SAP General Question

What are SAP implementation roadmap and what steps are involved in it?
The SAP implementation roadmap is a standard process provided by SAP AG for smooth SAP implementation and is called the ASAP roadmap. The ASAP roadmap consists of five phases: [1] Project Preparation, [2] Business Blueprint, [3] Realization, [4] Final Preparation, and [5] Going live and support.
Ø  Project Preparation: in this phase of the ASAP Roadmap, decision-makers define clear project objectives and an efficient decision making process. Here, project organization and roles are defined and implementation scope is finalized.
Ø  Business Blueprint: In this phase, the scope of the R/3 implementation is defined and the Business Blueprint is created. The Business Blueprint is a detailed documentation of the customer’s requirements.
Ø  Realization: The purpose of Phase 3 is to configure the R/3 system. The configuration is carried out in two steps: baseline configuration and Final configuration.
Ø  Final Preparation: The purpose of this phase is to complete the final preparation of the R/3 system for going live. This includes testing, user training, system management, and cutover activities to finalize your readiness to go live.
Going Live and Support: During this Phase, the first early watch session should be held, where SAP experts analyze the system’s technical infrastructure. The aim is to ensure the system functions as smoothly as possible.
