To cater for the increasing number of mission-critical applications along with integration needs, combined with the introduction of new technology, Run SAP and End-to-end Solution Operations represents a dynamic shift from the existing software focused to a new end-to-end solution orientated support and operations model in order to manage innovation and integration, risk and TCO.
