Case Study
A roadmap for technological evolution within SAP
×
We supported an application and integrated upgrade path to manage the transition of SAP BW applications to the BW/4HANA platform.
Where: international
Where: international
Challenge
The IT Management of a Leading Oil Company needed to improve the overall performance of its SAP BW system: work was required on both the scalability of the architecture and the Business Continuity of its application landscape.
Approach
The first objective was to establish a technological evolution roadmap for the transition to SAP BW/4HANA that would guarantee the overall security of the solution’s infrastructural component. The second objective was to manage the application upgrade of the SAP Business Object component, providing the solution with new reporting tools to support daily business operations.
The customer decided to entrust Engineering with the project’s activities, involving us as a reference partner for the application stack of the SAP platform being evolved.

Digital Ecosystem
In the first phase, we initiated the activities, supporting the client with the operational aspects of the project and with the role of Program Management Office (PMO), given the presence of external working groups (SAP, other specific suppliers). For the operational activities within the scope of the project, thanks to the high level of knowledge in terms of both technology and context, we were able to define the application upgrade strategy together with SAP and the client, dividing activities and responsibilities among the various groups involved. Specifically, we were entrusted with the tasks of defining the upgrade process, “post upgrade tasks”, the execution of System Test activities, and the recovery of data from the original systems to feed the new system. The second part of the project will instead focus on increasedreporting (performing, responsive), with the possibility of building customisable dashboards.
