Marathon Petroleum | Oil, Gas and Chemicals | 18300 | $138.9B | United States | SAP | SAP S/4 HANA | ERP Financial | 2018 | Marathon Petroleum implemented SAP S/4 HANA in 2018 as a greenfield consolidation program, combining Andeavor Energy’s S4 HANA instance and Marathon’s SAP ERP ECC 6.0 into a new 1909 S4 instance. The initiative focused on core finance capabilities within the ERP Financial category and reached go-live mid-2018. The SAP S/4 HANA implementation involved extensive custom development, delivering nearly 800 ABAP RICEFW objects and building more than 200 interfaces. Functional configuration and development work emphasized finance and payments automation, including architecting automated daily payment runs for ACH and EFT to Andeavor's house bank, Adobe form development for customer notifications, ALV reporting, object oriented ABAP for complex validations, and tools to catalog CDS views to reduce duplication. Integration architecture centralized inbound and outbound flows using SAP Application Integration Framework to aggregate interfaces into a single hub, standardize mapping and conversion, and reduce repetitive development effort. Integration mapping and technical specifications were indexed in a ServiceNow knowledge base, and a transport tracking report was created to monitor code movement across environments, supporting B2B integration wellness and SOX relevant documentation. Development governance and program management were formalized under an internal SAP development lead, with Marathon managing development teams from SAP and Accenture, engaging Opportune as an SI VAR, and coordinating a managed service provider for production support. Governance practices implemented included coding standards, naming conventions, documentation mandates, capacity planning, weekly production change reviews, and formal handoffs to production support. Operational scope covered development, finance, and production support organizations, with day to day leadership of seven FTEs and three contractors and oversight of an extended development team exceeding eighty resources onsite and offshore during peak activity. The implementation emphasized maintainability and process controls in the SAP S/4 HANA ERP Financial environment through searchable technical and functional specifications, transport tracking, and structured knowledge management. | |
