Business process scenario
The great value of SAP Business ByDesign is in the business process scenarios integrated into the system. 39 end-to-end business processes resulting from the best practices of many successful companies from the EU and the US are available to system users and are an excellent solution for companies that need to build or redesign their business processes.
Required infrastructure
SAP Business ByDesign is used as a cloud service (software as a service - SaaS) so the user does not need to have their own infrastructure (data center-servers, power supply, cooling, operating system) to host the software. The software is located in SAP's data center, the user accesses it via the Internet, and the service includes the entire infrastructure and maintenance of system functionality. The user's sole responsibility is to ensure adequate Internet access.
Implementation
The implementation of the SAP Business ByDesign solution in cooperation with the user is carried out by b4b consultants. In addition to knowing the functionality of SAP Business ByDesign solutions, the key value that b4b brings to users is top expert knowledge and real business experience in each of the business areas covered by SAP Business ByDesign.
b4b is the only SAP Partner for the implementation of SAP Business ByDesign in Croatia.
Duration of the implementation project
The average duration of an SAP Business ByDesign implementation project is 3-4 months (depending on the number of modules to be implemented and the organizational complexity of the user company). In the case of a narrower range, ie a smaller number of modules, the duration of implementation can be significantly shorter (1.5-2 months).
System maintenance
The service of using the SAP Business ByDesign system, in addition to the application and the entire infrastructure, includes maintaining the functionality of the entire system. System maintenance includes:
- continuous maintenance of software functionality as defined in the implementation project
- regular quarterly software updates with new upgrades (users continuously receive newly developed functionalities)
- regular periodic activities of maintenance and renovation of the entire infrastructure
- B4B and SAP are responsible for system maintenance.
