How does Finpro's AMS approach differ from standard support services?

Standard support is "reactive" (responding only when issues arise); Finpro's AMS approach is "Proactive". Through our processes compliant with global ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) standards, we do not merely resolve errors; we perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA) to identify the origin of the fault and prevent recurrence. Our objective is not simply to close tickets, but to ensure your Business Continuity.

How do your SLA (Service Level Agreement) times and prioritization matrix work?

We do not put your mission-critical business processes at risk. We classify incidents as P1 (Critical - System Down), P2 (High), P3 (Medium), and P4 (Low). For example, for a P1 error that halts production or sales, we guarantee a response time within the strict durations committed in the contract (e.g., 30-60 mins) and ensure continuous communication with our team throughout the resolution process.

Why is choosing AMS more advantageous than building an in-house team?

When building an in-house team, you must manage risks such as sick leave, vacation, and attrition, along with training costs. With the Finpro AMS model, these risks are eliminated. Instead of fixed personnel costs, you gain access to a broad pool of experts across Finance, Logistics, Technical (Basis), and Development (ABAP). This allows you to convert CapEx (Capital Expenditure) into OpEx (Operational Expenditure), thereby reducing your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

Do you only resolve errors, or do you provide "Continuous Service Improvement" (CSI)?

AMS is not merely a place for "firefighting". At Finpro, we regularly scan your system (Health Check), identify performance bottlenecks, and optimize your processes via Change Requests. Through our annual "Innovation Roadmap" report, we proactively present how to prepare your system for emerging SAP technologies.

How does the Transition process work? Is there any risk of knowledge loss?

We do not adopt a "Big Bang" approach when taking over services. Instead, we implement a structured "Knowledge Transfer" phase lasting 2 to 4 weeks. During this period, our consultants learn your current processes, close any documentation gaps, and monitor the system via "shadowing". This ensures that on Day 1 of live support, our team commands your system with the same level of expertise as your internal team.
