Helping
IT Managers - and their departments - maximize the investment their company
has made in
their SAP® systems is what Protera is all about.
By providing maintenance and expert advice on keeping SAP systems up
on the latest release levels we help to fully utilize system functionality.

Maintenance
Support packages and binary patches are released continually by SAP.
A regular maintenance schedule must be followed to ensure SAP improvements
are implemented in your systems. Support packages are applied in SAP
with the SPAM and SAINT tools. It’s recommended a quarterly schedule
is followed for all your systems. Maintenance is done on all applicable software
components first on the development, then test, then production systems.
Many types of maintenance is provided.
Adjustments
Adjustments to the newly updated objects are then required to ensure
custom development, configuration, and OSS notes newer than the maintenance
are not removed from the system after application.
It is critical in the adjustment phase, also know as the SPDD and
SPAU phases, that changes are done correctly. Errors may result in system
unavailability as it will not be in a consistent run-time state. Needed
adjustments are made in the development system, then applied to the quality
and production systems.
Testing
Regression testing after application of support packages finds problems
created from the application of changes. For those problems exposed by
testing, follow up with SAP provides solutions before the changes are
made to production.
Results of the maintenance adjustments and testing are communicated
to team members so they are kept aware of the changes being applied.
Expertise
Protera has years of experience with applying maintenance on SAP
systems beginning in 1995 with version 2.2C. We excel in all aspects
of maintenance, discovering and making the necessary adjustments
afterwards, and then completing regression testing.
We’ve successfully implemented maintenance plans for dozens of companies
with some of the largest and most complex architectures in the world and
we’re confident we can do the same for you.
