SAP Integration Suite

Retire PI/PO before 2027 and build the integration layer your agents will run on.

Your SAP estate already talks to dozens of systems, partners, and cloud apps. We move that traffic off PI/PO and CPI NEO onto SAP Integration Suite, then design API, event, and B2B patterns that hold up under real volume. As one of the select partners in SAP's Migration Factory program, we retire legacy integration at SAP's internal pace and leave you a layer ready for the AI agent traffic coming next.

Why Mindset

Selected by SAP for the migration, deep enough to have shaped its tooling

SAP routes PI/PO retirement work through its Migration Factory, a select group of partners it onboards into the program. Mindset is on that list, and we went further than most by helping to extend SAP's own migration tooling.

  • SAP Migration Factory partner

    One of the select group of partners SAP brings into its PI/PO and CPI NEO migration program and routes assessments to. A program you are onboarded into, not a badge you buy.

  • SAP BTP Expert, Integration specialization

    The SAP Partner Finder competency for Integration Suite specifically, not general BTP. Backed by a deep bench of integration architects.

  • We helped extend SAP's migration tooling

    Mindset worked directly with SAP engineering to make SAP's open-source CPI-NEO-to-Cloud-Foundry converter run on Cloud Foundry, then used it to auto-migrate 251 iFlows for Lucid Motors.

  • First US-based SAP AppHaus partner, SAP Gold Partner

    A design-and-build credential most integration partners don't hold, so the interfaces we ship are usable and governed, not just connected.

The clock is real: SAP ends mainstream maintenance for PI/PO in 2027, and CPI NEO is already being retired.

Why now

PI/PO ends in 2027, and integration is no longer just data moving between systems.

The reality

  • SAP PI/PO hits end of mainstream maintenance in 2027.
  • CPI NEO is being retired, meaning even teams already on the cloud have a forced cutover coming up.
  • Most landscapes have an accidental architecture: PI/PO, point-to-point scripts, and tools like Apache NiFi stacked up as technical debt.
  • No one has a clean inventory. Interface counts are guessed in spreadsheets, and the SAP assessment tool understates complexity on the largest estates.

What changes

  • A real inventory first

    We connect to PI/PO and extract every interface, adapter, and message type, then sort them into migration buckets so the plan is built on facts.

  • Pattern-based migration

    We map your interfaces to a standardized pattern library (ERP-to-third-party, data sync, file transfer, B2B) and run them in parallel, not one at a time.

  • Modern architecture, not a copy

    We provide API-led and event-driven design aligned to Clean Core, so you're not rebuilding the same brittle interfaces in a newer tool.

  • Migration Factory pace

    As one of SAP's select Migration Factory partners, we retire PI/PO at SAP-internal speed, with the accelerators and tooling the program carries.

  • Ready for agent traffic

    We build A2A and MCP-ready flows now, so when agents need to call your SAP processes, the integration layer is already there and governed.

  • Governed cutover

    Transport management, parallel runs, and a phased go-live mean production switches over without a struggle.

Our view

Since SAP unified BTP into the SAP Business AI Platform, Integration Suite carries more than system-to-system data. With the A2A protocol now bidirectional and MCP servers exposing tools to agents, your integration layer is the road every agent drives on, so it pays to build it right the first time.

Capabilities

What we actually do inside Integration Suite

We deliver Integration Suite work across manufacturing, distribution, energy, and beyond, from net-new API practices to full PI/PO retirements. Here's where teams ask us in.

Integration assessment and roadmap

Before any build, we map what you have and what it will take to move it. The assessment is free.

  • Secure extraction of every PI/PO and CPI interface into a catalog
  • Complexity, volume, and dependency analysis per interface
  • A sequenced roadmap with effort estimates and a guaranteed cost

PI/PO and CPI NEO migration

The core engagement: getting off legacy runtimes before they go dark.

  • Pattern-based migration with parallel development for speed
  • Reusable retry and error-handling frameworks for resilient interfaces
  • Phased, parallel-run cutover built for minimal downtime

API Management

Governed, reusable APIs instead of one-off connections.

  • API proxies, policies, and a developer portal
  • Reusable business APIs across SAP and non-SAP systems
  • Security, rate limiting, and versioning that survives audit

Event-driven integration with Event Mesh

Real-time, loosely coupled flows for processes that cannot wait on batch.

  • Event streaming for supply chain, finance, and manufacturing
  • Decoupled producers and consumers that scale independently
  • Patterns that feed real-time apps and reporting

B2B, EDI, and partner connectivity

The trading-partner traffic that keeps orders and invoices moving.

  • EDI and B2B onboarding for customers and vendors
  • IDoc, file/SFTP, and modern REST/SOAP patterns side by side
  • Trading partner management and monitoring

Agent-ready integration (A2A and MCP)

Where Integration Suite is going, and where we are already building.

  • MCP servers that expose SAP processes to agents under control
  • Bidirectional A2A flows between SAP and external agents
  • AI-enriched iFlows for validation, anomaly checks, and decisions

Hybrid and multi-cloud connectivity

Tying the cloud back to what still runs on-prem.

