At Principle Info-Tech, we’re eager to help, and we work well with both your project team and the end-user community.

Interface/Conversion Development
Most consultancies overlook this important component of a project. Our staff understands that unless you can successfully convert data from your legacy system and interface to your feeder systems, the project will fail. Our comprehensive project approach includes interface/conversion development expertise.

Training
It is critical the end-user community embrace the new system. We believe in the train-the-trainer approach to end-user training. Our consultants help your trainers ensure the end-user community is prepared for the new system.

Support
As we transition the new system to you, our relationship does not end. We stand ready to help you at any time. We are committed to ensuring your new solution accomplishes the results you set out to achieve.

Our Capabilities Include:

  • Implementation services (Netweaver and Microsoft SQL)
  • Upgrades and Assessments
  • Remote Service and Help Desk
  • Training
  • Rescues

Implementation:
A successful implementation begins with good planning & communication. Solid foundation established through requirements gathering, solution design, comprehensive project planning, and technical infrastructure setup and installation

Our knowledge transfer approach assures long-term success for our clients. Before we even begin the implementation, we examine and evaluate your business processes in order to develop a solution specific to your organization’s goals and objectives. Throughout the project, Principle Info-Tech provides a web-based portal to facilitate the project team’s communication and collaboration.

We don’t just build an application for you. When the project is complete, our clients know how to use and manage the solution themselves because they are actively involved throughout the project. This collaborative effort helps to ensure a completely self-sufficient application environment.  After we transition the new system to you, we stand ready to help at any time. Principle Info-Tech is committed to creating success for our clients by ensuring the solution accomplishes the result our clients set out to achieve.

Remote Services
Principle Info-Tech’s BPC Remote Services offering is designed to help SAP BPC customers with their BPC administration needs. Whether you need help troubleshooting a single problem or a stop-gap admin solution until you hire internally, our post-implementation support ensures that you get the right amount of help when you need it.

Principle Info-Tech provides SAP Level 1 and 2 help desk support to many clients today. We know how to create SAP support messages and how to trouble shoot your BPC error messages. In addition to helping resolve critical issues, we can help you develop or customize reports and input templates, configure new functionality and/or provide guidance and direction on best practices.

Our BPC Remote Services customers have confidence in knowing that issues beyond the scope of our help desk can be addressed by our senior BPC consultants.
As one of the premier BPC consulting organizations, Principle Info-Tech has worked with BPC for over seven years, building over 100’s of BPC applications. This experience has enabled us to develop a BPC knowledge base and a library of best practice input templates and reports. Our remote services team has access to this extensive knowledge base and library, which is the same information our design architects, application consultants and project managers utilize for their implementation projects.

Rescues
Principle Info-Tech has been called in to “rescue” several companies who are facing challenges during the BPC implementation process.  In these situations, they have experienced a failed BPC implementation due to low user adoption, poor application performance or standard BPC best practices not being utilized.  We work with the client to identify areas that need fixing and show them how they can achieve more value from the solution moving forward.
