SAP constantly evolve their suite of products to make them business relevant. Keeping pace with these advances and evaluating if it is time to upgrade to a new version is in the interest of organizations that have invested in SAP. However, companies may find this task effort intensive and daunting.
As a service provider with expertise in SAP implementation services, Zenith keeps track of new SAP versions and deadlines for new releases. We also evaluate both the technical benefits and enhanced functionality of these releases. Based on this, we suggest upgrade roadmaps for our clients that take into account:
- Change management
- Business continuity
- Business impact analysis
- Detailed project planning
- Hardware sizing
We have experience in upgrading to from SAP versions 4.6c/4.7 to ECC-6.0
Moreover, our upgrade methodology draws from SAP's ASAP methodology and also incorporates the efficiencies of an offshore-based delivery model giving clients the dual benefit of lowered cost and shorter upgrade cycle. We also ensure minimal business disruption and carry out post-upgrade IT environment optimization reviews as per client needs.
