Project Methodologies
Project Methodologies
TGC project methodologies are based on following key areas:
- Planning Phase
- Preparation Phase
- Execution Phase
- Review
This is the most crucial stage and we understand the core expectations and then go forward defining the project goals or expectations of the customer. In this stage, once the delivery requirements are analysed, Service Level Agreements (SLA’s) are defined and then sign-off is achieved with the customer.
This is the first active and pro-active stage and would involve estimating project size and the onsite-offshore distribution of the FTEs (Full-time Equivalents) in the SAP Functional and Technical teams (Basis, NetWeaver integrations support and ABAP categories).
PreparationKnowledge transfer regarding the customer-specific SAP installation and support processes in use. Preparing the Operating Procedure Manual (OPM), based on our study of Business Blueprint and System Configuration documents generated during the implementation.
- Releasing the approved version of OPM as "version 1" for the Execution phase.
- Installing infrastructure and the necessary support software.
The actual support provision process commences during this phase, which comprises of the following activities.
- Providing support as per the agreed SLAs.
- Daily review of call status to ensure that the service level conforms to the SLA.
- Submission of monthly reports on the project status.
Reviewing the following on a periodic basis:
- Level of adherence to SLA metrics
- Observations on system usage
- Discussion of additional training needs, if any
- Review of operating procedures, if necessary
Preparing an action plan to improve the uptime and usage of the system

Our standard project engagement model illustrated below:
Delivery Models
Delivery Models
- Offshore model
- Onsite model
- Hybrid model
- ODC Partnership model
The offshore delivery model entails that all project development, from initial study to testing, is done on TGC premises. This offshore model works well in scenarios where the project goals are well defined and deviation from the same is unlikely. Management and communication during the course of the project is the responsibility of our program managers - the internal clients, who work with tried and tested methodologies to ensure that delivery is as per schedule. TGC’s ODC dedicated project team, works within predefined processes, thereby making model most cost effective and time-efficient.
Onsite modelThe onsite delivery model entails that skilled TGC professionals are deployed on the client's premises. This delivery model is viable only if fluidity is required in a project, if there is need for a specific resource type or if post-deployment support is imperative. From initial consultation to maintenance and support, our representatives are highly qualified and combine excellent business acumen and strong inter-personal skills.
Hybrid modelThis model, a combination of both onsite and offshore, is the best of both worlds, and results in optimized costs and maximized efficiency. The onsite team will directly interact with the clients and will serve as consultants, program managers and developers, depending on project requirements. They will do requirement studies, design and development, while interfacing directly with clients. The offshore team will interact only with the onsite team and will provide additional crucial support, thereby reducing costs and implementation time. The model allows for scalability and has enormous operational benefits.
ODC Partnership modelTGC’s ODC Partnership Model aims at creating relationships with customers who seek long-term services. Our model involves the creation of a dedicated offshore development unit comprising engineers who have or built domain expertise in specific areas. This ensures continuity within the project and iterative use of components while continuously upgrading to market requirements and effectively addressing business critical issues like our clients' time-to-market pressures.
