The name Figaf
‘Figaf’ is derived from the Danish name for giraffe (giraf). The giraffe has a good overview and is able to see the landscape from a different perspective than most other animals. To solve a problem, it is often necessary to look at it from a new angle, to find new opportunities and solutions.
With this in mind we run our business, and solve your problems.
What we do
One tool to handle all of your SAP Integration processes.
Integration is important to all companies. It enables your business processes to work smoothly with automation. If the integration is not working, it will impact the business processes.
The Figaf tools work on automation for your SAP Integration, so you can trust that your integration and business processes will continue to work. Figaf DevOps Tool is the only tool you need for handling your SAP PI/PO, CPI and API Management. The tool supports all the cases.
Every customer running Figaf still has 100% SAP standard TPM underneath. You can use Figaf, scale it back, or remove it completely, at any point, without losing that standard functionality. You’re not locking yourself in. If a better solution comes along, whether that’s SAP’s own roadmap or something you build yourselves, walking away from Figaf stays simple.
Figaf develops software for SAP Integration that can help you
- Automate your systems and processes
- Test your systems to avoid failure
- Track the changes made to your system
- Monitor that everything works, and alert you if not
- Migrate
- Upgrade your system
Why we do what we do
Figaf wants to make a difference by developing software that can automate SAP Integration and make it work smarter, with a lower risk of failure.
Based on many years of experience with SAP Integration in large companies and organizations, the founder of Figaf, Daniel Graversen, found that parts of the processes could be done smarter. Therefore Figaf started to develop software to optimize SAP Integration processes and systems.
Protection and optimization of your business
Your business relies on integration. If it is not working, you have a problem that can expand deep into your business and cost you a lot of resources. The Figaf tools make it smarter and easier for you to run your business, with limited risk. You also become less dependent on one specific developer, since processes are automated, monitored and changes are tracked. This makes your business less vulnerable.
Increased developer productivity
Developers are the core of your integration, and responsible for a large part of its cost. Figaf helps you get the most out of their skills, so they can spend their time on development rather than on paperwork that can be automated.

Why I created Figaf
For integration developers, by integration developers.
SAP Integration is a hot topic in the SAP world, because good integrations are what keep an enterprise running. On top of that, the need for integration keeps growing, and it keeps getting more complex.
Even as integration development itself has gotten easier, governance around it has not improved much. SAP customers typically follow a framework like SOX or ITIL to make sure they have proper documentation and separation of duties.
I have worked with a lot of SAP customers, and I was consistently frustrated with how documentation was handled. Most teams did not capture enough of it, while others recorded information that was technically there but never kept up to date. Testing was often an afterthought, which meant integrations rarely performed as well as they should have.
Most SAP integration teams face two challenges: too many integrations for the size of the team managing them, and no reliable way to make sure deployment procedures are consistently followed.
That is why we built the Figaf DevOps Suite. It is built to make integration delivery faster, more reliable, and easier to manage, so integration developers can spend less time on process and more time on the integrations themselves.
