SAP EPPM – Implementation and consulting
SAP EPPM – Strategisches Portfolio- und Projektmanagement mit Weitblick.
In a world of increasing complexity, limited resources and rapid innovation, strategic project and portfolio management is becoming a decisive factor for success.
​
With SAP EPPM (Enterprise Portfolio and Project Management), companies gain control over their projects, resources, budgets and strategic initiatives – holistically, integrated and in real time.
​
At innoVisory, we support you in the introduction, optimisation and further development of your EPPM solution – with a holistic consulting approach, in-depth SAP expertise and a deep understanding of processes.
What is SAP EPPM?
SAP EPPM is the central platform for professional project and portfolio management in the SAP ecosystem. The aim is to manage strategically relevant initiatives more consistently – from the initial idea to implementation, monitoring and evaluation.
​
The focus is on the following key questions:
-
Which projects contribute to our corporate strategy?
-
How do we prioritise limited resources efficiently?
-
How do we manage time, budget and quality transparently and reliably?
-
What risks exist at the portfolio level?
SAP EPPM helps you make informed decisions based on valid data – integrated into your existing processes, harmonised with SAP S/4HANA and flexibly adaptable to your organisation.
The components of SAP EPPM – an overview.
SAP EPPM is not a single module, but rather a combination of various functional components from the SAP environment that together form a powerful integrated system:
-
SAP Project System (PS)
The classic module for operational project management in SAP: mapping of project structures (e.g. PSP elements), budget planning, schedule control, progress tracking and cost control. PS is the backbone of financial and time-based project management. -
SAP Portfolio and Project Management (PPM)
The strategic cockpit for project portfolios: evaluation, selection and prioritisation of project ideas, management of project proposals, resource planning and progress monitoring at portfolio level. -
SAP Commercial Project Management (CPM)
Particularly relevant for project-oriented service companies: CPM offers functions for quotation calculation, contract management, billing logic and resource control in customer project business.
