Many organisations are still relying on ERP and custom business systems that were built for a different era. They are expensive to maintain, slow to change, and not ready for AI, analytics or cloud‑native innovation. Sun:IT helps you move from brittle legacy platforms to modern, flexible and AI‑ready architectures, including the use of low‑code platforms such as Rappit where they fit.

What Sun:IT offers

Assessment and strategy

• Review your current ERP or core business systems, integration landscape and pain points.
• Identify modernisation options: re‑platform, extend, wrap with APIs, or selectively rebuild.

Rappit-based modernisation (where it fits)

• Use Rappit’s low‑code and AI‑enabled tooling to rapidly rebuild or extend legacy functionality.
• Design an architecture that keeps what still works while creating space for new digital services.

Proof‑of‑Concept and pilot

• Start with a tightly scoped pilot that proves value and de‑risks the wider roadmap.
• Validate performance, usability and change impact with real users.

Full delivery and handover

• Work with your internal teams and partners to scale the solution.
• Put in place support, documentation and service processes so you aren’t left with “consultantware”.

When this is a good fit

This work is a good fit if:

• You have Baan, SAP or other legacy ERP / core systems that are hard to change.
• You want to introduce AI, analytics or digital channels, but your current platforms hold you back.
• You need a pragmatic path that balances risk, cost and speed – rather than a “rip and replace” fantasy.

From Baan to Rappit – why this matters

The modernisation story does not start with Rappit; it goes back to Baan.

Baan was one of the pioneering ERP vendors globally, and one of the first to build serious product development capability in India. Rappit is founded by Jan Baan and led by his family as the next chapter of that ERP and low‑code DNA, now focused on connecting legacy ERP with AI and modern architectures.

Sun:IT sits inside that story.

Earlier in his career, Sunit led Baan Customer Service & Support across Asia–Pacific & Japan, working closely with Baan’s global product and India teams. Today, Sun:IT works with Rappit as a partner for ERP and legacy modernisation, bringing both technical understanding and lived knowledge of how the Baan/Rappit culture works.

Why this helps you

• You are not dealing with “just another distributor” learning a new platform.
• You get someone who understands the Baan/Rappit lineage, has worked across NZ, APJ and India, and can translate that into a pragmatic modernisation roadmap for your environment.
• You benefit from relationships and ways of working built over decades, not months.
