The implementation of such a complete and complex IT system as SAP S/4Hana or other SAP applications for various business processes can be an experience in itself: either good or exceptional.
In our opinion, the difference is made by the level of preparation of the company to take this step. Therefore, thorough documentation of the project can guarantee the success of the implementation.
SAP standard or multi Z?
We are proponents of implementations as close to standard and best practices as possible.
Of course, it is not always easy as resistance to change can be a real obstacle in implementation.
However, in this case, the vast experience of Sostenia's experts comes into play!
We have experience in approaching SAP implementation projects from scratch, as well as other types of implementations. We have gone through all the phases generated by such projects and have faced various obstacles that we have successfully overcome. We have accumulated the necessary expertise and developed our own approach.
From the experience gained in SAP implementations so far, the Sostenia team has developed a new approach, which is based on three main pillars: project preparation, preparation of detailed specifications in the Business Blueprint, and the change management component.
Project Preparation
The first step is the most important
Start
We need to clarify from the beginning the reason why we are implementing SAP.
Documentation
The purpose of the implementation, from the company's point of view, must be clear and thoroughly documented.
Eliminate losses
The easiest way is to track the elimination of losses in the current processes through the implementation of SAP.
Business Blueprint
A clear project goal
The list of processes
All company processes must be identified, listed, and prepared to be taken over by SAP.
Detailing the project scope
Not only should the list of processes be intentional, but also the details about how they operate and the level of automation.
Deliverables
We rely on KPIs and measurement to define the outcomes of the future implementation.
Change Management
Adopting a new system
People first
We work with and for people, which is why we constantly report to the project team and process managers.
Remove the barriers
The team needs to prepare for the change process and eliminate barriers.
Team support
The experience of giving up old tools and adopting a new system must be done with active support for those involved.
SAP + Implementation
It can be an experience in itself. A positive rediscovery of all processes in the company and an improvement exercise for the project team. It can be a beneficial, creative experience that ensures the long-term development of the company and its employees.
