UCS Solutions, a SAP services and hosting partner, has announced it has been certified by SAP AG as a provider of solution implementation based on the Run SAP methodology.

UCS Solutions has incorporated the methodology into its implementation standards focused on the retail and wholesale sectors.

“By adopting the Run SAP methodology into our own implementation standards, we are going beyond the vision of implementing the solutions required by our customers,” said Chris Shortt, Senior Executive, UCS Solutions. “We are now providing our customers the proven methodology for managing their SAP applications through end-to-end solution operations standards. This will empower our customers to manage their SAP applications more efficiently and lower the unit cost of computing.” 

Run SAP methodology is a phased methodology based on world-class knowledge. It provides best-practice procedures, content, services, training and tools for end-to-end solution operations, along with a standardised and proven implementation method. The Run SAP methodology focuses on application management, business process operations, and administration of SAP solutions. The methodology describes how support should be implemented across the life cycle design, set-up, operations and optimisation. In addition, with its best-practice documents for solution operations, it describes how to implement end-to-end solution operations for different SAP software-based business processes.

“We applaud UCS Solutions' achievement as a SAP services partner certified in the Run SAP methodology,” said Dr Uwe Hommel, executive vice-president of Active Global Support at SAP AG. “By adopting the end-to-end solution operations standards provided by the Run SAP methodology, UCS Solutions will deliver to its customers a higher level of effectiveness and efficiency.”
 

Run SAP is an integral part of SAP Enterprise Support services, a holistic support model designed to enable continuous improvement and successful solution operations at lower risk and cost.

SAP retail customers will realise the benefits of operating with the end-to-end standards. SAP standards for solution operations are a prerequisite for the continuous improvement of SAP solution operations. Not only do they enable automation, reducing the cost of operations, but also improved traceability and an audit trail, helping companies to achieve cost-efficiency, quality assurance and compliance enablement.
