SAP licence governance, with evidence before signature.

Unnati is an independent SAP licence management and governance advisory based in Johannesburg. We advise Africa's large enterprises on what they hold, what they pay, and what they sign next.

Publisher estates we work across
The platform behind the advice

Advisory you can audit

Most advisory arrives as a deck and an opinion. Ours runs on a governance platform we built for SAP commercial work, and it holds us to rules most consultancies only promise.

The platform runs inside every Unnati SAP engagement. Your team sees the same evidence we do, and keeps it after we leave. It is the engine behind our SAP licence management and governance service.

Every number carries its source

The platform will not hold a figure without a document behind it. A number quoted in a meeting is not evidence until the paper arrives. Exposure is always stated as a range, never a single point.

Findings stay separate from recommendations

A finding states what is true and where it is written. A recommendation is our advice, clearly marked as advice. Your board always knows which is which.

Bill of Material lines tested one by one

Product, metric, quantity, price: each line mapped to your rollout plan. Lines that bill ahead of use get flagged. So does the more dangerous case, architecture with no line behind it.

A register of what was asked and what arrived

Every document request is tracked from asked to received. “The vendor confirmed it” is not the same as holding the agreement. The register keeps saying requested until the paper is on file.

20-40%

of enterprise software spend is recoverable.

Unused licences, duplicate tooling and unmanaged renewals, across the estates we are brought in to review.

Where enterprise value leaks

Unchecked software spend

Licences bought for headcount that changed, tools that duplicate each other, renewals that auto-extend unreviewed.

Technology that never lands

Platforms are bought, half-deployed, then quietly abandoned. Adoption is the work, not the licence.

Strategy without execution

Strategies stay in the deck. The distance from boardroom to operations is measured in years of lost ground.

Audit and compliance exposure

Publisher audits are rising. Penalties across Africa regularly run into seven figures.

Unnati closes the gap between investment and impact

We work at the intersection of technology, process, and strategy, bringing the discipline of global enterprise consulting to African markets.

A methodology built for enterprise realities

Every engagement follows a structured delivery framework, rigorous enough for enterprise governance and agile enough to move at pace.

Step 1
Diagnose

Deep discovery of your current state: technology, process, spend, and strategic intent. We don't assume; we investigate.

Step 2
Design

Co-create a solution architecture and delivery plan. Roadmaps grounded in your operational constraints and business objectives.

Step 3
Deliver

Structured implementation with milestone governance, executive visibility, and zero surprises. We own outcomes, not just outputs.

Step 4
Embed

Knowledge transfer, capability building, and ongoing advisory. Value that stays in your organisation long after our engagement ends.
