SAP Architektur für Ihr Business - Operative Höchstleistungen durch Klarheit und Effizienz

Implementation Dynamics TM Maximizing the Potential of Your SAP with Implementation Dynamics TM • Is your company about to embark on an enterprise-wide SAP ERP implementation? • Are the key stakeholders equipped with the experience and tools necessary to facilitate a successful implementation? Implementation DynamicsTM is a tailored workshop that is designed to help your organization prepare for an upcoming SAP ERP implementation. The most critical situations in a SAP ERP implementation occur when those planning and executing the project lack the requisi- te skills and training. In companies or teams new to SAP, this can extend to all levels of the project hierarchy as well key project sponsors and senior management. These situations can be avoided with specialist project planning and execution, resulting in a fully prepared organization whose key implementation members are trained for the complexities of the project. A well-briefed team will understand its role and contribution to the project, how to avoid certain pitfalls and how to involve all stakeholders across the business, ensuring cohesive integration into the overall implementation. Based on experience, experts at Westernacher have pooled their project experience into this insightful package called Implementation DynamicsTM. There are few courses that have such a hands-on approach. © 2009 Dr. Westernacher & Partner Unternehmensberatung AG.

You will learn from the successes and mistakes of those who have experienced this before and will take away a practical approach on how to get it right the first time. There have been many high-profile SAP ERP implementations over the years – either very successful or complete disasters. But we seldom hear about the pressure placed on an organization during those implementations and what ultimately deter- mines a successful project. tion Informta Westernacher & Partner Consulting Limited Contac 72 New Bond Street | London | W1S 1RR | United Kingdom ooks her.com Roger Br esternac Phone: +44 (0) 870 38 30 272 | Fax: +44 (0) 870 38 36 272 oks@w Dr. Westernacher & Partner Unternehmensberatung AG roger.
