Questions
What did the SAP integration architect deliver for the consulting firm?
The architect delivered an integration strategy and architecture framework, 17+ integration solutions across SAP and non-SAP platforms, governance rules, patterns and best practices, plus documentation and reusable integration templates that teams could apply across client engagements.
Which SAP technologies were used?
The work centered on SAP Integration Suite with SAP Cloud Integration and on SAP BTP. It also used SAP API Management and REST APIs, and covered integration with SAP SuccessFactors alongside non-SAP platforms found in client ecosystems.
How did the engagement improve delivery speed?
Standard frameworks, agreed patterns and reusable templates meant teams no longer started each integration from scratch. This made integration strategy and implementation 2x faster, and gave different client engagements a more consistent way of working.
