Most organisations go into SAP transformation expecting the SI to handle delivery. What they underestimate is how much work sits on the client side — and how exposed they are without experienced, independent leadership to own it.
The Business Integrator model is how Limelight fills that gap. It covers every workstream the SI cannot objectively run on your behalf — from programme governance and data management to business change, process design, and benefits realisation.
The Limelight founding team had spent decades inside SAP programmes. Running them, rescuing them, and watching well-funded organisations spend tens of millions and come away with less than they planned for.
The technology was rarely the problem. The problem was structural — organisations going into transformation without the client-side capability to run it. Most don't have it. Most don't know what they don't know until it's too late.
The Limelight team provided experience based, pragmatic leadership in addition to detailed knowledge and methods in SAP implementation and deployment.

An eye for detail, sound technical knowledge and ease of managing such a big & complex programme - The team at Limelight exceeded expectations all around !! Whether it was senior stakeholders or business level engagement, everybody was involved with ease. Neil and the team ensured that all work-streams have a robust plan and stick to it as well.

CEO - Synthomer
Neil was an extremely valuable asset and quickly became trusted at all levels of the organisation. His in-depth knowledge, programme management skills and ability to effectively communicate with all stakeholders was critical to delivering the transformation programme. He got the best from both his team and our team, was firm but yet totally approachable.
