CHALLENGE

Due to the absence of dedicated software, a lack of information authorization control and automated data retrieval, strategic management and processes in organizations are complex and inefficient.

SOLUTION

A cloud-based solution provides comprehensive access to information planning, customizable roles, embedded communication tools and notifications, as well as an advanced analytics system based on SAP Analytics Cloud.

The solution delivered by the team helps organizations bridge the gap between strategy and execution. Companies can be better equipped to measure their performance against objectives, make timely adjustments if needed, and increase accountability at all levels of the organization.

Here are some of the solution highlights:

Can be accessed anywhere and anytime, thanks to the cloud architecture.
Provides a consistent information environment by integrating real-time data from other systems.
Allows organizations to clearly articulate their corporate strategy and show how it cascades throughout the organization.
Enables information planning based on the company departments and a customizable role system.
Ensures a full-range view of the particular initiatives or scorecards thanks to the analysis of data from various sources.
Encourages the creation of reports that benefit the strategic planning and execution processes.
Provides a collaborative platform for aligning day-to-day operations with the mission and vision of the organization.

Challenge

Among the key challenges our team faced during the project planning and development were:

The absence of BTP CF environment in UAE/KSA regions.
The multi-cloud deployment strategy for such customers.
There is no SAP-provided ORM for HANA database for NodeJS.
Integration with customers' systems, e.g. Active Directory, and different databases.
