Page 15
Project Preparation
During the Project Preparation phase the high-level project scope will be confirmed. The
combined Capgemini and <client> project team will kick-off the project and conduct project team
training on templates, methods, and tools. Capgemini will assist in reviewing and finalizing the
Instance strategy.
Description of Project Preparation Deliverables:
Project Governance Plan (PGP) - The Project Governance Plan will detail project-specific
governance processes that may be unique from the overall Program Governance Plan. The
PGP, together with the Capgemini SOW defines the baseline for the project against which both
Capgemini and <client> will operate for the duration of the project. The PGP also provides for a
common understanding of roles and responsibilities between project participants, helps manage
expectations, and becomes the baseline against which changes and deviations to process or
product are identified and managed.
Level 1 and 2 Project Plan A level 1 project plan in ppt (GANTT) and a level 2 MS project
plan that defines the activities and tasks to be carried out by Capgemini and <client> during the
project.
Issue/Change Control Process - Formal process for managing change requests. The project
scope definition along with the structured change control process will assist program/project
management in assessing the impacts of potential scope changes with respect to the overall
project cost, schedule, and risk. The change control process will detail the escalation and
approval procedures to be used in evaluating and processing all change requests. The
objectives of change control are to preserve the integrity of the project charter, to provide a
mechanism for handling change requests, and to provide a means for retaining historical
change information.
Steering Committee Meeting Schedule Schedule of Project Steering Committee meetings
at regular intervals to review project progress, mediate any unresolved issues extending beyond
the scope of the project teams control, and approve project Deliverables.
Status Reporting Process Defines schedule and governance process for tracking and
communication of project progress to appropriate groups through regular reports and
assessments. This refers not only to vertical (up the ranks) communication, but also across
process teams and functional areas due to the need for integration between the project teams.
This will be defined in the Project Governance Plan.
Team On-boarding material - Provides key information and instructions to help transition new
project team members onto the project. It includes an overview of the project, any background
information, project vision, scope, logistics, and key contacts.
Page 16
High Level Functional Specification for RICEF Developed jointly by Capgemini and
<client> and consists of documentation of development requirements to mitigate a functionality
gap.
Security Strategy - Covers the business, functional and technical strategy related to the future
state design and ongoing support of security for the Manufacturing project. It also consists of
documentation outlining the security requirements of user access to SAP in the environments of
Development, Testing, Pre-Production, and Production (including post implementation support).
Data Migration Strategy Developed jointly by Capgemini and <client>. The strategy outlines
the methods and tools by data object. The strategy outlines the data validation and loading
procedures.

Assumption / Constraint
1.
Project
Management
The <client> Project managers will be available for a daily checkpoint meeting if
required by Capgemini. Due to time frame and the complex nature of the work,
<client> and Capgemini will work to control scope in order to keep this Project within
the agreed upon timeframe.
2.
Project
Management
<client> will be responsible for procuring and coordinating the necessary resources
from 3rd party vendors.
3.
Schedule
Capgemini is not responsible for missed dependent Deliverables from other program
tracks or parties. Delays to the Project caused by SAP product defects or other
legacy system dependencies will be subjected to the formal Change Order process
to secure additional funding for time extensions.
4.
Schedule
Any changes to the terms of the SOW, including but not limited to the assumptions,
approach, or Deliverables given throughout this document may require a change
order.
5.
Schedule
6.
Schedule
Any changes or delays to the project schedule resulting from business user adoption,
training, communication, or other organizational change management issues outside
of the control of the Capgemini project team may result in a change order.
7.
Scope
8.
Scope
The Blueprint will define the shape and size of the future state design. Detailed
Functional Design and Technical Design will be done early in the Realization Phase.
The full configuration of the system will take place in the Realization phase of this
Project. The end of the Blueprint phase will include a reappraisal of the original
Project estimates, approach and timeline. Any changes in scope will be evaluated
and subject to the Change Order process.
9.
Scope
Our estimates and fees assume that the Project team will leverage the existing
<client> Business Case, Current State documentation and SAP fit analysis, and that
these documents are comprehensive and up to date. Any additional current state
documentation developed by the Project team will be at a high level and focused on
only those areas where <client>s processes are unique.
10. Scope
Our estimates for Current State Process Modeling assume that all documentation
(BPP, business maps, process flows, functional, technical specification, test scripts
etc.) of the as-is processes will be made available to Capgemini at Project start. The
assumption is made that the information in this documentation is accurate and any
changes over the life of the Project (other than to add additional information as the
details of the Project are understood) will be communicated as they are known. If the
change is significant, or impacts completed Deliverables or work in progress, this
may result in a change order. It is also expected that this current state processes
and requirements will need to be revised to correspond with the SAP software
package and that changes will be made in the requirements set-forth in the current
state documentation to correspond with the base functionality provided in SAP.
Current business process maps are out of scope.

