ACCELERATE YOUR NEXT AEM PROJECT
SAS & JMP Landscape
• SAS: $3B business analytics software firm
• SAS has adopted AEM as enterprise WCM
• SAS.com implemented AEM (Launch January 2014)
• JMP is a product and brand within SAS
• JMP is a customer of SAS IT team
• JMP.com needs to implement AEM
![Page 3: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
ACCELERATE YOUR NEXT AEM PROJECT
SAS & JMP Goals / Requirements
• Maximize investment in AEM
• Leverage existing AEM infrastructure and work product
• Re-use as much of existing design as possible
• Not interrupt SAS.com team velocity
• Meet budget, time, and resource constraints of JMP
• Launch JMP.com ahead of JMP 12 product launch

ACCELERATE YOUR NEXT AEM PROJECT
Eight Key Accelerators for JMP.com AEM Implementation
1. Clearly define your strategy for another domain
2. Reuse, refactor, then build new
3. Develop appropriate team structure between old and new
4. Maximize knowledge share
5. Change your business processes
6. Think creatively about business needs
7. Don’t skimp on quality
8. Enroll authors early in the process

ACCELERATOR 1 Clearly Define Your Strategy
• Inventory applications, integrations, processes
• Three-week strategy phase critical to JMP success
• Technical, functional, and process perspectives
• Assessed current state, defined requirements,
mitigated risk, and created the reuse and
implementation strategy
Teams InvolvedJMP Marketing
JMP Online Team
SAS Digital Marketing
SAS IT / AEM SMEs
iCiDIGITAL AEM Consultants

ACCELERATOR 2 Reuse, Refactor, Then Build New
• Reduce development time and energy by
eliminating redundancy
• Reduce overall development costs through
reuse and refactoring
• Spend budget on new functionality
![Page 7: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
ACCELERATOR 3 Create Appropriate Team Structure Between Old and New
• SAS.com team already had velocity with AEM
• JMP.com considered a parallel vs. combined team
approach with SAS.com development team
• Chose a combined teams approach
• This is the approach that worked for us; your
mileage may vary
![Page 8: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ACCELERATOR 3 Create Appropriate Team Structure – Combined Teams
Pros of Combined TeamJMP Development will benefit SAS.com and support.sas.com
Refactoring existing components will have reusability benefits
Combining SAS and iCi developers will leverage SAS.com and CQ expertise
Velocity can be shared or pooled
IT Developers will be cross-trained prior iCi resources disengage
Overall efficiencies in collaborative development and planning
Cons of Combined TeamBacklog prioritization is a new process
Onboarding new contractors can impact velocity
Daily scrum and sprint planning may lengthen due to larger audience
Onboarding current developers to JMP can impact velocity
Scaling beyond SAS.com, JMP, Support is difficult** (Turned out not to be the case)
![Page 9: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ACCELERATOR 4 Maximize Knowledge Share
• SAS.com team already had AEM knowledge
• iCiDIGITAL team brought external AEM
expertise and experience from other projects
• Make sure functionality can be maintained after
the contractors leave
• AEM author training for JMP team
![Page 10: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
ACCELERATOR 5 Be Willing to Change Your Business Processes
• Adopt and modernize business processes to AEM
• AEM can improve operational efficiency and user experience
• Example: JMP 30-day trial
![Page 11: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
ACCELERATOR 6 Think Creatively to Satisfy Business Needs
• Think creatively about how existing templates and component can
be modified to suit your needs
• Collaborate with other AEM site owners and development about
needs and requirements that could be shared
![Page 12: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ACCELERATOR 7 Don’t Skimp on Quality
• QA is critical to success
• For SAS & JMP, QA became a bottleneck that slowed
project velocity
• Invested in QA resource to increase QA capacity
![Page 13: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
ACCELERATOR 8 Enroll Authors Early in the Process
• Fosters adoption of AEM
• Authors provide insights about how AEM and existing processes can be blended, modified, or created to improve publishing
• Utilize authors during migration
• Better trained authoring team at launch
![Page 14: EVOLVE'14 | Maximize | CiDigital & John Jones | SAS/JMP - An AEM Case Study](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042817/55a2e2c61a28ab30358b4606/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

CQ5 CROSS DOMAIN RECOMMENDATION
PARALLEL APPROACH
ProsKeep backlogs simple, minimal change
Low complexity in developer setup
Developers focus on each specific site needs
We can scale beyond SASCOM, JMP, Support.sas.com
ConsDuplicate components, templates
SASCOM, JMP, Support work in silos
No cross learning
Components developed by contractors will need comprehensive transition to IT
Spreading the architect and QA thin
Harder to re-use components across teams
Difficult to de-tangle code (back-out), if one team is a ‘Go’ and the other is a ‘NoGo’
