SAPinsider has published an interview with Arul Arogyanathan, Chief Revenue Officer at Business Core Solutions and Founding CEO of ProxyN. The piece, Breaking the ROI Barrier, looks at why Australian SAP customers keep deferring modernisation, and how BCS and ProxyN help them modernise on their own terms.
What the interview covers
- Why ROI decides the order of investment. Australian organisations are weighing 2-year SAP programmes against AI initiatives that promise a return within 12 months. Arogyanathan estimates that about 7 in 10 of the customers he speaks with plan to use the extended maintenance window to 2030.
- How BCS shortens modernisation. As an agentic system integrator, BCS aims to cut SAP modernisation timelines and costs by around two-thirds, with Symphony, deKorvai and Anugal carrying orchestration, data migration and identity governance.
- Why smaller journeys get funded. Splitting the programme into parallel journeys, such as moving HCM to SAP SuccessFactors ahead of the core ERP move, makes modernisation easier to start. Consolidating support vendors releases savings for the next stage.
- Where ProxyN fits. Agentic blueprints for SAP Joule users bring a new agent into production in 4 to 6 weeks instead of 3 to 6 months.
“People are making big transformation projects at lower priority.” Arul Arogyanathan, in SAPinsider, November 2026
