Well-intentioned in theory, a latent nuisance in practical implementation. This is how many employees from IT departments and later users perceive the "messing around" with the SAP system. However, you can prevent this.
Change projects have one thing in common: the longer they last, the more the enthusiasm of those involved flattens out. Lack of communication, unstructured test management, changing contact persons - the list of reasons for suboptimal SAP solutions is long. And that's no fun for the customer or the SAP consultants. That's why we have developed an implementation method that makes it possible to implement SAP AddOns within just six weeks (previously three months).
As a combination of process consulting and SAP specialist, we like to fine-tune our methods and also make our processes.Simple.Better. To be able to describe our approach, we have given it a name: The VIROCK Implementation Method.
VIROCK stands for Vision > Installation > Responding > Organization > Concept > Keys. What is unique about our implementation method is that part of the concept emerges while the project is already underway.
Directly at the start of the project, we install our template on a test system and work directly with your real data to test the extent to which adjustments are necessary. Due to the high standardization of our SAP ERP solutions and our extensive experience in customer projects, the extent of necessary adjustments is usually manageable. Additionally we are at your disposal for Process optimization We support our customers from the very beginning, determine their needs in workshops and work with the mutual interaction of realization and conception.
"In this way, we are replacing classic, lengthy target/actual concepts, which are often, despite all efforts, not practical." - Stephan Kaup, Managing Director of CSK
The high degree of flexibility in the application of VIROCK requires communicative work from those involved, which pays off:
- Management, IT management & users benefit from process digitization:. Instead of internal discord over innovations, users are happy about less effort for routine activities.
- Budget, schedule, and staffing remain on target.
- The financial investments are amortized on average after about one year from GoLive.
