Any business is affected by the pace of the globalization, digitization and customer expectations. These factors impact companies significantly which leads to their IT departments needing to change their models and their infrastructure to be competitive and sustainable. In terms of SAP projects companies have many bottlenecks as well as future requirements to their ERP Systems. IT decision-makers require for the SAP projects the highest quality in relation with attractive costs. By outsourcing the whole project or solely some parts to a Near Shore provider this can be achieved easily.

Lupus Consulting combines onsite and remote activities based on our experience and best-practices. We understand that for development projects close interaction is required and expected. In order to benefit from our Nearshore approach, we offer a diverse team to support the requirements and to apply a noticeable twist to the pricing. The Single-Point-of-Contact ensures proper allocation of the tasks to the Nearshore team and also conducts the Quality Assurance process if /where it is needed.  The Lead Developer remains the contact person, additionally different experts within the team are also available for any clarifications and requests

Our collaboration approach is supported by:

  • Best-Practice communication patterns
  • Tools for virtual cooperation (e.g. Jira and MS Teams)
  • High degree of availability on project and non-project days
  • Joint planning of tasks and progress tracking

Best-Practice Methodology:

Collaboration approach

Lupus Consulting has proven track-record in customization of SAP solutions and development of apps. Our best-practice approach is based on 20 years of experience in which we have mastered various development methodologies.

In case of predictable and commodity activities, we recommend to work in a classical waterfall approach. The changes and enhancements, for example code-cleaning, syntax and automated activities, or form technology conversions are clearly defined and fit into this methodology.

Complex developments with high degree of coordination between the development team and business are based on agile approaches. Our best-practice approach is based on a 3-weeks interaction with a predefined backlog and clearly defined acceptance criteria.
