Designing an SAP Solution is the fourth course in the SAP Technology Consultant Professional Certificate program. The course dives into the SAP Implementation lifecycle so you can immerse yourself in the key phases, including design, pitch, and re-design.
You’ll work with SAP Activate methodology and look at how to identify business requirements to determine system and data requirements. You’ll learn how to interrogate the gaps between SAP technical capabilities within Business Technology Platform and the customer’s existing environment. You’ll explore the SAP iterative approach, understand how the predefined content available for the most common SAP solutions can provide you a baseline to build your demos and showcase the solution capabilities. You’ll learn how to incorporate customer feedback so any gaps will be addressed and how to reach consensus regarding what should be developed, when it should be developed and how it should be developed. By the end of this course, you will be able to: Explain what a technology consultant does in the Design, Pitch and Re-Design phases of the SAP Implementation lifecycle. Explain how to review a solution proposal and business requirements to determine SAP application technical requirements for customers. Describe how to interrogate gaps between SAP technical capabilities and the customer’s existing environment. Explain how to design an SAP technical solution that fulfills the business requirements documented in the customer interview, analysis, and communication phases. Develop a Technical Design Outline in accordance with provided parameters.

In this module, you will learn best practices for communicating and presenting the Technical Design Solution and implementation roadmap to your customer stakeholders and decision-makers. You will learn how to incorporate customer feedback in your solution and manage design limitations through the implementation roadmap before you move for a sign-off on the solution and the roadmap. The sign-off is followed by finalizing the proposed architecture, associated tools, and the proposed Bill of Materials before you finally move into the execution, configuration, and testing phase of the SAP implementation lifecycle.
