• Set up initial system landscape.

Phase 3 – Explore

• Perform fit-gap analysis between standard SAP PP functionality and client needs.

• Create solution design documents.

• Demonstrate prototype with sample data.

Phase 4 – Realize

• Configure master data and transactional processes.

• Set up BOMs, routings, production versions, MRP settings, and capacity planning.

• Perform unit and integration testing.

Phase 5 – Deploy

• Migrate master and transactional data from legacy systems.

• Train end-users on production planning processes.

• Conduct User Acceptance Testing (UAT).

• Go-live and start production tracking in the system.

Phase 6 – Run

• Monitor system performance and fix production planning issues.

• Optimize planning parameters for efficiency.

• Continuous improvement through business feedback.

• Production Planners and Shop Floor Executives who want to streamline manufacturing processes using SAP S/4HANA.

• Manufacturing Managers seeking to improve production efficiency, scheduling, and resource utilization.

• SAP Consultants (Functional/Technical) aiming to specialize in the PP module.
