Rapid-deployment solutions are ready-to-use combinations of best-in-class software, pre-configured content and pre-defined services that have been specifically tailored to industries or Line of Business needs, all at a fixed price with a fixed implementation time. They offer a quick, cost-effective method for standardizing processes and adopting the latest innovations in mobility and in-memory analytics with fewer migration risks. The average timeframe for a typical deployment is less than 90 days, which helps customers lower the cost of implementation and speed up time to value, while retaining the flexibility to extend the solution wherever needed.
Westernacher is an SAP-qualified rapid-deployment implementation service provider leveraging the rapid-deployment methodology and content. This further extends Westernacher’s capabilities, resources and expertise for comprehensive SAP solutions. Rapid-deployment solutions allow customers to extend their SAP coverage beyond the SAP ERP application into new areas such as line-of-business and industry-specific solutions or innovation areas.
