What is Emixa PreFab for SAP S/4HANA and Why Does It Future-Proof Manufacturing?

Manufacturers worldwide are under pressure to innovate, standardise, and scale quickly in an increasingly digital, globalised landscape. At the same time, many still face the challenge of implementing complex ERP systems without disrupting day-to-day operations. That’s where Emixa PreFab for SAP S/4HANA comes in—a ready-to-deploy, best-practice solution built to accelerate ERP transformation and enable future-ready manufacturing.
What is Emixa PreFab for SAP S/4HANA?
Emixa PreFab for SAP S/4HANA is a pre-configured, industry-specific implementation framework designed to speed up the transition to SAP S/4HANA for manufacturing companies. It combines Emixa’s deep manufacturing expertise with standardised SAP best practices, ensuring a faster, more cost-effective, and lower-risk deployment.
Unlike traditional ERP implementations, which are often lengthy and complex, PreFab enables manufacturers to go live with a solid foundation in weeks - not months - while keeping scalability and flexibility in mind.
Who benefits from using Emixa PreFab?
Discrete and process manufacturers, especially those with ambitious digital transformation goals, stand to gain the most. PreFab is ideal for:
