely, cleanly and upgrade-safe.
- Proven BTP products used in live environments today.
Extensions for leave, work schedules, casual workforce and safety management. - Designed to reduce manual effort, payroll risk and compliance exposure at scale.
SAP That Reflects Your Sector
Generic SAP messaging doesn’t reassure senior stakeholders in Mining, Manufacturing, Construction, Utilities, Public Sector or Education. They want to see their own operating realities reflected before they back a partner.
Discovery’s Industry Hub connects our SAP delivery approach to the sectors we serve. From the front page, your team can quickly see:
- How we think about SAP in each industry.
- The patterns we reuse across asset-intensive and service-centric organisations – safely.
Sector-specific pages that go deeper on scenarios, designs and outcomes.
Manufacturing
Production planning, supply chain, quality and finance all pulling in the same direction. We join up plant-floor systems and SAP so you can see, plan and control margins in real time.
Mining
Multi-site, asset-intensive operations with mine-to-port chains, strict safety and environmental obligations. We design SAP to support safe, predictable operations – not get in the way of them.
Construction
Project-based accounting, cost control, claims and subcontractor management. Our SAP designs focus on job costing, project visibility and cash-flow clarity for both project teams and commercial leads.
Utilities
Network and asset management at scale, under regulatory oversight and customer expectations. We design around network assets, regulatory reporting and customer obligations, so reliability and transparency are built in.
Public Sector
Funding models, probity and audit expectations under public scrutiny. We implement SAP in ways that respect accountability and value-for-money obligations while still enabling modern, efficient service delivery.
Education
Student, staff and funding models that cut across traditional “customer” views. We support both institutional governance and the day-to-day realities of campuses, timetables and student experience.
Cross-Industry Patterns We Reuse – Safely
Across asset-intensive and service-centric organisations we see recurring themes:
Maintenance and asset lifecycle management
Capital projects and portfolio management
Compliant Workforce management in 24/7 or seasonal environments
Complex billing and revenue recognition
Service performance, incident and case management
Discovery captures these into reusable designs, process patterns and accelerators that can be applied – with care – across sectors.
You get the benefit of proven patterns without being forced into someone else’s mould.
Talk to an SAP Lead in Your Industry
You can approach your next programme as a standard rollout and hope the template fits.
Or you can work with a partner that designs SAP around the realities of your industry from day one.
If you operate in Mining, Manufacturing, Construction, Utilities, Public Sector or Education, you already know that SAP change is not theoretical – it plays out in plants, networks, projects, classrooms and communities.
Share a little about your landscape, your current programme and what you are trying to achieve. We’ll connect you with an SAP lead in your sector and respond with sector-relevant ideas – not generalities.
