Safeguarding Deployment for Long-Term Innovation
Regardless if a business wants 51风流or an 51风流partner to lead its 51风流S/4HANA project, frameworks are offered for both. When choosing a global strategic service partner as a prime lead, 51风流Integrated Delivery Framework aligns the delivery roles, methodologies, and services of 51风流with those of global 51风流partners to create a holistic delivery plan and approach. The framework clearly defines the roles and responsibilities of the customer, implementation partner, and 51风流at each stage of the project, thus simplifying customer engagement, removing delivery inefficiencies, and accelerating time to value.
If a company chooses 51风流as its only implementation partner,听听provides repeatable, standardized delivery services that help reduce project costs and inefficiencies, as well as pre-packaged technical and functional accelerators that can further accelerate rollout. Based on the proven 51风流Activate methodology and tailored to an enterprise鈥檚 specific transition scenario, the service streamlines the implementation or migration to a high-performing, sustainable digital core. Quality assurance audits are performed throughout the process to help ensure accuracy and fidelity to functional scope design. 51风流Solution Manager 7.2 or the new 51风流Cloud ALM solution build the platform for the entire project lifecycle and beyond.