11. Scope
The complete list of Deliverables that Capgemini will coordinate is specified in the
SOW. Any Deliverables not specified in this SOW are out-of-scope.
12. Scope
The complete list of roles and responsibilities for Capgemini is given in the SOW.
Any other roles and responsibilities not specified in the SOW are out-of-scope.
13. Scope
14. Scope
American English will be supported as the primary language for the system. Support
for any other language is not included in the estimate and will result in additional
development and testing hours not currently included in the estimate. The only
exception to this is where outputs are required to be in local language to meet
statutory and regulatory requirements. In such cases, <client> will be responsible for
identifying these requirements and the translation and validation activities.
15. Scope
ECC 6.0 EP6 will be used as part of this Project. Should a different release be
required after the start of the Project, a Change Order and potential change in
schedule will be required to implement that revised version of the application.
16. Scope
Our approach and price assumes that the software package version selected by
<client> works as described by SAP and is a stable product that does not include
either functional or performance defects. The assumption is made that <client> will
contract with SAP for the resolution of functional or performance defects that are not
caused by Capgeminis configuration activities. Any delays associated with
functional or performance defects in the SAP system are outside of the scope of the
estimates provided.
17. Scope
The Project scope does not include modifications to <client>s legacy systems
resulting from changes associated with the SAP Implementation. All design,
development and testing of changes to <client>s legacy systems will be <client>s
responsibility and will be completed as indicated by the Project timeline.
18. Scope
Standard SAP reports and ad-hoc queries will be used when available instead of
creating custom reports.

reasonable network and online response times and batch compile and run
times/throughput. <client> will institute regular "back-up" procedures to prevent the
loss of data throughout the life of the Project.
25. Technical
Environments
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) environment will be available for remote access to
<client> facilities, and to support remote Project working as required. The cost of this
network connection is included in the separate Capgemini Operations Management
SOW and as such is not included in this SOW. If the Operations Management SOW
is not in effect at the time this project starts, then the VPN costs would be added to
this project SOW via the change order process defined in the Master Services
Agreement.

42. Staffing
Capgemini will utilize the 3-4-5 schedule for out-of-town resources assigned to the
Project. This plan includes: five (5) days assigned to the Project; a minimum of four
(4) workdays on site; and if the schedule allows in Capgeminis discretion, a virtual
day on Monday or Friday in which the out-of-town team members are devoted to
completing <client> Project work from their home office location(s). From time to
time and as necessary, Capgemini will work 5 days a week at <client>s office.
Capgeminis adherence to this schedule shall not relieve Capgemini of its obligations
to meet deadlines or Deliverables.
43. Staffing
<client> core team members will be available to review and approve project
communications and training materials, as needed
44. Staffing
45. Pricing
Training-related expenses for <client> Super Users and End-Users, including but not

