In the meantime, the first Focused Build implementation projects have been completed and the experiences have been presented at the DSAG Annual Conference and the SAP Solution Manager Theme Days.<\/p>\n

Even if a few teething problems had to be overcome in the projects at first: The combination of the established SolMan services and the processes introduced with Focused Build is convincing.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

SAP Focused Build is installed as an add-on in the existing SAP Solution Manager. Focused Build convinces with the added value at the interface between business units and IT with preconfigured end-to-end processes.<\/p>\n

SAP Solution Manager is more of a solution for IT, integrating end users into IT processes or communicating with IT, for example in service desk or incident management.<\/p>\n

The Focused Build processes, on the other hand, are rather a solution for the business departments in the preparation for S\/4 Hana or in the context of the implementation, especially for the project organization.<\/p>\n

Many companies have started to prepare conceptually for S\/4 Hana. Some are already in the middle of implementation. Each of the projects must meet a variety of requirements and satisfy the needs of the individual departments as well as take into account the direction of the entire company and its future processes.<\/p>\n

The requirements-to-deploy process of Focused Build is implemented end-to-end for precisely this purpose. Instead of documenting requirements in a standalone tool or on paper in implementation projects, with Focused Build the complete requirements description, coordination and processing takes place within SAP Solution Manager.<\/p>\n

Here, Solution Manager uses its integration into the SAP landscape to bring requirements securely and in a coordinated manner from the project system through the development, test and acceptance system to production.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the released requirements can be incorporated into the modeling of the business processes and are thus the basis for configuration and implementation.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, it makes sense to create the test cases and test case descriptions together with the documentation of the business processes. This reduces the effort while increasing quality at the same time.<\/p>\n

Another component is project management. This has a feature for S\/4 projects and provides numerous dashboards for project planning and control.<\/p>\n

With the delivery of Focused Build processes, project management can be used without lengthy design or complex implementation. Focused Build supports the now widely established agile approach to releases.<\/p>\n

Integration with JIRA plays a particularly important role here, since many development departments today develop in sprints and waves. Professional test management is required for consistent release management.<\/p>\n

The Focused Build test suite supports the establishment of an effective test organization with a focus on repetitive testing within a project.<\/p>\n

Unlike the standard processes delivered with Solution Manager, Focused Solutions are designed to be used with little customization.<\/p>\n

In return, the companies receive tested, end-to-end and highly integrated processes, from data collection in the specialist departments to dashboards for project organization and, in particular, for management reporting.<\/p>\n

For this, companies need to deal with the Focused Build processes before the start of the S\/4 project, especially to carry out the necessary communication, training and organizational roll-out into the project organization.<\/p>\n

The roll-out should be completed before the start of the S\/4 project so that the business units and IT can focus on the content aspects of the project.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
