Phase 2: Business Blueprint © Copyright IBM Corporation 2005
Best Practices and Lessons Learnt Change Management: Not an IT initiative, but Business driven transformation initiative Top Management Commitment and Constant communication (periodic newsletters, all hands meetings) Change management process must be well defined and meticulously followed Project Culture (Logo, Theme and Vision)
The Team: Identify Business Process Owners and Business Activity Owners who have solid business experience and have credibility within the company. They have to own the To-Be process and should walk the talk Clear roles and responsibilities of Core Client Team and Consultants Team Core team members should be relieved off from their previous organizational responsibilities, and should be fully dedicated to the implementation activities
Contd..
Phase 2: Business Blueprint © Copyright IBM Corporation 2005
Best Practices and Lessons Learnt Documentation: Document what you do, do what you document ! Each and every information provided by process owners and business experts must be documented everyday and it should be validated as a part of MOMs to avoid confusion at a later stage
Focus on Integration: Identify Integration Manager to ensure process integration and process coordination Usage of RACI charts (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed) to make teams clearly accountable for integration of major business process flows and data elements Think beyond organization boundary – collaborate with your key customers and suppliers while developing the integrated solution
Contd..
Phase 2: Business Blueprint © Copyright IBM Corporation 2005
Best Practices and Lessons Learnt
Business Solutions for the future: To-Be process is finalized in this stage Ensure that project is NOT about automating the As-Is process To-Be Process Design should try to leverage standard SAP as much as possible Timely Business Decision is the key. Trade-off between Nice to Have and Good enough solutions Effective Scope Management and decision on business benefits-cost Solution to align with Business Case, CSF/KPI objectives Ensure that three key levers (People, Process and Technology) are aligned. All along, aim for constant buy-in from all stakeholders

Organization Application Architecture Operations
Phase 2 - Business Blueprint documents the client’s business process requirements and create the “Business Blueprint”
The organizational structure of the future enterprise is defined and mapped to SAP organizational units
The R/3 Reference Model is used to decompose the client’s business processes, map these to SAP functionality and identify gaps
Business Process Procedures (BPPs) facilitate integration testing and also accelerate the development of training and end-user support manuals
The technical environment for the development and production systems are
planned and tested

Cutover Planning The cutover plan refines the Transition Plan’s strategies and decisions and specifies the details to execute a cutover to a live environment. The Cutover Plan is a detailed schedule of tasks that are required to convert legacy systems to the Modernized Services. This schedule identifies tasks, task dependencies, level of effort (hours), and resources assigned. There are separate Cutover Plans for each deployment. A Cut Over Plan ensures that plan for addressing issues during and immediately after the system cutover is well-defined and communicated to the IT team. Cut over planning determines proper cut over plan, pilot, strategy for data management, conversion support, ownership and responsibilities. Deliverables for a cut over plan are Migration /Conversion Plan, Support Requirements and Conversion Documents .
© Copyright IBM Corporation 2005
Cutover Planning In short the cutover plan covers the following activities: a)Review Migration /conversion planning and timing b)Create checklist c)Determine production readiness d)Contingency Plan e)Approve cutover f) Establish helpdesk g)Reorganize team for production support h)Define long term production support strategy