3. DELIVERY APPROACH
3.1 Phases, Stages, Activities
The <client> Project will be implemented using the Project Phases, Stages, and Activities as
defined within the iSAP methodology.
DELIVER is Capgeminis Global Methods Environment. We will use DELIVER for the SAP
projects including the <client> Project. This methodology is supplemented by approaches,
techniques, and hints drawn from experienced Capgemini SAP practitioners.
The Project Preparation phase provides initial planning and preparation for the Pegasus project. iSAP defines activities
for this phase to provide the infrastructure, processes, and procedures needed to allow the teams to move forward in
an integrated manner. Key Objectives:
Plan and conduct the project kick-off to train the joint project team
Blueprint
The objective of Blueprint is to design and document the Solution to the detailed level required to Configure the system
and define the technical infrastructure. iSAP templates and techniques are designed for more accurate,
comprehensive definition of the Solution Blueprint. The team must also prepare for the Realization Build (next) phase.
Realization Build
This phase is dedicated to building and testing the individual components of the Solution. iSAP defines configuration
as proceeding logically (one work package) in the order of the End to End business processes: Organization
Structures, Master Data, and Business Processes. The team also prepares for the next phase (Realization Test),
including preparing the detailed plans and schedules and preparing the Testing infrastructure and prerequisites. Data
Migration is launched during this phase, including a first test load.
Realization Test
Realization Test centers on testing the end to end business processes as business scenarios and variations of those
scenarios. Data Migration work must complete by the end of this phase. Cut-over plans must be completed in
preparation for the next phase. iSAP stresses the re-use of standard Integration Testing strategies and Test Case
Page 28
templates. The work is accelerated by the SAP Value Stream sessions (Project Preparation phase) where the End to
End processes are reviewed and different scenarios and variations are initially catalogued.
Final Preparation
and Go-Live
All of the work of the iSAP Solution and enabling streams come together to plan, practice and execute the production
cut-over. The project team works closely with the business to prepare users, systems, processes and sites and proves
out the approach in one or more Dry Run rehearsals of the production cut-over. iSAP templates allow the team to
focus on preparing the business rather than creating templates.
Support
This support phase is a pre-determined (usually by contract) period of time after the production go-live, when the
system is intensely supported by the project team. Usually this period extends through the first monthly financial
close after the go-live. iSAP provides Hypercare strategy and schedule templates as well as process monitoring
templates and batch job.
Business Process is the focal point of the iSAP method. This stream focuses on identifying how people and systems work
together to:
facilitate the communication of the Solution strategy throughout the multiple layers of the
organization.
Development
The Development stream includes all the development, testing and documentation of the software required for the SAP
implementation project. This includes ABAP, portal, Java, Middleware, etc areas. iSAP requires a critical path approach to
sequencing Development work. The Development team must understand the critical path work, typically prioritizing go-live critical
development (e.g. Interfaces).
Data Management
This stream supports activities related to the management of data in the new SAP systems from the definition to the migration process
into the SAP system. The primary objective is to ensure the data needed by the users is included in the new system in an accurate
and usable manner. Like the Development stream, iSAP stresses a critical path approach to defining and managing the Data work.
Technical
Infrastructure
Within the Technical Infrastructure stream, the team focuses on designing, implementing and maintaining the technical infrastructure
of the SAP based solution. This scope includes Development, Quality Assurance, and Production instanced of the SAP platforms.
This also includes set up of the systems, networks, administration and other infrastructure-related activities. iSAP does not provide
specifc templates other than stressing the simple approach of managing the Technical Infrastructure milestones and not the detailed
activities.
Organization Change
Management
The primary objective of the Organizational Change Management stream is to adequately prepare people, process and technology for
the business transformation. It requires early identification of process and organizational improvement opportunities within the context
of the ERP system, continuous communication across the organization, and readily available training materials. iSAP stresses the
early identification and mobilization of the Change Leader Network to enable the OCM activities.
Project Management
This stream focuses on delivery governance up activities which are specific to the SAP implementation project; and occur during
Project Preparation phase. The primary objective is to prepare the team to execute the project using established standards and
procedures. iSAP provides Project Management with a standardized Project Plan approach supported by Lean Visual Management
tools.

