Integrating SAP with Primavera made easy

One of the biggest problems facing SAP customers today is trying to integrate non-SAP applications such as Primavera to SAP.

Using SAP Enterprise Project Connection (EPC) provides a solution to this problem. SAP EPC allows you to quickly and easily integrate the SAP Project System and SAP Plant Maintenance applications with Oracle Primavera server versions.

SAP EPC synchronises project planning, execution, resource, expenses, and actual cost information across systems with prebuilt, automated, and interactive workflows and business rules. The application ensures that timely, accurate data and key metrics required to plan, schedule, and manage projects effectively are available on demand.

TAMS is the only Australian SAP Service Partner implementing the SAP EPC application. All work is done in Australia by our highly experienced team. We use prebuilt, best-practice data mappings, workflows and business templates to deliver integration solutions for the following scenarios:

Capital Projects,
Maintenance, and
Shutdowns.

The Key To Success

The technical implementation of SAP EPC is the easy part of the project. SAP EPC has out-of-the-box connectors and prebuilt, best-practice data mappings, workflows, and business process templates.

SAP EPC can also be easily tailored by our technical team to meet customer-specific requirements.

To ensure project success organisations need to define their vision and align stakeholder expectations before the official kickoff of the SAP EPC Project. To do this we facilitate the TAMS Integration Workshop with key personnel from your Project Management Office (PMO) and key users from your project management applications.

During the workshop we:

Review your current business processes
Identify your "to be" business processes
Align your SAP project structures with your Primavera project structures
Define your field level mapping
Document our findings and then present them to stakeholders

Quick ROI

The solution is deployed quickly and organisations can realise the benefits immediately. The average SAP EPC implementation time is twelve weeks.

Easy To Use

SAP EPC can be installed and configured to synchronise information between SAP and Primavera in hours, not weeks or months.

Easily Tailored

With SAP EPC, you can map to your business processes without custom coding. While it is delivered with out-of-the-box processes specifically designed for enterprise project management environments, the application can be easily tailored by our team to meet your specific requirements
