Hi everyone. Great to be back. What a year ahead of us. I wanted to write a short blog post sharing some great knowledge to Project Managers and Project teams who are working on SAP S/4HANA Cloud projects this year. As you know, the SAP Cloud ALM tool is now available to all customers. I want to share with you 4 blogs that summarize perfectly from the basics to a more detailed description of how SAP Activate methodology is in lock step with our SAP Cloud ALM tool. Great read for all project managers and SAP Partners interested in learning more about SAP Cloud ALM for your SAP S/4HANA Cloud projects.

SAP Activate implementation roadmaps continue to serve as the best practices and implementation guidance for 'all things' SAP S/4HANA Cloud and our Intelligent Enterprise solutions. However, I agree it is a lot of information to consume for any one person. What has helped me over the years, mainly out of necessity, I had to package up my content consumption for an overall basic understanding of a topic and if I choose to take a deeper dive the information is there for me to consume if I wanted it. I want to do that for you in this blog by sharing these other blogs published this month, January, 2021 by my colleague Jag, located at SAP Global Headquarters in Walldorf, Germany.
