ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Scope enterprise for establishing business case for integrating SAP into business operations | 1.1 Critically analyse current enterprise operations to determine what processes or practices can be realised using SAP to ensure long-term sustainability within organisational guidelines 1.2 Research and critically analyse range of alternative SAP product and services solutions, including risk analysis and relative comparisons to prepare business case for validation with stakeholders 1.3 Produce preliminary results of scoping analysis with recommended priority of SAP solutions that would optimise business sustainability and deliver competitive advantage |
2. Plan and conduct business case for using SAP solutions | 2.1 Evaluate scoping analysis report to produce operating costs estimate projected over appropriate time period for a proposed plan, based on SAP solution for business critical operation 2.2 Conduct cost–benefit analysis to predict potential return on investment (RoI) on economic and environmental sustainability and business benefits derived by proposed SAP solution 2.3 Produce executive summary of proposal for validation with stakeholders, including risk analysis if SAP solution activity is not implemented |
3. Devise management strategies for implementing SAP sustainability solution in business operations | 3.1 Produce management plan to implement sustainability strategies using SAP software solution tools to improve profitability and reduce environmental impacts 3.2 Establish regular reviews using SAP reports to improve key performance indicators (KPIs) on sustainability performance 3.3 Produce energy usage analysis for proposed SAP solution using projected carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions with comparable benchmarks 3.4 Provide detailed feasibility report to support long-term economic and environmental benefits |
Evidence of the ability to:
conduct a scoping exercise and produce an analytical report
conduct an effective cost–benefit analysis using systems applications and products (SAP) solutions to justify return on investment (RoI) on economic and environmental sustainability
produce an accurate executive summary for stakeholder validation
produce a thorough management plan to implement strategies using SAP software solutions
produce an accurate energy usage analysis and feasibility report for long-term sustainability.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
