More information
SAP LeanIX, founded in Bonn, Germany in 2012 and acquired by SAP in November 2023, centralizes an organization‘s applications, technology components, risks, and roadmaps in one repository. For M&A integration teams, this matters because combining two companies usually means combining two IT landscapes — LeanIX maps both, flags redundant or end-of-life systems, and builds a roadmap for rationalization and modernization. The platform‘s three core products (Application Portfolio Management, Technology Risk and Compliance, and Architecture and Roadmap Planning) cover the cycle from documenting the as-is landscape through executing a target-state transformation, with AI features assisting in inventory building and content generation along the way.
