We’ve all heard the arguments why agile won’t work in the SAP sector. Large teams are working on high-stake projects that can run for months, even years before the solution is delivered to production. At the same time, we’re talking about your organization’s systems of records, so it can be risky to deliver incomplete software to the production environment.

Transforming SAP application delivery is the answer, and automation is crucial to increasing the likelihood of responding accelerating SAP change without risking production system stability.
The benefits of SAP DevOps initiatives are well documented. Top of the list is massive improvements in speed and volume of SAP change with substantially reduced risk.Yet, pursuing an SAP DevOps strategy can be difficult for companies and SAP IT teams. Traditional SAP application development processes relied heavily on slow, old-fashioned manual tasks – many still in use today – and suffered from costly production outages.This is why we developed Rev-Trac – to eliminate error-prone manual tasks and replace them with automated and consistent processes to accelerate SAP application development without breaking production.
Today, in the final blog of the SAP change management journey series, I look at the critical elements to achieve successful outcomes during the deploy phase of SAP application delivery. Here I will discuss the importance for the control of, and visibility into multiple SAP changes as your organization prepares for production deployment.
In order to master SAP change management, SAP IT teams need to deliver more change, more frequently with less risk. Making it essential to leverage tools for assessing readiness and quality of changes with predictable outcomes for release deployment to production. This ensures the quality of the build is consistent across all phases of the delivery process.
Following on from the previous blog, I continue looking at how businesses can master SAP change management to achieve successful outcomes during the various phases of application delivery. Here I will explore the requirement for automation, safety controls and collaboration during the build phase.
Mastering SAP change management is vital if organizations are to respond quickly to the constant shifts in business needs in today’s digital world. To keep pace with demand, eliminating manual SAP change management processes are crucial. Automation increases the velocity, volume and quality of SAP changes without breaking production.
