Here are a few useful tips to help you get the best out of your SAP Leonardo project.
Change management needs to start early in the project to ensure collaboration of stakeholders and users and to proactively manage change.
Executive buy-in must be visible, or the project will not have the appropriate priority to meet deadlines.
Project management status and tracking need to focus on timelines and ensure quality.
Lines of business and IT should be represented on all teams, with business users and IT specialists bringing their unique skills, expertise, and knowledge to foster synergy and collaboration on the project. The objective is to avoid the situation where IT alone makes line-of-business decisions and business users alone make technology decisions.
Industry-specific requirements, such as shelf-life restraints or seasonal demands, are identified up front so that you can work together with SAP and your partner to address them in your project.
Together with SAP, a growing number of certified SAP Leonardo partners are developing and delivering industry-leading solutions to help customers innovate faster and with less risk. Follow these tips for selecting and working with your partner:

Get the right balance of off-site (for more technical requirements) and on-site (for more complex business requirements) resources for your project.
Match the partner’s skills and knowledge about SAP software with a clear statement of works.
Evaluate your corporate culture and align the delivery model accordingly.
Provide a clear understanding of deliverables, expectations, and timelines.
