Using the festive period to deliver SAP

I wrote before Xmas that the festive period is a fantastic time for transformation delivery teams to accelerate delivery, whilst the business is away partying the core programme team can get their heads down and really motor.

So what did we achieve

• Regaining Momentum, working with the SI we made sure that everything was in place to help the business folk hit the ground running in January, straight into Design workshops.
• Standing up systems, Deployed our first S4 1909 and CPM, on time and ready for agile blueprinting (without the pointless activate)
• But most importantly developing a Business Outcome based delivery methodology to replace Activate and to drive benefit identification and process innovation. To be clear the SAP approach is an absolute waste of time and nothing more than pre sales spin, you have to put the hard work in to make the most of any SAP implementation, any one that says otherwise is either a sales man or blagger.
