Adjust CloudTPM to your needs

for sap customers

SAP TPM is being discontinued. Here's your next step.

SAP is ending support for its Trade Promotion Management module. CloudTPM is the natural successor — purpose-built for SAP environments, deployable in weeks, and designed to protect every investment you've made in your existing infrastructure.

SAP TPM end-of-support is approaching!

Don't let an SAP deadline put your promotion processes at risk. CloudTPM is already trusted by SAP customers across FMCG and retail — and NSP's team has the implementation track record to prove it.

Why CloudTPM is the right move from SAP

Native SAP integration

CloudTPM connects directly to your SAP ERP and S/4HANA environment. No middleware, no custom connectors — your data flows as it always has.

Your data, intact

Migrate your historical promotion data, baselines, and customer hierarchies without data loss or manual rework. We've done it before.

Familiar logic, modern UI

CloudTPM mirrors SAP TPM concepts — planning cycles, fund management, settlement — so your team gets up to speed fast.

How migration works

/01

Discovery & scoping
Map your current SAP TPM environment.
NSP audits your existing SAP TPM configuration, data landscape, and integration points. You receive a detailed migration plan — including timeline, scope, and cost — before any work begins. Typical duration: weeks 1–2.

/02

Data migration & integration
Move your data and connect CloudTPM to SAP.
Historical promotion data, customer master data, fund structures, and baselines are migrated and validated. The SAP integration is configured and tested against your actual business workflows — no data loss, no manual rework. Typical duration: weeks 3–6.

/03

Parallel run & user training
Run both systems side by side and train your team.
CloudTPM operates in parallel with your SAP environment. Your team trains on live data — real promotions, real accounts — so there are no surprises on go-live day. NSP facilitates hands-on workshops tailored to each user group. Typical duration: weeks 7–8.

/04

Go-live & hypercare
Switch over and maintain full business continuity.
CloudTPM becomes your system of record. NSP remains on-call throughout the hypercare period to resolve any issues within hours. Most customers reach full operational maturity — including closed promotions and settled claims — within 30 days of go-live.
New to trade promotion management

Promotions are costing more than they should. Here's why.

Most FMCG and retail companies spend 15–20% of revenue on trade promotions — yet fewer than 30% can accurately measure whether those promotions actually worked. CloudTPM changes that.

What is Trade Promotion Management?

Trade Promotion Management (TPM) is a category of software that helps consumer goods companies plan, execute, and analyse their trade promotions — discounts, in-store campaigns, retailer incentives, and co-op advertising — in one place, with full visibility into spend and return.

Who CloudTPM is for

Trade marketing teams

Plan and manage all your retailer promotions in one place. No more version conflicts across shared spreadsheets.

Finance & controlling

Accrue, track, and close promotion spend with full audit trails. Reduce month-end surprises and manual reconciliation.

Sales leadership

Understand which promotions drive volume and margin — and which ones don't. Make decisions based on data, not instinct.

Life before and after TPM

Implementation doesn't have to be complex

Many companies assume that TPM software requires months of configuration and specialist resources. CloudTPM is designed for rapid deployment — most customers are running live promotions within 6–10 weeks of project kick-off.

Pre-built templates

Common promotion types — scan-backs, off-invoice, in-store display — are ready to use from day one.

Guided onboarding

NSP's consultants work alongside your team throughout setup. You're never left to figure it out alone.

Scales with you

In the CloudTPM application, it is possible to verify the effectiveness of promotions based on various indicators and KPIs:

Promotion ROI

The system also automatically calculates ROI for the planned promotion and displaying cost of goods sold COGS.

Promotion settlement

The goal was to simplify the collection and validation of promotional data to ensure accurate financial reconciliation and efficient handling of payments or rebates. By streamlining these processes, the aim was to enhance cost management and provide clearer insights for planning future promotions.
