  • Overall implementation process is outlined.

2. Planning/Scoping

 
  • Lead Consultant completes on-site scoping document to understand existing processes and your organization’s goals for the new solution;
  • Consultants map processes against solution functionality;
  • Discuss any additional reporting and development requirements against initial requirements.

3. Execution & Control

 
  • Software is deployed, databases are installed and configured by an SAP consultant;
  • Workshops and training are completed;
  • User-acceptance testing is conducted.

4. Completion
