SAP Landscape Transformation, in SAP's dictionary, describes such projects that require significant changes to operational SAP systems with years of transactional data already accumulated. These projects can be characterized as IT realignment projects following a radical business-driven change and often entail having or wanting to change existing, historical data.
The driver for such projects are typically changes in business requirements, restructuring of large organizations following a merger, acquisition or divestiture or simply an internal restructuring such as restructuring or consolidating of business units or business functions.
