Thinking out loud

The low risk SAP upgrade strategy from Oxygen
Read article

Oxygen’s recommended approach is to start with an Oxygen SmartStart Technical Upgrade – a fixed priced SAP technical upgrade typically completed over a 10 to 12 week period, with a clear business case and tightly-defined project deliverables. As part of this process a complete preliminary review is carried out and rectification completed for any basic customisations or enhancements completed.

The Oxygen solution has been developed through our many years of SAP Upgrade Project experience, with numerous SAP ERP 6.0 Upgrades completed (both technical and functional upgrades).

Our methodology
To ensure the project is delivered within time and budget and with an acceptable level of quality, Oxygen utilises a tailored ASAP methodology customised to ensure the project is completed quickly but also to a high level of quality.

Specifically:

There are formal entry and exit points through each of the phases and a detailed set of documents created through the project
Our experience allows us to use our vast array of internal intellectual property to fast track the project

Our unique approach:

A key component of the project is to ensure the functionality that currently exists, continues to work effectively for the users
The new development system is up and running, within two weeks of the project starting and the new system is fine tuned and tested from then on
Our approach enables us to complete up to four rounds of testing, to ensure an effective and low risk transition
