Oil, Gas and Chemicals | 12000 | $5.2B | Norway | SAP | SAP S/4 HANA | ERP Financial | 2018 |
In 2018, Aker Solutions implemented SAP S/4 HANA as an ERP Financial platform, initiating a finance-centered program to establish a centralized finance backbone while supporting broader digital strategies across the organisation. The initial deployment targeted Simple Finance S4HANA 1609 to standardize core accounting and financial reporting capabilities within the ERP Financial scope.
The implementation emphasized conversion, rigorous testing and integrations, with configuration work focused on ledger processes, accounting close workflows and financial reporting functions typical of ERP Financial systems. Further SAP modules were provisioned, including customer relationship management and equipment tools management solutions, and multiple complementary applications were implemented to augment the SAP ERP installation.
Integrations and interface validation were treated as core activities, with explicit workstreams for conversion and integration testing. Rollout activity extended beyond headquarters, with SAP implementation work completed in China, Saudi Arabia and Brunei, and additional deployments for a new software company iX3 in the UK and Norway in 2020.
Cognizant served as the system integrator and project management roles were established to manage the cloud migration, conversion programs and testing lifecycles. Governance concentrated on coordinated conversion cutovers, test orchestration and integration validation across finance and CRM process areas to ensure consistent operational coverage.

Oil, Gas and Chemicals | 12000 | $5.2B | Norway | SAP | SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll | Payroll | 2019 |
In 2019, Aker Solutions implemented SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll, establishing a Payroll solution to rationalize HR and payroll data and support a phased move to cloud-based HR services. The engagement emphasized a hybrid architecture, retaining on premise SAP HCM while progressively shifting master HR and payroll processing to SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll, with Cognizant acting as the system integrator and program management partner.
The implementation focused on configuring Employee Central Payroll processing, automated payroll workflows, and reporting capabilities, while aligning Aker Solutions’ skill and competency framework to SuccessFactors to create a robust foundation for Talent Management. SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll was configured to support mobile enablement and state of the art reporting, enhancing user experience through workflow automation and role based access.
Integration work centered on rationalizing transactional and master data between on premise SAP HCM and SuccessFactors, implementing bidirectional data flows and reconciliation checkpoints to derisk the move to cloud in controlled phases. The deployment architecture reflected a hybrid topology during transition, with data governance and synchronization layers designed to preserve payroll accuracy and compliance as payroll functions were centralized in Employee Central Payroll.
Governance and rollout were structured around phased adoption, process standardization and competency alignment, with a PMC model overseeing delivery and lean nearshore and offshore teams executing configuration, testing and cutover activities. Change management activities prioritized competency framework mapping into SuccessFactors and operationalizing automated workflows to support HR and payroll business functions.
Outcomes articulated in the solution tenets included cost savings through the PMC model and lean nearshore and offshore delivery, along with improved user experience and a strengthened talent management foundation. The program retained a deliberate, phased approach to cloud migration to reduce risk while establishing SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll as the core Payroll platform for Aker Solutions.

In 2015 AmBank upgraded its Temenos T24 Core Banking platform from R07 to R18, executing an enterprise-level version upgrade of Temenos T24 across its retail and commercial banking operations in Malaysia. The engagement focused on moving the bank to the R18 release while preserving bank-specific configurations and core banking functionality such as accounts, transaction processing, and deposit workflows consistent with Core Banking expectations.
Cognizant participated as the systems integrator on the upgrade team, executing a structured technical program that reviewed and revised existing T24 code for R18 compatibility and coding standards. The team converted services, jobs, and screens as part of the release transition, performed test upgrades from R07 to R18, and conducted iterative unit testing cycles to surface and remediate defects.
Governance for the program emphasized compatibility assurance and traceable remediation, with documented findings from unit tests and test upgrades used to drive code changes and validate adherence to coding standards. The implementation narrative centers on configuration and code-level modernization within Temenos T24, controlled test-upgrade sequencing, and disciplined defect documentation to support the bankwide R18 deployment.
