    SAP Implementation Process

    1. Project preparation
    There are 2 main activities involved
    1.1 Design and initially staff the SAP TSO
    To design the technical support organization (TSO) which is the organization that is charged
    with the addressing designing, implementation and supporting SAP solution. High level
    project team like database administrator and solution architect next step would be choosing
    internal staff and external consultant.
    1.2 Craft solution vision
    Addressing both business and functional requirement. The main focus within the vision
    should be on companies core business and then figure out the short coming of the existing
    system in terms of availability(uptime), security, manageability and scalability.
    2. Sizing and Blueprinting
    2.1 Perform cost of ownership analysis
    Perform total cost of ownership (TCO) analysis to determine how to get the best business
    solution at a lowest cost. This means to compare SAP solution stack option and alternatives
    and to determine the cost of each stack and at what stage will this be incurred. Parts of the
    stack are hardware, operating system and database which forms the acquisition cost. Next
    to it would be recurring cost such as maintenance and downtime cost.
    Suggest to perform delta analysis where the difference between solution (stack) are
    identified and analysed.
    2.2 Identify high availability and disaster recovery requirement
    Downtime of the SAP system caused by hardware failure, application failure and it is also
    very important to calculate the cost of downtime and the organization will have a best idea
    of the availability requirement.
    3. Engage SAP solution Stack vendor
    4. Staff TSO
    5. Functional development
    5.1 Address Change Management
    5.2 SAP system and operation management
    5.3 Functional integration and regression testing
