Follows standard ASAP
HANA Add-On plugs in to a standard ASAP structure
Use ASAP steps where appropriate
HANA Add-On only focuses on HANA specific aspects
Specifically, use all ASAP Project Management activities
Note that purchase of the hardware appliance and standard base configuration is not included and is considered a preliminary step

Combine with other Add-Ons
Business Analytics Focus All Business Analytics ASAP Business Add-Ons follow a very similar structure and similar naming conventions
“Like” elements can be combined together, and especially initial kick-off, discovery and use-case analysis sessions should be performed jointly
Easily build your custom project plans by combining HANA activities with Business Analytics services of similar naming
Assumes “most-detailed” approach, for (modified) RDS or using pre-built content remove selectively elements not needed
ERP, BW on HANA, CRM, etc. Focus Combine within ERP, BW, CRM, etc. projects to add HANA activities
Structure and naming conventions will be different, but in most cases structure should be obvious
Consider carefully which elements you need. For a BW on HANA implementation that simply migrates the database, there shouldn’t be a need for modeling, for instance
Realize that the HANA Add-On assumes that the HANA appliance is configured prior to Project Start (similar to RDS approach)

Business Process Strategic Review
HANA Appliance
The HANA Add-On does not include purchase of the HANA appliance
This is assumed a technical prerequisite and should take place before any Project Team is engaged.
Questions around Production sizing are accommodated in Add-On
Delivery of the appliance requires several weeks lead time
HANA Install & Config
The HANA Add-On does not include the standard self-contained ITTS Install & Configure service of 7-10 days delivered remotely for configuration and patching HANA and SLT setup
Activities associated with Install & Config are assumed to have taken place prior to the start of the Project
Schedule any Install & Config services separate – and ideally in advance, especially Development – prior to Project Start
RDS or Custom Project?
HANA Add-On primarily intended for custom projects
RDS typically has its own implementation methodology
No Blueprint
Fixed Scope
Documented implementation steps
RDS implementations are typically shorter in duration. Verify whether an RDS answers customer needs before proposing a custom project

Final Preparation No HANA-specific elements have been included for Final Preparation. Standard ASAP activities for Final Preparation apply
The Add-On assumes that at the end of Realization all content has been developed, tested and promoted to the Production environment
Final Preparation prepares the customer for Go-Live
Go-Live and Support No HANA-specific elements have been included for Go-Live and Support. Standard ASAP activities for Go-Live and Support apply
Since all content has been developed, tested and promoted to the Production environment, Go-Live and Support should be a formality, and is no different from other SAP projects
At the end of Go-Live and Support the complete solution of HANA and other components (Business Analytics, SAP applications, etc.) is live in Production
