Progress Strategy

The starting point for any strategic review is the definition of business objectives and goals. These business objectives and goals are necessary when the enterprise attempts to gain leverage from any previously implemented solution. The solutions in this sense should be the enabler of the objectives and goals and be cognizant of:

• THE BUSINESS PROCESSES -  "what to do"
• THE I.T. -  "what to use"
• THE PEOPLE -  "who has to do it"
• THE ORGANIZATION - "when to do and how to proceed"

Every company is in a unique situation and needs a suitable, customized approach for defining their I.T strategy.

There are many factors that could impact an approach such as:

• Corporate culture e.g. top-down or bottom-up decision making processes
• Past experiences with SAP implementations
• Key studies and evaluations, past or present
• Objectives for undertaking a corporate solution strategy review
• Availability of supporting methodologies and tools
• General readiness for taking on the Solution Strategy effort
