After a tea break, Juzar Badami (Dangote Group Head of SAP Center of Excellence) spoke about the benefits of SAP Enterprise Support services and their collaboration with SAP experts through the SAP Enterprise Support Value Maps, with a concrete example of how this collaboration worked in streamlining their database and custom code prior migrating to SAP S/4HANA.
In this regard, Juzar explained how significantly their database was reduced after they implemented the recommendations of the CQC Data Volume Management (DVM), with the guidance from the SAP Enterprise Support Data Volume Management Value Map team.
Dangote Group is now expecting to go live with a brownfield SAP S/4HANA implementation in the second quarter of 2020.

The SAP Enterprise Support and Cloud Day finalized with a lunch and more networking experiences.
