Combine with other Add-Ons

Business Analytics Focus

All Business Analytics ASAP Business Add-Ons follow a very similar structure and similar naming conventions Like elements can be combined together, and especially initial kick-off, discovery and use-case analysis sessions should be performed jointly Easily build your custom project plans by combining HANA activities with Business Analytics services of similar naming Assumes most-detailed approach, for (modified) RDS or using pre-built content remove selectively elements not needed

ERP, BW on HANA, CRM, etc. Focus

Combine within ERP, BW, CRM, etc. projects to add HANA activities Structure and naming conventions will be different, but in most cases structure should be obvious

Consider carefully which elements you need. For a BW on HANA implementation that simply migrates the database, there shouldnt be a need for modeling, for instance
Realize that the HANA Add-On assumes that the HANA appliance is configured prior to Project Start (similar to RDS approach)

HANA Appliance
The HANA Add-On does not include purchase of the HANA appliance This is assumed a technical prerequisite and should take place before any Project Team is engaged. Questions around Production sizing are accommodated in Add-On

HANA Install & Config

The HANA Add-On does not include the standard selfcontained ITTS Install & Configure service of 7-10 days delivered remotely for configuration and patching HANA and SLT setup Activities associated with Install & Config are assumed to have taken place prior to the start of the Project Schedule any Install & Config services separate and ideally in advance, especially Development prior to Project Start

RDS or Custom Project?

HANA Add-On primarily intended for custom projects
RDS typically has its own implementation methodology No Blueprint Fixed Scope Documented implementation steps RDS implementations are typically shorter in duration. Verify whether an RDS answers customer needs before proposing a custom project

Delivery of the appliance requires several weeks lead time

Final Preparation
No HANA-specific elements have been included for Final Preparation. Standard ASAP activities for Final Preparation apply The Add-On assumes that at the end of Realization all content has been developed, tested and promoted to the Production environment Final Preparation prepares the customer for Go-Live

Go-Live and Support

No HANA-specific elements have been included for Go-Live and Support. Standard ASAP activities for Go-Live and Support apply Since all content has been developed, tested and promoted to the Production environment, Go-Live and Support should be a formality, and is no different from other SAP projects At the end of Go-Live and Support the complete solution of HANA and other components (Business Analytics, SAP applications, etc.) is live in Production
