To make your Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Supply Chain applications deliver on your performance and functionality expectations, SAP systems require qualified maintenance and continuous optimization. Datamatics' Consolidation, Migration, and Upgrade Services for SAP R/3 can help you in this requirement. We help ensure your SAP systems provide maximum value to your enterprise.

Upgrades: The typical drivers for an upgrade are:

• Change of hardware or software platform to newer versions (OS, DB, or application)
• The current SAP version does not support the new platform or newer versions of SAP software offers better and improved features
• Increased cost of maintenance of existing version and new functionality requirements

Migrations: This is applicable to enterprises looking to migrate from a SAP R/3 environment on a particular hardware platform, operating system, or database platform to a more powerful, versatile, and cost effective one.

Consolidations: Typically, additional R/3 Application Servers are added to the existing SAP environment to meet performance requirements. By consolidating multiple application servers into a fewer systems, an enterprise can reduce support costs, administrative effort, and costs of data center "real estate". Additionally, M&As require enterprise to consolidate multiple SAP installations to simplify reporting and maintenance.

Datamatics can help you determine what course of action delivers value to your enterprise and recommend consolidation, migration, upgrade, or a combination of the three.

This is made possible through our SAP technical and baseline functionality upgrade assessment services which helps you make the best decision by outlining the scope of the project in advance. We adopt the following Plan, Deliver, and Operate (PDO) phase approach to all upgrade and migration projects.
