SAP Application Management Services (AMS) free up resources for strategic IT projects

More capacities with SAP Application Management Services (AMS)

Complex system environments, increasing demands on IT, scarce internal resources, and a shortage of skilled workers on the labor market – there is much to be said in favor of outsourcing the operation of SAP applications to a specialized service provider. If an expert external partner keeps the solutions and business processes running, the CIO and his team have the time to focus on strategic tasks. That’s how valantic frees up resources for important projects for customers who choose SAP Application Management Services (SAP AMS) – for example, digitalization with SAP S/4HANA.

Day-to-day business and digital transformation…

Operating and maintaining mission-critical SAP environments takes time and requires extensive expertise; after all, here the focus is on the digital heart of a business and that requires appropriate attention. Knowing each module exactly and keeping up with innovations is time-consuming, however. In addition, there are daily tasks such as monitoring, system adjustments, troubleshooting, and user support, which also tie up capacities. Capacities are then lacking for strategically important tasks, such as the further development of IT and digital transformation, which are burning issues for many companies. At the same time, however, even during large IT projects such as the migration to SAP S/4HANA, daily system operation must continue without any compromises. So how is it possible to manage day-to-day business and transformation work at the same time?  

This is where SAP AMS come into play. At valantic, our experts take care of their customers’ productive systems reliably – on a flexible scale according to individual requirements, on through to round-the-clock support. This unburdens companies’ IT experts and enables them to devote themselves to their core tasks and digitalization. Therefore, customers benefit twice: On the one hand, they can rely on efficient, scalable SAP operations, and on the other hand, they can concentrate on future projects. 

The valantic AMS team knows the SAP solutions and modules inside and out and supports them throughout their entire life cycle.

In addition, they answer user inquiries, solve problems that arise, and handle the further development of application environments.