Are each aware of the repository of existing information and the purpose of each of
those Deliverables
Understand the project plan and their specific responsibilities to deliver to the schedule
Understand the roles and responsibilities of the other team leads and members, so that
they are aware of who to involve as questions arise
The Project Preparation Phase comprises the following main activities:
Team lead on-boarding
Development of a detailed project plan, with clear milestones along with processes for
measuring performance versus plan and resolving deviations from the plan. This will
include identification of project team resources.
Identifying <client> business participation required for workshops and informing the
business leadership of key dates
Establish the project governance program
Implement the project tools and infrastructure. Create project directories. Establish
project templates/standards for minutes, agendas, team communications, etc.
Communicate with related initiatives. Establish communication with all related initiatives
and work streams (e.g. Other projects within <client>, SAP Infrastructure set up)
The project team will participate in the 1-2 day Project RapidStart session. This
session will get the combined <client>/Capgemini team grounded in the project
processes and procedures such as status reporting, time collection, issue management,
risk management, and scope control.
Draft questionnaires for information gathering for Blueprint Sessions
Identification of <client> stakeholders and creation of a targeted change management
communications plan
Set up of sandbox and development SAP environment for teams use during blueprinting
and beyond to build the <client> system and allow the system to be shown during
blueprinting, as needed. The sandbox will be pre-loaded with the EnergyPath Solution.
These tasks will be the responsibility of <client>s hosting provider.
Prepare for Blueprint Phase kick-off. This involves both preparing for the blueprint kickoff meeting, scheduling attendees and doing a first pass at the timing of design
workshops
Blueprint Phase
The Blueprint Phase will commence with a one day team kick-off meeting where the full team,
including all significant part-time team members, will be introduced to the scope, timeline,
responsibilities, team organization, tools, methods, standards and expectations as they come
on board.
It is recommended that the <client> team leads take a very active part in this session, to
establish themselves in their positions and to take ownership of their area from the start
The draft design workshop schedule will also be reviewed and the schedule and
attendees adjusted to take into account other commitments.
The team leads will commence preliminary design, covering major scope items and
establishing the global settings/decisions within SAP which set the constraints around
which the business and the team will operate.

The majority of Blueprint Phase will be spent in Rapid Design workshops, working
initially as a full team to absorb the major decision parameters which will affect each
team (<client> organizational structure, Chart of Accounts etc.).
Generally, the next set of workshops are team specific, with a focus on scope by
functional area.
As progress is made on functional design, the teams will organize multi-functional
team discussions to discuss integration points. These discussions will culminate to
structured walk through of each end to end process.
Sub-activities, within the Rapid Design Workshops
Within the design workshops, the teams will confirm <client>s detailed requirement
are addressed by SAP configuration options, revising business process workflows
and documentation (Business Requirement Documentation-BRDs) (for team design
use and later use during training); agreeing data mapping from existing systems and
also for data to be gathered for project go-live.
Towards the end of the Blueprint Phase, the design workshops may be expanded to
involve the full team and also the future trainers and other key individuals identified
as part of the change management stakeholder analysis. These review workshops
would be decided on a case by case basis, with the team leads working with the
project management and change management teams
Each of the design workshops will comprise a mixture of process flow reviews,
process discussion and demonstrations of the configured EnergyPath, where
appropriate. To facilitate communication across the organizations stakeholders, it is
proposed that design documentation is updated at each session or within one day, so
its ready for review by a wider audience within two days, in general. This is assuming
that the design schedule has suitable gaps built in to allow time to document between
other activities.
The objective for each of these workshops is the development of best practices
across <client>, leading to standardization based on SAP.
During the initial workshops Capgemini recommends that an early assessment of team
member abilities and role-effectiveness is carried out, along with a review of the alignment
within the organization.
Page 31
3.2 Deliverables
During each phase of the Project there are a number of key deliverables that are expected to be
created. Capgemini will monitor the preparation and presentation of these deliverables to
<client> . Capgemini will provide <client> with status reports (weekly) articulating the progress
towards the completion of the deliverables and activities.
Acceptance and sign-off of all major deliverables will be performed by the <client> Project
Manager in conjunction with a gate review process. The <client> Project Manager has sole
authority to accept or reject on <client>s behalf.
In the event acceptance is not granted, the Riara Project Manager will clearly define in
writing the deficiency(ies) as it relates to not materially meeting the mutually agreed upon
criteria applicable to that deliverable along with any associated specifications. Acceptance
is expected upon the identified deficiencies being re-reviewed and addressed and limited to
the initial markups only.
The operational approach and decision-making used in the gate review acceptance process
and by the Project Manager will be consistently applied to deliverable acceptance regardless
of the party accountable or responsible for the deliverable i.e. completion of deliverables
for which <client> is responsible will follow the same processes and standards applied to
Capgemini deliverables.
All deliverables submitted to the <client> Project Manager will generally be reviewed for
approval within an appropriate amount of time, generally to be less than 3-5 days.
For most deliverables, with exception of the high volume process / configuration/
development deliverables, the deliverable will be submitted for gate review on the date it is
scheduled for completion (usually a Friday), and reviewed for acceptance the following
Wednesday..
The Gate Review Team will review the submitted Gate Review Executive Summary
document, as well as the underlying deliverable materials as needed, in preparation
for the Gate Review meeting.
Page 32
The Gate Review meeting will focus on exceptions or questions related to the
deliverables, and the <client> Project Manager will determine if the deliverable is
accepted, is accepted with conditions or is rejected.
If a Work Product is accepted with conditions, then the conditions will be reviewed
in the next gate review, or the next mutually agreed gate review
The Capgemini PMO Analyst will publish minutes from the Gate Review,
summarizing the Gate Review outcomes, including any specific conditions to be
addressed before finalizing a deliverable, or actions required to be taken in order to
resubmit for approval after the deliverable was rejected.
Deliverables approved with conditions are considered completed on time.
Standards and expectations for deliverables will be defined either before the work
begins or at project initiation and may be refined before the applicable phase of work
begins.
The general acceptance approach and criteria applied to other deliverables will follow common
SAP ASAP standards for completeness and detail, and as outlined in templates or examples
reviewed and mutually approved by <client> and Capgemini before the work is performed.
Deliverables will be stored in one of two locations:
3.4 Installation
SAP Project Landscape
Installation of the systems landscape to support a multi SAP project environment is the
responsibility of <client>. The Technology and Architecture function of the PMO will assist in
providing advice on the landscape strategy.
The current version of the Landscape Strategy is housed on the PMO T-Room:
Key to the landscape strategy is the use of parallel project environments structured around
planned releases of functionality into production. The determination of which environment a
project will be developed in (Production support (N), Project Landscape (N+1), Project
Landscape (N+2) etc) is the joint responsibility of the <client> Infrastructure Team, PMO
Architecture & Technology function and the Project Management team. This decision will be
based on factors including the:
Page 33
PMO Tools:
The PMO toolset is defined in the <client> Program Governance Plan.
Clarity and T-Room capabilities will be provided via Capgemini. MS Project will be provided by
<client> for <client> IT partners and Capgemini for Capgemini personnel. Solution Manager will
be provided by <client>. Overall maintenance of this toolset will be coordinated by the PMO
and the <client> IT Infrastructure group.

