Performing an assessment of the existing business requirements and having the capability to quickly distinguish the “fits & gaps” with SAP enables the Panterra Group to effectively estimate implementation and upgrade projects. We do this by assessing the landscape and determining the number and relative complexity of the required deliverables. This also serves to refine the scope of the project, which is a critical management aspect of large system implementations.

Panterra Group professionals know a successful data conversion requires more than the mapping of data. It requires a thorough understanding of the business process design to ensure data is cleansed and converted correctly. Accurate master data is the key to executing successful business transactions. A critical success factor to every implementation has been our data conversion expertise and methodology which systematizes the process of extracting, interpreting, cleansing and loading data, resulting in pristine data integrity between legacy and target systems.

Producing high quality process, detailed, and technical designs is the cornerstone of building a sound and supportable system. The designs feed the development process for both configuration and custom programming. A consistent, disciplined testing approach including well-documented unit tests, integration test and functional acceptance tests, ensures high quality results.

A successful system cut over requires thorough planning, coordination, and communication to ensure a smooth and transparent conversion. Without keen attention to detail when converting data, systems, and processes, a business may face costly disruptions. Panterra Group consultants have planned, managed and executed many successful system cut overs and welcome the opportunity to share the experience, knowledge, and methods that have helped our clients through successful system conversions.
