PCG and Blackwyse Seal Strategic Partnership for Holistic SAP Transformations
Public Cloud Group (PCG) announces its official partnership with Blackwyse GmbH and its Sub-Brand Cloudwyse. The collaboration combines deep procedural SAP consulting with leading technological implementation expertise. The goal is to offer customers seamless support throughout the SAP lifecycle—from strategic process consulting and transformation approaches to technical implementation on the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) and in RISE with SAP environments.
PCG and Blackwyse have already been working together successfully on joint customer projects for two years. Successful projects in industrial and retail companies demonstrate how effectively the competencies of both companies interlock in practice. With this official partnership, this collaboration is now being strategically solidified and further expanded.
The Perfect Symbiosis for a Seamless SAP Transformation
The partnership addresses one of the biggest challenges for companies in the SAP environment: bridging the gap between functional process requirements and technological possibilities.
Blackwyse supports companies with deep SAP standard know-how as well as comprehensive cloud readiness and transformation consulting—covering both on-premises and GROW with SAP (Cloud ERP Public Edition). With a clear focus on the “Clean Core” strategy, Blackwyse advises customers on aligning their processes as closely as possible with the standard and developing tailored recommendations for specific requirements.
Cloudwyse expands this portfolio with implementation expertise in the SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud (GROW with SAP) area, accompanying customers on their path to modern, scalable cloud landscapes.
PCG complements this expertise with its technical strength in RISE with SAP (Cloud ERP Private Edition), SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP), and Business Data Connectivity. Where the standard ends, PCG steps in with cloud-native extensions, integrations, and data solutions without burdening the system’s core.
Together, they create an end-to-end offering that covers all aspects of modern SAP transformations—both functionally and technologically.
Comments on the Partnership
The operational shaping of the partnership is driven primarily by the domain experts from both companies.
“With Blackwyse, we have a partner at our side who understands SAP processes down to the smallest detail and speaks the language of the business departments,” says Philipp Richter, Business Unit Director SAP at PCG. “This procedural depth is the perfect foundation for our technological work. We can focus fully on implementation in RISE with SAP and the development of innovative extensions on the BTP, while Blackwyse ensures that the underlying processes are set up cleanly and sustainably. Our joint projects show that this exact combination makes the difference for customers.”
Frank Pupkes, Managing Director of Blackwyse GmbH, adds: “The best process consulting is of little use if the technical execution in the cloud doesn’t work. PCG delivers exactly the technological excellence we need for our customers. Together, we cover the entire spectrum: We ensure a ‘Clean Core’ and efficient standard processes, and PCG realizes the necessary extensions and integrations at the highest technical level. It is a partnership where the result for the customer is always greater than the sum of its parts.”
Shared Roots and Strategic Logic
The close connection between the two companies has grown historically: Thorsten Raquet, CEO of Public Cloud Group, is also the founder and shareholder of Blackwyse and Cloudwyse. Although he is not operationally active there, his vision laid the foundation for the current compatibility of the portfolios. However, the decision for the official partnership is based purely on the operational successes of the last two years.
“As the initiator of Blackwyse, I am naturally very familiar with the company’s DNA and high quality standards. But the actual driver for this partnership was not history, but the operational reality of our projects,” explains Thorsten Raquet, CEO of Public Cloud Group. “The teams at PCG, Blackwyse, and Cloudwyse have proven in practice that process excellence and cloud technology belong together. This partnership is the logical consequence to close a gap in our portfolio and offer our customers exactly the holistic SAP transformation that the market demands today.”
