BackOffice Associates has established a BackOffice Centre of Excellence for SAP HANA as part of the company’s initiative to help clients achieve a single data platform with the SAP HANA platform.
The aim of the Centre is to help its mutual SAP clients achieve fast time to value with business-ready data in their real-time business environments, BackOffice stated in a press release.
The company has also announced expanded consulting services in big data strategy for its clients, and readiness assessments for SAP HANA. Clients can obtain both SAP HANA and the new consulting services directly from BackOffice as a result of its value-added reseller (VAR) and other partner relationships with SAP.
“BackOffice’s strategy for a single data platform on SAP HANA is expected to help organizations make real-time business decisions to obtain competitive advantage,” said Steve Lucas, president of global platform solutions at SAP.
He added that BackOffice has already delivered hundreds of successful migrations to SAP environments, and are looking forward to working with environments running on SAP HANA.
To drive these its latest investments in HANA, BackOffice has appointed Elizabeth Schenker as vice president of the business unit at BackOffice for data effectiveness and real-time analytics with SAP HANA.
Schenker experience in many regulated and big data environments in industries such as public sector, utilities and retail and will be responsible for sales operations for BackOffice solutions and services that are enabled by and ready for SAP HANA.
“I am delighted to join BackOffice as it applies its deep domain knowledge and methodology to SAP HANA and big data projects,” she said.
“There is a growing need to address data quality and information governance at the point of intersection with real-time analytics, and BackOffice is perfectly poised to lead this market.”
