Transcript of SAP implementation approach using IBM BPM - IBM Smarter Process for SAP
IBM’s Innovative Implementation MethodEnabled w/ IBM Smarter Process for SAP
IBM’s Method with IBM BPM: OverviewInnovate and present business value
IBM GBS’s delivery process using IBM BPM guides Practitioner blueprint activities
enabled with orchestrated BPM processes to ensure consistency, compliance and Excellence in Delivery and allowing SAP Implementation teams to work smarter provides innovative tooling to capture, understand, document, collaborate, reuse, and optimize any business
process
IBM BPM facilitates development of process models that execute the process while capturing process metrics and key business data for improved visibility and control ‘Live’ playback during all phases of process design and rollout allows for a more complete blueprint
Delivers agile SAP business processes that are easy to change
Connect Strategy to Executionwith GBS’s refreshed Method combined with key tools, leading practices and process templates.

IBM’s Innovative Implementation MethodEnabled w/ IBM Smarter Process for SAP
IBM Smarter Process for SAP drives SAP Solution Design in a consistent, managed, and highly collaborative way:
Visualization with SAP integration of the “to‐be” business process during the design phaseEnterprise‐wide business process visualizationProcess “playback” during design workshops fosters business participation & ownershipProcess Monitoring and Optimization enabled where applicableMaintain SAP Solution Manager as the Book‐of‐Record.

Document creation tools are used to build text documents
and process pictures
The Business Process Hierarchy (BPH) is built and maintained manually in
Solution Manager
Documents and process pictures are manually loaded
into Solution Manager
Process designers draw a picture of the business process and store all process details in a reusable database
The process picture can immediately execute the process in SAP, providing
immediate feedback to process designers and owners
Process documentation is generated automatically from the process metadata in the BPM tool
The Business Process Hierarchy (BPH) and process documentation are built automatically by BPM and maintained automatically in Solution Manager

GBS uses BPM Process Orchestration to enhance Business Blueprint
GBS uses IBM BPM Process Orchestration to drive SAP Solution Design in a consistent, managed, and collaborative way. Some of the GBS driven Blueprinting enhancements are: Methodical guided content capturing and stored as model objects in BPM
i.e. Each business requirement is an entity that can be used by many processes
Centralized information updateChange in a business requirement is immediately reflected in all associated processes
Business process and reporting is accessible in visual formatWhole solution can be analyzed, not just a single processProcess can be orchestrated and executed for the business during designProcess Monitoring and Optimization is enabled

Method guided design
Visual reporting illustrates process integration
IBM BPM leveraged at multiple points in a project implementation lifecycle – from Design to Build to Run
Blueprinting Realization Deploy Sustain
Minimize SAP customizationsMaintain process consistency
Guided workflow & embedded collaboration
reduces training and adoption challenges
Reduce functional testing durationHelp in coordination of global delivery
Establishes a foundation for continuous optimization of
process
Iterative “playback” based prototyping of complex process designs, work flows, and/or collaborations & Business/User Validation of specifications
Reduced blueprinting timeFull LOB Engagement
Visualize the process directly – no ‘simulation’
Project Phase/Aspect Qualitative Benefit
Project Prep Accelerate Project Startups and establish & deepen the Client relationship.
Project Asset reuse High quality starter deliverables accelerate blueprinting.
Iterative Blueprinting Business Led change and streamlined delivery.
Process Design & Development Dynamic, flexible processes with reduced SAP config complexity/
Realization Configure & build basics during Blueprinting.
Final Prep Simplify and Reduce effort and complexity of Final Prep.
Go Live Made more efficient by Orchestrating and managing mission critical deployment tasks.
Support Transition Made more seamless with Process transparency and robust management reduce transition complexity.
