Introductions
Objectives of this Workshop:
- Recap of the deployment approach and project plan.
- Provide an overview of rollout order decision-making
framework.
- Alignment on pilot site.

Objectives of the Next Deployment Workshop:


- Cover off any open points from previous workshop.
- Alignment on subsequent site rollout order

- The outcomes of these workshops will form the basis of the


Deployment Strategy.
• During FTS workshops you will be part of discussions that pertain to potential changes or impacts to functions, roles and responsibilities across the
business
• It is important to avoid creating confusion in your teams by discussing sensitive project information that may impact some business areas
• To ensure this doesn’t occur, we ask that you maintain confidentiality throughout the Program design phase workshops
• In addition, you as BPRs need to manage this closely with your SME network

Project Plan

Hybrid approach:
Phased Roll-Out

Hybrid approach that will deploy The Phased Roll-


mature functionality first whilst Out approach
building a template that will
deploy to the core product forms the basis of
groups or geographies in a our project plan
phased manner. Each template
will use a representative pilot to
deploy to first.

+ Lower risk
+ Less business disruption
+ Higher roll-out flexibility
+ Faster speed to benefit
- Longer roll out length
- Higher overall cost
- High regret integration / interim
procedures

• Two S/4HANA releases:


• R1: Foundation S/4HANA (Common and Core Elements)
• R2: Foundation Enrichment
• Two SuccessFactors Releases:
• Early release: Employee Central (EC), Recruitment (RCM), Recruitment Marketing (RMK), Onboarding (ONB), and Learning (LMS)
• Subsequent release: Performance (PMGM), Succession (SUCC/CDP) and Compensation (COMP)
• Deployments will be managed as “Waves”. A Wave consists of one or more sites and supporting functions that will be managed and implemented together.

Rollout Sequence –
Decision Making
Framework
Influencing Factors
The rollout order will be determined based on several considerations. The final order should aim to sequence sites in order to balance
maximizing business impact and minimizing risks.

• Having a representative E2E pilot Site


• Number of and type of operations at a site (feedmills, primary processing, further processing, warehouse/ coldstore, head office)
• Impact of the pilot site to overall business (risk vs benefits)
• User impact and scale of impact at a site
• Maturity of site operations & organisational preparedness
• Blackout periods
• Seasonality / Business Cycles / Fiscal Year
• Parallel business initiatives (e.g. Building a new DC) / Organisational dependencies
• Interdependencies between sites
• Geographic spread
• Spacing out of complexity

Hands up/down: Got a question/comment? Raise your hand. Look for the “hand” icon in the top
right corner. And don’t forget to put it down when you’re done

Stay on mute: Keep mic muted unless you are speaking

Video “ON” when speaking: If you are in a room with others, switch seats or pass the laptop
around so the speaker is on the screen

Use chat function to post a question : There will be logical pauses during the session to address
your questions / comments

Switch between speaker and slides: Can’t see the speaker or slides, or vice versa? Simply click on
the video/screen you want to focus on from the gallery along the bottom (or side for some people).
