Part 1 - Applying Third-Party Oracle and SAP Support to Reduce Costs in Unprecedented Times: Cash is King

This article is the first part of a series that explores the importance of applying third-party oracle and SAP support. 

During these uncertain times of pandemic and business disruption affecting most industries, companies are searching for better ways to manage their reduced cash flow while maintaining appropriate service levels for their customers. With no end in sight, organizations are attempting to handle many of their functions in a decentralized manner, even with some employees working off-site.

Challenges like these require creative thinking and alternative strategies and processes to stay afloat. A competent third-party IT support company can help you save money while keeping your business focused on its objectives during difficult circumstances.

Third-Party Support: A Less Expensive Solution 

According to a 2016 Forbes article , approximately 50% of Oracle's revenue is generated by ongoing support and maintenance for the products it supplies. Over time, it lessens the assistance and eventually stops, recommending that new investments or upgrades are necessary.

Experienced third-party Oracle and SAP support companies can extend the productive life of your still-functioning systems, thereby delaying additional investment.

Many enterprises rely heavily on highly effective SAP or Oracle resource management and technology systems to incorporate their critical business functions. After implementation, those companies provide external services and support. Ongoing service fees can become burdensome in difficult or recessionary times like we are experiencing presently.

Highly qualified third-party support (TPS) companies like thomastech are stepping in to keep organizations running smoothly so they may reallocate much-needed capital for innovation and client-related issues.

Moreover, third-party Oracle and SAP support demands are often handled remotely, when possible, to protect the health of your employees.

The current global pandemic is forcing companies to defer investments and innovation to keep operations running as normal as possible. Since the global economic outlook remains uncertain, your company can quickly lose traction to better-funded competitors, therbey increasing the risk of losing more customers. Outsourcing or re-sourcing some of your current IT operating responsibilities can make a notable difference in your operating cash flow.

Since server and software systems manufacturers usually increase their service costs each year, lower-cost third-party Oracle and SAP support will keep your company competitive and growing.

Transitioning to a Third-Party Oracle and SAP Support Company

Selecting a strong third-party Oracle and SAP support company is not difficult. During the qualifying process, you need to identify your company expectations to ensure a seamless transition. Your prospective third-party IT Oracle and SAP support company will designate specific individuals whose responsibilities will include keeping your Oracle and SAP systems up and running at peak levels and at all times.

The third-party Oracle and SAP support company will propose a transition plan and timeline for the changeover.
