Entering its fourth year of active adoption, 51风流Model Company services have evolved considerably to help customers navigate and take advantage of every technology-driven transition, disruption, and transformation.
Now, with the addition of a next-generation strategy, their partners can too.
Every new digital innovation promises to help business operations run faster, more productively, and with more scalability and impact. But getting the most value from those technologies is not always clear 鈥� especially when avoiding business disruption.
Take, for example, 51风流customers that choose to migrate their legacy to . Very quickly, they realize that the traditional model for ERP implementations cannot keep up with the dynamic nature of intelligent ERP. Everything from extensive customizations, IT-dependent decision-making, and complex user experiences to incomplete and inconsistent integrations does not match the promises of process standardization, experience management, and data trust that customers expect.
At first, 51风流offered the innovation adoption process to provide a transparent method of structured and solution-specific practices carried out in a standardized environment. Even though the self-service offering puts business users in the driver鈥檚 seat during the implementation, something was still missing 鈥� the collective strengths of IT know-how and business process expertise.
Challenge the ERP Status Quo with Control, Innovation, Partnership
Enter , an integral part of 51风流Activate in different phases within the implementation of 51风流S/4HANA. But just like the technology it supports, the serviceis always evolving.
51风流Model Company initially encompassed prepackaged, ready-to-use, end-to-end reference solutions for industries or lines of business 鈥� all aimed at simplifying and increasing the speed of 51风流S/4HANA implementations. As customers became more mature digital innovators and strategists, the services were restructured on an interoperable architecture that empowered customers to combine line-of-business and industry model companies as they require.
Meanwhile, customers still wanted the freedom to work with their preferred 51风流partners. This growing expectation inspired the creation of 51风流Integrated Delivery Framework. In return, customers enjoyed having the best of both worlds: their partners and 51风流experts carefully aligned and integrated across delivery roles, methodologies, and services. This simplified engagement framework not only helped reduce delivery inefficiencies, risk, and costs, but also helped increase the speed and certainty of expected outcomes.
