SAP is a constantly evolving suite of products. Clearly, keeping pace with these
advances is a must for any corporation. However, the sheer size and complexity of
SAP solutions make this task daunting. SAP upgrades require some adaptation and
adjustments to the new application version to accommodate the added functionalities.
What’s more, SAP has well-defined support deadlines for each release. After
these dates, high maintenance and enhancement expenses dramatically increase your
total cost of ownership (TCO). The good news: New-dimension SAP products and new
releases not only improve technical performance, they integrate seamlessly and improve
business processes.
N2N has evaluated the critical success factors for SAP upgrade projects and has
built a detailed roadmap to ensure you benefit from a highly successful upgrade.
Our SAP professionals possess vast experience with upgrade projectsand we are one
of the few providers performing upgrades to ECC 6.0. In Summary, we have found the
following elements to be essential to a successful upgrade:
- Effective change management and thorough training of all key stakeholders
- A business continuity plan to minimize downtime.
- Thorough impact analysis, listing all modifications, custom objects and enhancements,
and checking SAP notes.
- Accurate hardware sizing to ensure maximum return on investment.
- Realistic and detailed project plans that depict duration and dependencies of all
tasks, technical and functional.
- Adaptation and adjustment to the new application version and its functionalities.
