CC Trusted advisor

If you miss the transparency with SAP and their processes.

If your project/program lead/manager need help towards the SAP organisation

If you can’t figure out who to contact in the SAP organisation.

If you need an extra set of eyes on the SAP deal you are about to sign

If your incidents are left without any attention and are taking too long to get solved

If you’re unsure that you leverage all the benefits from SAP support and services, you are

entitled to.


Then I can help!


I’ve created CC Trusted advisor with the aim to be the trusted advisor at customer site as I

believe this is needed.

I have no shares at SAP, no hidden agenda to sell SAP software but have the knowledge to

help with transparency.

The value you can get as an SAP customer.


Stakeholder management within SAP


CC Trusted Advisor has expertise in stakeholder management within SAP, which

leads to effective communication and collaboration, streamlined processes, and

enhanced project success. This implies that CC Trusted Advisor can help manage

relationships with key stakeholders within the SAP ecosystem, ensuring smooth

project execution and successful outcomes.


Deal support


CC Trusted Advisor can assist in evaluating and selecting the appropriate support

options for implementation, go-live, and migration processes. They can also help

identify any unused maintenance on on-premise software that the company is still

paying for and explore opportunities for cost savings and optimization of

resources.


Incident process


CC Trusted Advisor has a deep understanding of incident support processes,

enabling effective management and resolution of issues in a timely and efficient

manner. They can help set up incidents in the right way, ensuring maximum focus

and escalation if needed. This can help avoid incidents dragging on for days or

weeks, which can cause project delays and additional costs


Service & Support


If the company has signed a contract with Premium Engagement/Active Attention

and/or preferred success support, CC Trusted Advisor can collaborate with them to

ensure they have the most optimal service plan. They can also check if any of the

services offered are available for free elsewhere in the SAP organization,

potentially saving costs and enhancing operational efficiency.


Leveraging SAP support functions:


CC Trusted Advisor offers technical expertise and guidance to optimize system

performance and enhance user experience. They can help the company leverage

the support they are entitled to and go beyond, ensuring they make full use of

enterprise support for on-premise systems or the Enterprise Support Cloud Edition

(ESCE) for cloud products. They can assist in navigating the SAP website to

understand the support entitlements and provide valuable assistance in incident

management and self-help resources.

Services


A bit more deep dive

Service & Support

If you have signed a contract with Premium Engagement/Active attention, you will be assigned a TQM (Technical Quality Manager). Or if you have signed up for preferred success support, I can also collaborate with you and make use of it so that you get the most optimal service plan, and I can also check whether the services offered are available for free elsewhere in the SAP organization.

Incident Management

A large part of the customers concerns, and they often drag on for a long time.

Here I know the process around incidents and how to get them set up in the right way, so that there is the greatest possible focus on them. Who to contact if things are going too slowly in relation to the SLA and who to push.

 

Many projects come to a standstill while the incident is in progress and deadlines can be pushed, which can be a big cost.

Here I have helped customers who, after knowing about the incident process, can cut the waiting time of many days sometimes weeks, down to a few days or hours. Of course, still depending on the problem.

 

Basically, I can provide with creating the transparency between You and SAP and make sure you leverage and are aware of the many processes at SAP.

Stakeholders @ SAP

Of all the software you have at SAP, each LoB has some kind of support function, depending on the LoB.

I know what they must be able to deliver and how you can leverage it.

 

Together with a PM or PrM, I can also assist and provide input on how they get the best possible help for their project.

Orchestrating meetings with the various stakeholders is also something I can help with, so that there are not too many irrelevant meetings. Or too many irrelevant people are invited.

 

In connection with a RISE deal or S4HANA cloud journey, a larger team from SAP is also assigned, and each one has a function you can use.

When migrating from ECC to S4Hana Cloud or S4 on-premise to Cloud, a team at SAP is activated.

It is called ECS – Enterprise Cloud Services

Here, a team of different support is assigned to help the customer through the entire process-

In that process, it is important to know who from ECS controls the process and who can help you further.

Support features

Enterprise support for On-premise systems is something that the customer pays approx. 23% for.

It gives access to a lot of support and a lot of help for self-help. It is not consultant help, but there are many experts who can come up with the right way to what to do in each situation.

If you have purchased cloud products, the cloud product you have purchased is basically part of the Enterprise Support Cloud Edition (ESCE), here I have a good knowledge of making full use of Enterprise Support.

In the past you had an assigned Enterprise support advisor, but now it is centralized, and you must look through the website yourself to see what you are entitled to. My help is beneficial here.

Deal Support

In each contract with SAP, different support options must be considered. In connection with go live, you can look at help and support for go live. Something that often comes later and with a large invoice.

Before each contract signature, you should look at what help is available in connection with

– Implementation, Go live, and migration processes.

 

There may be maintenance on On Premise software that is not used, but which you contractually still pay for, and which can be difficult to get out of without a new deal.

In connection with the CPEA (Cloud Platform enterprise agreement), SAP credits are often included. And often they are not used before the end of the year.
