5 [ Real Experience. Real Advantage.

6 [ Real Experience. Real Advantage. The Challenge  Go live is just the beginning with SAP  Keeping up with SAP support and enhancement packages is not a trivial thing  Requires a vast amount of testing by IT and the business 6

7 [ Real Experience. Real Advantage. First Warning Sign  2009 SAP HCM upgrade  For this upgrade we manually scour through reams of OSS notes  It was the “Aha” moment that we needed a strategy  There must be an easier way to stay current!  The answer: PANAYA 7

8 [ Real Experience. Real Advantage. The Solution  Panaya Support Package Automation  SaaS solution that automates SAP upgrades, support packages and testing  Shows you what will break  Tells you exactly what to test  Provides comparison and recommendations for code corrections 8

9 [ Real Experience. Real Advantage. The Solution (Continued)  Trial analysis with Panaya was a real eye opener…  In just 2 days, Panaya provided the analysis  Ability to visualized the SPS 16 impacts before implementation  Panaya identified that of 28,000 notes only 450 (16%) really impacted us 9

10 [ Real Experience. Real Advantage. Implementation  First Support Package Project was SPS 16 (2010)  Started in Feb 2010  Typically a project has  With Panaya, we skipped the Pre-Testing 10 Pre-Testing Code Correction Testing Phase

13 [ Real Experience. Real Advantage. Our SAP System Today  We have applied  Three HCM year-end support packs (2009-2011)  One SPS (16 in 2010)  Starting using Panaya testing tool in 2011  In 2011, used Panaya to analyze risk of deferring SPS until 2012 due to business work load  We are in the process of initiating a project to move to SPS 20 (2012) 13
