Services

Four ways I help organisations move.

Test strategy and governance for complex SAP S/4HANA programmes, so go-live is a decision, not a gamble.

  • End-to-end test strategy across SIT, UAT and regression, including defect management and tester onboarding
  • SAP Cloud ALM as the central hub for test and quality management
  • SAP Solution Manager 7.2 & Focused Build for established on-premise landscapes
  • Test automation with Tricentis to secure releases and upgrades

Selected projects

Programmes where the stakes were high and the path wasn’t obvious.

Project 1 of 7: Test management for a multi-utility S/4HANA Utilities programme

Current · Energy & Utilities · Germany

Test management for a multi-utility S/4HANA Utilities programme

A large programme with around ten sub-projects, moving German utilities onto SAP S/4HANA Utilities.

  • Introduced SAP Cloud ALM as the central test tool
  • Designed Jira / Cloud ALM workflows and the defect process
  • Ran user-story quality workshops with business and IT

Approach

Lead without dictating. Structure without bureaucracy.

  1. 01

    Understand

    Context, people and real constraints first — before proposing any method.

  2. 02

    Structure

    Turn complexity into a plan, clear decisions and reporting leadership can trust.

  3. 03

    Deliver

    Steer the day-to-day, remove blockers, keep tech and project management in sync.

  4. 04

    Anchor

    Hand over capabilities, not dependencies — so the change lasts.

About

Hi, I’m Milan.

Milan Kölling holding his notebook
Milan Kölling Founder, Amsterdam

I’ve spent years in international consulting as project lead, Lead-PMO and agile coach in IT transformation programmes — from telecom and retail to energy and water utilities.

Today my focus is SAP S/4HANA Utilities and test management, combined with the leadership and change skills that make large programmes work. I founded Nimblecon to work closely with clients — as an independent partner, not a name on a staffing plan.

I’ve also been on the other side of the table: as founder and managing director of a franchise business in Amsterdam, I owned everything from P&L and hiring to suppliers and daily operations. It taught me what change feels like when it’s your own company carrying the risk.
