2. Agile Framework and Center of Excellence (CoE) for SAP
ASPL employs a robust, Agile-driven CoE model to streamline its approach, facilitate rapid iteration, and ensure ongoing quality. Key aspects include:
- Tested Agile Framework: This framework breaks down large-scale implementations into manageable sprints, ensuring flexibility and faster time-to-market while allowing adjustments based on client feedback.
