How do you decrease time to value and significantly reduce implementation costs when deploying SAP S/4HANA on Microsoft Azure? Discover why more and more customers are moving towards rapid deployment templates and accelerators.
Iceberg, a manufacturing company facing some economic and commercial pressures, is a long standing customer of SAP. In a market they were once dominant in, opportunities are disappearing due to changes in the way people source and buy their product, and they are unable to be agile and adapt due to the rigid business processes imposed upon them by their IT systems. Their current system is an older version of the German software giant’s ERP product (ECC 6.0) and they are still rolling this out across their global organisation.
This is an old template but they have been persevering with the deployment because all their previous upgrades have been time-consuming, painful affairs due to the levels of bespoke coding and customisation in their solution. They recognise that their previous ways of bending the software to suit their processes has created a monolithic SAP system that isn’t able to stay current or easily adapt to changing market situations. Furthermore, they are unable to benefit from the latest innovations delivered by SAP, which is crucial to their ability to stay relevant in a changing market.
In the current climate SAP is guiding us to standardised solutions using extensibility and open source developments for customer specific customisations. More and more customers are moving towards rapid deployment templates and accelerators to achieve this and significantly reduce implementation costs.
Available to you now is an automated deployment of a complete Microsoft Azure Virtual Datacentre, hosting SAP S/4HANA, using purpose-built accelerators and market specific templated solutions. Coupled with automated deployment of tooling for monitoring and supporting your landscape, you can be up and running in a matter of days and ready for your project to begin. Gone are the days of delaying your project whilst you wait on tedious infrastructure deployment and software installations.
