Geus Technology, a leading SAP Partner with a proven ability to develop and provide its customers with strategic, cost-effective solutions for SAP systems, is offering SAP Basis Services for Technical Installation and implementation to our customers.

Geus Technology has the technical experience and staff necessary to successfully guide your organization through an effective installation and implementation support for new SAP projects. We work with you to ensure the technical landscape meets current and future needs of your SAP systems. We offer:

Any new SAP implementation project brings in challenges on "What we need" in terms of hardware, software, network, high availability, Disaster recovery, add-on tools, and interfaces. An additional challenge is selecting the right hardware, operating system and database platform

The next set of challenges is determining how much is needed, in terms of hardware infra-structure, implementation and support resources, training, etc. It is important that your new SAP environment is capable of handling your business requirements and volume in the most effective way. Capacity planning, sizing, DR strategy, High Availability, etc. are the important factors to be considered carefully for a new SAP implementation.

Changes in SAP products, hardware, operating system, and database platform leads to many choices to meet the business needs for required performance at a competitive cost. The challenge is to select the right combination, which provides an optimum return on investment (ROI).

The contribution of a SAP certified and experienced technical team becomes an important factor for an on-time and in-budget execution of an Implementation project. Geus Technology has the experience, leadership, and resources to provide you with a timely, cost-effective, technical installation and implementation of support services. We have supplemented the SAP implementation process with our own technical accelerators to enhance the success of the implementation. Our accelerators assist you with a structured approach to handle installation, technical support, change management, and provide a successful, proven, detailed and complete project plan.

During our implementation process, we assist you with:

	Technical Project Management
	Coordination with SAP support
	Hardware/OS/database selection
	Basis support
	Change Management
	Migration Landscape
	Execution of migration activities
	Technical support and tuning
	Add-on products installation
	Backup strategy and execution
	High availability Disaster recovery on new platform
	Post implementation support

During the blueprint phase, we will assist you with all phases of technical infrastructure planning. Assist you with identifying the correct mix of Operating System, database, and SAP to make sure that they will function correctly together. Many installations have external systems that will need to be evaluated as well. The bolt-on systems will be reviewed and recommendations given for infrastructure requirements to implement them. During this time we will undertake the following activities:

The Blueprint phase in the new implementation process is to create detailed action plans on all aspects of the implementation. We can provide you with resource planning, budgeting and technical project plans to ensure successful completion. We check that all of the necessary technical prerequisites are ready such as: Hardware, Operating system, Database and SAP software. We assist you to co-ordinate with SAP support for technical requirements e.g. connection to SAP support, request and install SAP licenses, co-ordinate with SAP support for technical issues during implementation project.

The Implementation phase starts with installation of hardware, storage, network, and backup infrastructure. We work with your technical team to verify the SAP implementation infrastructure requirements. We also verify schedule and availability of all SAP and non-SAP software components for new installation.

Our implementation work starts with the installation and technical configuration of the development system. During this phase we will perform the installation of all SAP systems (development, test, training, Production, etc.) and perform the technical configuration for backup, high availability, DR, etc. We also work with the project team to define and implement SAP desktop client software and the change in management strategy.

After the installation of all non-production SAP landscape instances, we will provide support for all technical, performance, and change management tasks. Throughout the period of implementation, processes are refined to streamline and ensure success during the cutover of the production system. Before we proceed to the Go-Live phase, we make sure we receive full management approval.

We then prepare a detailed plan and checklist for the go-live phase; building contingency plans for various technical aspects of the project. We also perform volume testing (if required) and technical performance tuning of the production system during the go-live phase.

We work with project and customer technical staff to provide post go-live technical support and knowledge transfer. During this phase, we work with you to implement production support processes, sharing our knowledge and experience with operating procedures to support an SAP environment. After going live with the production system, we schedule a post go-live check with SAP support and assist with implementing recommendations from SAP support.
