Management of organisational changes
With "Next-Generation Support", SAP promises its customers self-service components, digital interaction with support in real time, a particularly good digital customer experience, for example through build-in support with the help of SAP CoPilot, and the use of innovations such as AI and Machine Learning. Objective: Enquiries should be answered in real-time, as far as possible, as a prerequisite for real-time business models. At the DSAG Annual Congress 2018, I wanted to know from Andreas Heckmann, Head of SAP Support, what support services SAP customers will need in the future, how SAP will support end-to-end digital processes in hybrid systems, where the differences between ECC and SAP S/4HANA support requests lie, and what impact innovations (machine learning, AI, predictive analytics, ...) have on SAP support.
SAP Cloud ALM starts with the implementation portal for SAP S/4HANA Cloud. It is expected to be available in the fourth quarter of 2018 with the next release of SAP S/4HANA Cloud. SAP plans to extend SAP Cloud ALM beyond implementation support for SAP S/4HANA Cloud with a roadmap for the entire application lifecycle of all SAP cloud products to be available by 2021. The implementation portal for SAP S/4HANA Cloud supports customers in defining the scope of implementation, with Fit-to-Standard Workshops, the configuration of SAP S/4HANA Cloud and tracking the progress of the project. SAP Cloud ALM is designed to complement SAP Solution Manager, SAP's leading ALM solution for on-premise applications. With the introduction of SAP Cloud ALM, customers can select the most suitable SAP ALM solution for them, ensuring a fast implementation and optimal operation of their SAP solutions. SAP Cloud ALM is available to all Enterprise Support customers based on their existing contract.
