• Large independent retailer in North America (more than 800 stores in 24 states)

• An “Agile Shop” – wants to leverage this going forward and increase business participation and cross-team collaboration

Objectives: Increase visibility into progress; Leverage rapid feedback loops; Increase solution acceptance; Leverage standard solution where applicable

Retail Company - Fast Track with ASAP Agile

Key Take Away

Drive for better “Time to Value”; customers are looking for early confirmation that requirements can be met.

Rapid Deployment Solutions greatly shorten deployment of SAP solutions.

SAP offers a proven set of Acceleration Techniques and Deployment Strategies in ASAP 8

Agile has been used successfully in SAP projects of various sizes and solution scope and helps to mitigate risk

Level of acceleration and approach need to be tailored to the customer’s situation, requirements and culture
