Why does your organization need SAP AMS?

The scope of SAP AMS projects is dependent on different factors such as the modules involved in the AMS project and the type of AMS project opted out by the organization.

Pay-by-the-ticket: It is a variable-price model where the payment is made based on the total number of hours worked by the AMS annually across the IT tickets received. The compensation in the case of a ticket-based SAP AMS project is based on labor hours, while the cost may be influenced by the module in question. Moreover, another additional factor that may influence the cost is the priority of the AMS project.

In the AMS project, the issue raised by the ticket can be classified based on the business criticality and be bifurcated based on the urgency or priority of the project, as elaborated below,

P1 or Priority 1: Project with a high urgency with a turn-around time between 4-24 hrs.
P2 or Priority 2:Projects with relatively less urgency as compared to P1, with a turn-around time between 24-48 hrs.
P3 or Priority 3: Projects with a mid-urgency having a turn-around time between 48-72 hrs.
P4 or Priority 4: Projects with a low-level urgency with a turnaround time of 3-5 business days.

Fix-Cost: A fixed-cost or fixed-price project is a single-sum contract where the compensation is estimated for the entirety of a year based on the conditions agreed upon at the time of agreement. Here, the service provider is accountable for the completion of a project within the amount agreed upon by the organization. This cost depends upon several factors such as the scope of the AMS project, the SAP modules in question, the technical specifications of the client, and so on.
