NTT DATA Business Solutions Launches ‘Zero Cost ACTIVATION’ Program, Bringing Embedded AI and Faster Modernization to Legacy ERP Users

CINCINNATI, OH / ACCESS Newswire / June 3, 2026 / NTT DATA Business Solutions today announced the expansion of its Zero Cost ACTIVATION program, a structured initiative that waives consulting fees for core SAP Cloud ERP activation services for qualified U.S. enterprises.

Designed for organizations looking to modernize without large up-front investments, Zero Cost ACTIVATION allows companies to focus resources on transformation and future growth, confidently adopting a robust, scalable SAP Cloud ERP platform.

Key features of the Zero Cost ACTIVATION program include:

• Fit-to-standard methodology: Aligns the organization’s processes with SAP best practices, avoiding legacy customizations and reducing complexity.

• Process redesign for operational excellence: Modernizes workflows to match industry standards and optimize efficiency from the outset.

• Rapid go-live acceleration: Enables a fast, controlled transition to SAP Cloud ERP, shortening the distance from investment to operational capability.

• Fixed, predefined activation scope: Ensures transparency, predictability, and speed by tightly governing the initial deployment phase.

• Embedded AI capabilities: Includes Joule, SAP’s AI solution to boost productivity, automate processes, and accelerate decision making from day one.

“Our goal is to make it easier for organizations to modernize their business infrastructure and embrace the advantages of SAP Cloud ERP, without facing prohibitive upfront consulting expenses,” said Jimmy Dickinson, Vice President of Industries at NTT DATA Business Solutions. “With Zero Cost ACTIVATION, we’re streamlining the path from legacy ERP systems to a standardized SAP Cloud ERP platform, helping clients move forward with confidence and focus their resources on innovation.”

For organizations currently operating on legacy ERP systems, Zero Cost ACTIVATION removes financial and operational barriers by waiving consulting fees for defined core activation services. The program is designed with clear qualification criteria and a disciplined governance structure to ensure a streamlined and sustainable move to a new, standardized SAP Cloud ERP platform with a limited, fixed activation scope. This approach enables companies to modernize efficiently, redirect resources to innovation, and position themselves for future growth with minimal upfront investment.
