It’s all about processes: manage your SAP implementation using Business Processes!

SPIRIT and its SAP certified partners can help you create your detailed business blueprint, based on advanced process models using ARIS Business Architect for SAP. We can also support your SOA initiatives with the (exclusive for ARIS) link to the SAP Enterprise Services Repository (ESR 7.0), available through the ARIS SOA Architect. 

Through our extensive experience and the utilization of SAP reference processes, it is now possible to define accurate as-is and to-be states for your business model and therefore manage your gap analysis, adjust your operational behavior and align your configuration with industry best practices, ensuring a fast and cost-effective implementation with minimum system customization (controlled through a robust authorization design). 

We can also manage the complete set of all related technical documentation (including documentation of reports, forms, interfaces, workflows and extensions) and associate them with the appropriate business areas, making impact analysis easier than ever. 

Overall, you can enhance system functionality through realization of cross-functional, end-to-end scenarios, maximizing the benefits from the integration capabilities of your ERP solution.

SPIRIT’s process-centric SAP implementation solution:

Initial scoping decisions can be easily translated into functional requirements, forming the basis for your system specifications. Synchronizing your process model with SAP Solution Manager will bridge the gap between business owners and IT functions, allowing for a combined and consistent effort.

When the system is configured, we can support seamless integration of the developed solution with the rest of your IT landscape, using the ARIS Test Designer, which specializes in the definition and management of end to end acceptance and integration testing scenarios. 

Managing change can be easily governed with the ARIS Process Governance Engine, a powerful tool for the definition and execution of process change management workflows. Establish process ownership in the Organization using a web interface with email extensions, ensuring relevant parties are informed and necessary actions are assigned for every change request.  

In ERP implementations, continuous knowledge transfer is of essence; you can therefore communicate the system functionality using ARIS Business Publisher and incorporate your process portal to your company’s intranet in order to provide detailed, user-friendly training content to your Organization, automatically updated every time one of your business processes is modified.

Document your existing SAP system

The ARIS Redocumentation Solution can equip your business with a valuable insight of your existing SAP system functionality, through automatic creation of process models based on real usage data.  It is now possible to obtain an accurate as-is snapshot of your SAP solution and speed up upgrades or change projects by re-documenting complex, heavily customized SAP implementations. Furthermore, you can assess conformity of the developed solution to initial requirements and support strategic initiatives and important decisions by providing a complete and accurate picture to your business stakeholders. 

Monitor and optimize your SAP system 

Business Intelligence is your competitive advantage and ARIS BI Modeler can assist you in capturing existing data structures and flows or design new entity relationships for your existing SAP BI Landscape.  Combining this with real time monitoring of your overall business performance can provide unparalleled transparency and control to your decision makers. Live execution data from your end-to-end business processes can become available through customizable dashboards, allowing for analyses that will highlight any bottlenecks and weak points. Process Intelligence is a powerful tool in the endeavor to boost efficiency and productivity within your Organization, reduce process cycle times and costs and facilitate your journey towards operational excellence.