  • Cloud-to-on-prem via Cloud Connector with secure tunnels
  • Integration across hyperscalers and third-party systems
  • High-throughput handling for transactional and bulk data
MIND · our toolchain

MIND goes deepest in Integration Suite

MIND is the proprietary set of accelerators our consultants run on every engagement. It's richest here, because Integration Suite is where we have run the most migrations, and each one sharpens the next.

Explore the MIND toolchain
  1. Interface inventory extractor Connects to PI/PO and CPI and pulls every interface, adapter, and message type into a scored catalog, so the plan is built on facts, not a spreadsheet guess.
  2. Migration pattern library ERP-to-third-party, data sync, file transfer, and B2B/EDI patterns. We map each legacy interface to a modern one and build them in parallel, not one at a time.
  3. Reusable retry and error-handling framework Resilient iFlows that recover from transient failures on their own. At Lucid Motors, it covered 49 interfaces, with zero retry failures since go-live.
  4. SAP's migration tool, extended with SAP We worked with SAP engineering to get SAP's open-source CPI-NEO-to-Cloud-Foundry converter running on Cloud Foundry, then auto-migrated 251 legacy iFlows with it. The tool is SAP's, not ours.
Real impact

Migrations that already landed

We have done SAP Integration Suite work across enterprise landscapes in manufacturing, distribution, energy, and more, from full PI/PO and CPI NEO migrations to net-new API and event practices. The ones we can name:

Automotive

Lucid MotorsLucid Motors

When SAP announced the retirement of the CPI NEO runtime, Lucid's entire integration landscape was at risk. We built a dedicated BTP sub-account on Cloud Foundry and migrated all 65 business-critical iFlows across EDI, foreign trade, order management, and e-commerce. A reusable retry framework now covers 49 of those interfaces, with zero retry failures since go-live.

65 interfaces

migrated off deprecated CPI NEO with zero downtime

Distribution

Border StatesBorder States

Border States ran an accidental architecture of Apache NiFi and PI/PO workloads that had become expensive technical debt. We profiled 30+ legacy integrations, built a standardized pattern library, and ran development in parallel to migrate them all in 22 weeks at 40% lower cost and a 100% success rate. They decommissioned NiFi and made Integration Suite their strategic platform. One tool built on it cut a 100-line order from about two hours to about two minutes.

How we engage

Assess, migrate, govern

A migration stalls when discovery drags or when interfaces get rebuilt one at a time. We front-load the inventory and run the build in parallel.

  1. Phase 1

    Assess

    Up to 2 weeks

    We connect to PI/PO, extract a full interface catalog, score complexity and volume, and sort interfaces into migration buckets. You leave with a roadmap, an effort estimate, and a guaranteed cost.

  2. Phase 2

    Design and plan

    2-3 weeks

    We build the BTP sub-account with dev, test, and prod separation, secure connectivity, and role-based access. Then we define the API, event, and B2B patterns each interface will move to.

  3. Phase 3

    Build and migrate

    varies by scope

    We run development in parallel against the pattern library, with reusable retry and error handling baked in. It's roughly 20 weeks for a 100-interface estate versus 32 weeks the traditional way.

  4. Phase 4

    Test and cut over

    2-4 weeks

    We run unit, end-to-end, and UAT cycles with your functional experts, then a phased parallel-run go-live and hypercare. The point is no surprises in production.

Common questions

Questions teams ask before they start

When does PI/PO actually end?
SAP's end of mainstream maintenance for PI/PO is 2027. That's close enough that a full migration, which can run several months for a real estate, needs to be on the roadmap now. CPI NEO is being retired too, so even teams already in the cloud have a cutover ahead of them.
How long does a migration take?
It depends on interface count and complexity, but a 100-interface estate runs roughly 20 weeks our way versus about 32 traditionally. We get there with a full inventory up front and parallel development against a pattern library, not by cutting corners on testing.
Why Mindset over another SAP partner?
We're one of the select partners SAP onboards into its Migration Factory program for retiring PI/PO. We also hold an SAP BTP Expert competency with Integration as a specialization on SAP Partner Finder. We've delivered Integration Suite migrations and builds across many enterprise landscapes, including full PI/PO and CPI NEO migrations for Lucid Motors and Border States.
Do you just move the interfaces as-is?
No. A straight lift-and-shift rebuilds the same brittle interfaces in a newer tool. We redesign to API-led and event-driven patterns aligned to Clean Core, so the result is an integration layer worth keeping, not a copy of the old one.
What does agent-ready integration mean for us?
Since Sapphire 2026, Integration Suite carries agent traffic as well as data. With the A2A protocol bidirectional and MCP servers exposing tools safely, we can build flows now that let agents call your SAP processes under governance. You don't have to act on it today, but building toward it means you're not re-platforming again in two years.
Who should do the migration: an SI, a hybrid team, or our own people?
Most teams land on a hybrid: we run the assessment, the pattern library, and the hardest interfaces, while your people learn the platform alongside us and own the long tail. Pure-internal stalls on the 2027 clock. Pure-outsourced leaves you unable to maintain what you bought. We staff for the handoff from day one.
What if we don't finish before the end of 2027?
Mainstream maintenance ends December 31, 2027. SAP offers extended maintenance to December 31, 2030 at a premium, so you're not off a cliff, but you're paying more to run something with no future. The right move is to start the assessment now (it is only a few weeks), get a real interface inventory and a phased plan, and migrate the critical traffic first so the deadline stops being a risk.
