Implementing and Optimizing Business Process-Based SAP Solutions
To implement their corporate strategy and business requirements, companies need a fast and efficient way of mapping business processes and new business concepts to the SAP environment. Developing a seamless value chain and designing the corresponding business processes is also a key requirement for adopting SAP’s service-oriented architecture (SOA).
ARIS Business Architect for SAP and the ARIS Value Engineering for SAP method provide procedure models, methods, technologies, and reference content that make the flexible enterprise a reality. These are the first of many practical customer benefits to be generated from the strategic development cooperation between SAP and IDS Scheer.
ARIS Business Architect for SAP enables enterprises to define business management requirements from a process perspective. Requirements are mapped using business process models and can be enriched with all the necessary additional information and subjected to analysis. The bidirectional interface to SAP Solution Manager enables the models to be constructed on the basis of SAP reference content for a process-based SAP solution. They can be seamlessly implemented in the SAP Solution Manager.
These process models therefore represent an important aid to making business decisions, while also ensuring that the required processes can be implemented in the SAP system. A special BPEL interface to SAP Exchange Infrastructure (SAP XI) supports end-to-end integration of existing IT systems.
Your benefits:
- Process-oriented and model-based requirements analysis and resulting business blueprint plus alignment of business processes with the SAP IT architecture
- Comparison and alignment of all end-to-end business processes with SAP reference processes using ARIS, SAP Solution Manager, and SAP XI
- Integrated ARIS method ensures transparent documentation and communication of the processes to be implemented
- End-to-end process-based tests
- Training and SAP courses can leverage the requirements defined in ARIS
- Reuse of SAP process models for other application scenarios (IT architecture management, SOA projects, risk management projects, compliance projects, etc.)
- Integration of SAP Solution Manager and SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure (SAP NetWeaver XI)
