Integrating SAP with Microsoft Project made easy
One of the biggest issues facing SAP customers today is trying to integrate non-SAP applications such as Microsoft Project to SAP. TAMS have solved this issue as part of our end to end solution offerings by delivering a solution that enables the seamless integration of Microsoft Project with SAP.
In the current business environment the scheduling of resources will become critical as demand increases. SAP is the leading ERP business backbone system in the world and Microsoft Project offers unsurpassed capabilities and ease of use as the benchmark scheduling and resource management tool. Companies with scheduling and resource utilisation requirements are using SAP as the core product for enterprise financials and management accounting (controlling). Experienced schedulers and project managers prefer the project management / scheduling focus of products such as Microsoft Project for crucial execution processes such as planning, scheduling and execution tracking. Pre-packaged process integration retains the strengths of both worlds and enables best of breed use of software packages.
The integrated solution is designed under the assumption that SAP will drive the overall business process while Microsoft Project provides the main scheduling and planning functions (time and resource management). By integrating the systems more effective and efficient decisions can be made for the overall organisation. Integrating SAP and Microsoft Project will play a core role in presenting all parties with the same accurate and system validated enterprise wide view. It also provides decision makers with the confidence to ensure their actions are based on credible information.
Our solution provides an out-of-the-box business process integration that synchronises data from key SAP modules such as SAP Project System (PS) and SAP Plant Maintenance (PM). Getting data into and out of SAP from non-SAP applications can be difficult and expensive. Extraordinary amounts of developer resources can be consumed on this seemingly simple task, contributing to project delays and budget overruns. Even after a solution is finally working it is often complex and more expensive to maintain than it was to develop.
Our solution eliminates all these problems. A packaged solution to a critical pain point requires less people, less time, less money, reduces risk, and potentially produces better credible, accurate and actionable information.
