Upgrades

We realize today’s competitive business environment is dynamic and demanding, not allowing any component of the organization to remain still, including your SAP HR system. We understand the challenges that your HR and IT organizations face in maintaining systems while trying to keep pace with latest changes in technology. If you are considering upgrading your SAP HR system, call upon the expertise of Whitaker-Taylor to help guide you through the project with our best-practice approach and avoid the pitfalls that are so common in other projects. Prior to the start of the engagement, we will perform a upgrade analysis specific to your organization that will identify value areas and benefits of an upgrade, providing a foundation to develop a cost-effective and efficient upgrade and roll-out strategy.


Our analysis will provide you with the following information needed to make an educated decision on your upgrade strategy and approach.

  • Recommended roll-out strategy
  • Project Scope for Technical and Functional upgrade
  • Identifying and ranking the greatest value-ad functionality for your organization
  • Roll-out plan, including projected timeline
  • Testing Plan
  • Training Plan
  • Detailed project costs

Our goal is to allow your organization to benefit from the features/functionality of the upgraded SAP HR system while receiving a Return on Investment as quickly as possible. We do this by understanding where inefficiencies currently exist and utilizing our process and technology knowledge to improve those areas as part of the upgrade project. Unlike many other firms, we grasp the importance of harmonizing process with technology and maintain that focus throughout the engagement.

Count on our experienced consultants to make your upgrade a success. Our teams average over 8 years of SAP HR industry knowledge providing strong project leadership combined with functional and technical SAP HR expertise.

Major & Minor Project Activity

In between your SAP HR implementation and the next upgrade, you will likely be focused on meeting and executing on the demands of the business. Many of these activities will require changes or additions to the SAP environment. Whether you are dealing with a Merger or Acquisition, adding a new Benefit plan, or seeking to leverage your investment in SAP further, Whitaker-Taylor is here to help.

Special projects

Like most organizations, you probably struggle with managing and delivering special projects while continuing to meet the current operational demands.

How can you possibly integrate a new Acquisition on a tight timeline while still providing operational SAP HR support for Payroll, Time, Benefits, ESS/MSS and the rest of your configuration? Trust Whitaker-Taylor to partner with you in these efforts with our flexible and cost-efficient consulting solutions. Our knowledgeable team will partner with your organization to backfill the current internal SAP support team or take the lead on the project activities, integrating seamlessly with members of your organization. Unlike most consulting firms, we specialize in providing highly skilled and experienced consultants who can excel in a variety of roles.


Other projects where we can assist:

  • Implementation of any new SAP HR sub-module
  • Mergers and Acquisitions
  • Enterprise Re-organization
  • Year-End Processing
  • Open Enrollment
  • Configuration of new Pay & Time Policies
  • Integration with 3rd Party Systems

Small Projects with Major Results

We understand that the initial implementation cannot address all of your needs and there remain opportunities to add features or streamline processes. Below are just a few of the areas where we can add value:

  • Interface Analysis and Reconciliation
  • Integration of additional checks and controls within the Payroll engine
  • Changes to Legal/Business policies
  • Custom Reporting (BI/BW, ABAP)
  • Claims Processing

Whether small or large, Whitaker-Taylor will partner with your organization on any type of project to help you achieve the maximum value from your SAP HR system.
