OVERVIEW
Professional services firms sell their people's time and expertise. Profit depends on keeping people busy on the right work, billing accurately and quickly, and controlling project costs.
SAP S/4HANA supports the full professional services cycle: customer projects, staffing and resource management, time and expense recording, billing by time and materials, fixed fee or milestone, and revenue recognition, with project and client margins in real time.
Service management and subscription billing extend S/4HANA for firms with recurring service contracts.
Webtel delivers S/4HANA using SAP Activate, starting from SAP best practices and industry content. Fit-to-standard workshops show your teams how processes work in the standard system, so changes are limited to what genuinely sets your business apart. That keeps the core clean, makes upgrades easier and shortens the project.
