FAQ

What is SAP EPPM?

Think of it as a dynamic decision-support system for all of a company's initiatives. Its core purpose is to create a single source of truth by consolidating financial, resource, and operational data. This allows leadership to objectively compare potential projects and make data-driven investment decisions that align with strategic goals.

What deployment options are available for SAP EPPM?

SAP EPPM offers flexible deployment options to fit different IT strategies. It can be deployed on-premise as part of an SAP S/4HANA installation, or in the cloud through SAP S/4HANA Cloud, private and public edition (as part of RISE with SAP). This allows businesses to choose the model that best suits their security, scalability, and cost requirements.

How does SAP EPPM support collaboration?

SAP EPPM supports collaboration through real-time dashboards, seamless document sharing, and integrated communication channels for all project stakeholders.

What is the difference between SAP PS and SAP EPPM?

SAP Project System (PS) is tailored for detailed operational management of individual projects within SAP S/4HANA environments, ideal for specific project execution scenarios. In contrast, SAP EPPM is broader, integrating strategic portfolio oversight and management of multiple projects to align overall organizational goals with operational execution.
