SAP AMS onboarding & transition

Landscape assessment

The team maps your SAP environment, support setup, integrations, and customizations, then reviews tickets, backlog, and documentation to spot gaps.

Service setup

We define AMS scope, roles, SLAs, and priorities with you. We also work out support coverage, escalation paths, governance, and a transition plan.

Knowledge transfer

Documentation is handed over and reviewed in sessions with your internal team or incumbent provider.

Transition & stabilization

Support moves over in phases, with a controlled go-live and closer-than-usual monitoring. The backlog is worked down before support reaches steady state.

Why choose Innowise as your SAP AMS provider

Innowise delivers SAP AMS services as part of its broader SAP engineering practice, which also covers implementation, integration, migration, and development. This means support decisions are informed by teams with hands-on experience building and expanding SAP systems.

FAQ

Within SAP Application Management Services (AMS), we support the ongoing operation of SAP systems after go-live, including incident resolution, change and release work, Basis administration, and support for users and business processes. We define scope, response times, and resolution times to measure service performance against those targets.

SAP application management services give you access to a full range of SAP skills. You don’t have to hire and retain every specialist in-house. Costs become more predictable under a service agreement, and incident and change processes follow a set structure.

The difference between SAP AMS and traditional SAP support is in their level of structure and accountability. Traditional support is often more reactive, handling requests as they arise. AMS operates within agreed-upon SLAs, with defined roles, escalation paths, and a management process that regularly analyzes performance and recurring issues.

Data security and confidentiality in SAP AMS are managed through role-based access control, segregation of duties, and regular access audits. Innowise follows documented change and access procedures, maintains audit trails, and applies ISO/IEC 27001:2022-aligned practices, supported by SAP GRC and regular security patching.

Yes. We provide 24/7 coverage across time zones. Coverage windows, escalation paths, and staffing are set out in the SLA, so business-hours support, extended coverage, and around-the-clock support are all available options.

SAP AMS costs depend on the scope of support, the number of modules and users covered, the SLA level, service hours, and the pricing model. We determine the cost after an initial assessment of your environment, request volumes, and system complexity.

Yes. Innowise keeps your SAP ECC environment stable while you prepare for an S/4HANA migration, so migration planning doesn't compete with day-to-day operations. This includes functional and technical support, Basis administration, incident management, and migration-readiness work.
