Leaders are under pressure to deliver innovation at a rapid pace to support the needs of the business. When it comes to delivering change in SAP environments, teams frequently face project bottlenecks and delays. The challenge is keeping the current system and the upgraded system in sync. How do you do this? One approach is to do it manually with developers. While there are benefits to this approach the risk of disruption might outweigh them. Is there a better way?
