SAP Upgradation Project

It is a periodic project that companies implement to upgrade their system to the latest version. Under this project, the goal of the company is to technically upgrade and to cover the evolution of the SAP technical enhancement package.

For instance, if a company wishes to upgrade to SAP ERP 6.0, it needs to implement this project. As a company needs to change its operating system hardware and database platform. Plus, they need to perform a Unicode conversion.

This up-gradation project allows the companies to select from the two strategies that are resource minimize strategy and downtimes minimize strategy. The technical team needs to select this strategy for this project after a deep evaluation of technical considerations and economic needs.

The challenge of project

Resource Minimize Strategy: This is the preferred strategy if the business has hardware resource constraints but can afford longer downtime.

  • Lower demand on system resources
  • Increased production downtime

Downtime Minimize StrategyThis is the preferred strategy if the business cannot afford longer downtimes and if sufficient hardware resources are available.

  • Shorter production downtime
  • Higher demand on system resources

Most of the Companies use the Downtime Minimize Strategy.