Definition
A risk is a potential issue that can have a materially adverse impact on the project, one of its
work streams or the company as a whole. Typically, risks are factors that potentially may occur
at some date in the future, the occurrence of which may result in an issue.
The goal of risk management is to identify risks, assess the severity of their impact, determine
the probability of occurrence, formulate mitigation plans prevent occurrence, and prepare
contingency plans to deal with the impact if the risk eventually occurs.
5.1.2 Risk
Classification
In order to efficiently utilize available resources, the project will classify risks and issues along
the following dimensions:
Resolution Deadlines
Risks will be assigned a priority (and potentially re-assigned a new priority) as follows:
High Could prevent a team from meeting deadlines/completion
Medium Could delay a team
Low - Needs to be resolved (by requested date)
Rick resolution will start within the following period:
High - Same day
Medium - 3 days
Low - No set timing

5.2.1 Issue
Definition
An issue is an existing matter that if not resolved may threaten the success of, or impede the
progress of the Project, Project or one of its work streams i.e., causes a delay, changes the
direction, impairs the solution, hinders the quality, alters the model or deliverable content, or
potentially increases implementation costs.
5.2.2 Issue
Priority
Issues will be assigned a priority (and potentially re-assigned a new priority) as follows:
Normal (Medium) Impacts Project Teams timeline but does not have an impact
on the Key Milestones of the Project
5.2.3 Issue

How does this change introduce, modify or mitigate risks to the project?
Can the change be accommodated with the existing project resources and timelines?
Can the change be accommodated within the current deliverable schedule if additional
resources are added? How will this affect the budget?
Will the change require additional resources and an extension of the deliverable
schedule? How will this affect the budget?
Maintaining the required documentation and obtaining the appropriate approvals for the change
control process is just as critical as implementing the change. A new change request must be
logged in the Change Request Log on Sharepoint and the Change Request Form attached to
the log entry.
