SOA PEOPLE

What SOA PEOPLE does

SOA People SA is a privately held Belgian-headquartered SAP Platinum Partner that delivers end-to-end SAP consulting, implementation, and managed services to mid-to-large enterprises across Europe and Turkey. The company is 100% dedicated to the SAP ecosystem and operates through wholly-owned subsidiaries in Belgium, France, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Poland, Sweden, and Turkey, supporting more than 400 clients with a 24/7 support center staffed by 60+ certified consultants. Its customer base spans consumer industries (food & beverage, life sciences, wholesale distribution), services (rental, professional services), energy & chemicals, discrete manufacturing, and the public sector, including named references such as Panasonic, Honda, Solvay, Bridgestone, ABN AMRO ABF, Boels Rental, and the State of Fribourg.

The company's commercial offering combines traditional SAP services (S/4HANA and ERP Cloud implementation, migration, SuccessFactors, BTP, SAP Cloud ALM, hosting) with three proprietary product platforms. Ready4 Asset Management provides SAP-integrated maintenance and field-service scheduling. Ready4 Credit Management is an SAP-embedded suite covering credit reports, risk management, credit insurance, dispute management, debt collection, and factoring, with direct XML integrations to agencies and banks such as Creditreform, IHD, BNP Paribas, Eurofactor, and Commerzbank. Performer is an award-winning cloud value-management platform that benchmarks performance across 2,500 KPIs and 1,000+ S/4HANA features, with dedicated modules for S/4HANA migration roadmaps and SAP security audit. SOA People also sells its own migration automation tool, mignow, used to accelerate S/4HANA technical conversions.

Revenue is generated across four streams: SAP consulting and integration services (project-based), recurring subscription revenue from the Performer and Ready4 platforms, managed services via the 24/7 support center, and SAP Cloud hosting. The company pursues a sales-led enterprise GTM combining direct field sales with SAP PartnerEdge referral and co-selling, and grows primarily through a Buy & Build M&A strategy — completed acquisitions include Inventy (Performer platform), ENTEA (Sweden), COZUMEVI (Turkey, 2023-05), Cormeta AG (2017), 2BM A/S (Denmark), KBJ S.A. (Poland), and Condivo AB (Sweden). SOA People Academy supports internal talent certification and customer enablement.
