Experience SAP Podcast: What is the secret to success for projects on SAP BTP?

Mar. 2, 2023

The sovanta project approach has always been a little different. On the one hand, we follow the human-centered design approach, i.e. we look for solutions that focus on the end user and really help in the daily business. On the other hand, we’ve been working in agile teams for a long time. We always try to visual solutions in a very early stage, test it with users and adapt the solution accordingly – that saves our customers time and money. But our project approach only unfolds its full power in the cloud. No more waiting for the next release: Our interdisciplinary teams manage projects on SAP BTP from day one in close coordination with customers and end users.

We have always worked according to the “fail early” principle: we deliver solutions quickly, even in early project phases, and test them with end users before we develop something elaborate that misses the mark.

This podcast episode is all about success factors for projects on the SAP Business Technology Platform. Host Christian Heinrich invited his sovanta colleagues Jakob Frankenbach, Head of Development, and Dominik Steinkönig, Senior Project Manager, to join the conversation. Who belongs in a cloud team? How does collaboration take place between the various experts in the team? How are the tasks distributed? How important is the understanding of the other competencies in the team? What role does the SAP standard and especially SAP Fiori play on the SAP Business Technology Platform? And what is actually a proxy PO? The two experts share their experiences in cloud projects from two exciting perspectives: From the perspective of the Project Manager as well as from the perspective of the Solution Architect.
