Tacoma is a mid-sized urban port city in and the county seat of Pierce County, Washington, United States. The city has a population of over 205,000 residents and has a City Manager and a Mayor. The City of Tacoma owns electric, water, and cable utilities and a regional railroad. IT and the SAP ERP system are shared serviced used by the city government, railroad, and the utilities.
The utilities and city government staff have a very low regard for SAP and there are many business needs that are not being adequately met by the SAP solution. Under a previous IT director two strategic studies were commissioned with big six consulting firms and both studies indicated that the SAP implementation was fatally flawed, with an extraordinary number of custom developments and non-standard configurations. Both studies recommended that the implementation be scrapped and a new implementation be initiated. Neither recommendation was followed and the acting director who was tasked with coming up with a strategic plan for the next 5 years.
Sage Group Technologies was retained by the City of Tacoma to assist the City with an SAP Strategic Assessment. The assessment included reviews of the ERP infrastructure, IT operations & administration, and business processes for the City, Railroad, and Utility. The goal of the assessment was to identify opportunities to improve efficiencies and reduce costs. Sage was asked to make recommendations that will provide business value and align with management priorities. A key deliverable from this assessment was a prioritized roadmap of enhancement initiatives that the City can use as input to their planning process.
The scope of this engagement included defining an end-state for all business processes and the related SAP components for all functionality that could be supported by SAP. The end state vision for the infrastructure architecture required to support the end-state vision for SAP was also be included in the scope of this assessment. A roadmap was developed based on the dependencies amongst all the identified initiatives. Each initiative in the roadmap was supported by high level business cases, with estimated cost of implementation, estimated benefits, potential risks, and an estimate of the project duration. The key deliverable from this assessment was a report that addresses all of the following considerations for evaluating and prioritizing the initiatives of the roadmap:
Sage Group Technologies completed the project and after reviewing their findings with the senior management team of the City, Railroad, Utilities, and IT, they were asked to present the results of their work to the City Manager and a special committee composed of the Mayor and several key city council members.
Unlike previous strategic studies, Sage Group was able to show Tacoma that their SAP solution was not fatally flawed, but that it had not been functionally upgraded for 7 years, even though the IT team had performed technical upgrades on a regular basis.
The acting director of IT was given the job on a permanent basis, the City Manager, and the City’s Technology Committee agreed to support and fund the solution provided by the Sage Group Technologies Team.
The City, Railroad, and Utility staffs were energized by the decision to perform functional upgrades that would meet their business imperatives.
Sage Group Technologies has since been given follow-up projects for business enhancements for fleet maintenance, HR, and Finance. We have also provided Tacoma with staff augmentation and SAP basis, development, and infrastructure support.

Constellation Healthcare Technologies has adopted a business development strategy that combines organic growth with an aggressive acquisition initiative. CHT is targeting small to midsized companies with a primary focus on billing for the healthcare industry.
The Healthcare Industry is experiencing a great deal of downward pressure on physician revenues. This provides both an opportunity for billing companies to acquire additional clients, while at the same time forcing the billing companies to offer their services at a lower rate. This tumultuous environment forces many small and midsized companies to become available for outside acquisition; howevermany of these companies lack the technology and staffing to flourish. CHT required a partner to help them assess the value and potential for EBITDA growth of potential acquisitions. They also required a partner with the business process and technology experience to be able to develop transition plans to ensure that the new acquisitions could be seamlessly and efficiently integrated into their existing organization by leveraging the synergies, best practices, and technologies of both companies.
Sage Group was engaged to manage the entire due diligence process and to provide the process and technology diligence. We coordinated the Due Diligence project using CHT’s legal and external accounting teams and our own industry and technology experts.

CHT has been growing rapidly and Sage Group has provided support for all 12 of their acquisition due diligence initiative. We have also planned and assisted with the consolidation of the 5 completed acquisitions and are actively assisting with diligence efforts which are still underway.
For all of these due diligence initiatives our teams of experts visit every location with billing operations. The teams interview the leadership team at each location, evaluate their operational processes, their existing technology applications, and infrastructure.

Constellation New York Power Authority (NYPA) is America’s largest state-owned power organization. NYPA provides lowest-cost electricity in New York State, operating 18 generating facilities and more than 1,400 circuit-miles of transmission lines.
NYPA was an early adopter of SAP and had not yet implemented SAP’s BW solution which led to many reporting deficiencies and management frustration due to the lack of analytical and decision support capabilities. Management realized that a robust Business Intelligence solution to provide improved access to information and foster more informed decision-making was imperative to continued business success. Although management understood the need for a BI solution, they did not have internal resources with the necessary skills to gather the requirements necessary to design a solution, nor did they have the skills and experience necessary to design and architect the solution.

Sage Group’s senior utility industry business consultants developed and facilitated workshops for each functional area. The workshops provided the executive and their senior managers an opportunity to discuss all aspects of their business and describe the reporting, analytics, and decision support functionality required for their business needs. Sage consultants guided the discussions to ensure that the executives were considering all of their requirements based on current practices and industry best practices that they may wish to implement in the future.
Based on the results of the executive workshops, Sage Group’s data warehouse technical experts architected a corporate wide data warehouse design to meet the defined requirements and the two objectives of the initiative, which are defined below.
1.To develop a corporate wide data warehouse architecture that provides improved access to information, fostering more informed decision making at the New York Power Authority.

The Company was established in 1965 as a joint venture between Cutler-Hammer, USA, and a consortium of partners from India.

BCH electric limited was one of the first mid-size companies to implement SAP in India.BCH has experienced explosive growth in the 6 years, with revenue increasing by over 330% in that time. Although BCH implemented SAP in 2001 management noticed that over time SAP utilization has gone down and their staff reverted to the traditional ways of working. The SAP system was simply being used for a system of record and was not delivering the automation and process efficiencies envisioned by management at the time of the SAP implementation. The challenge is to identify why the staff is not using the system to improve productivity and create an action plan to revive overall SAPutilization and optimize the business processes.
BCH Electric selected Sage Group to audit the SAP system and business process. The primary focus of the audit was the planning process. Sage Group was asked to target the Sales, Demand Forecasting, Materials Requirements Planning, and Production processes and associated SAP functionality during the audit. A key deliverable of the audit was a prioritized action plan that would result in productivity improvement and cost reductions due to more efficient manufacturing and procurement schedules.

BCH was extremely pleased with the audit recommendations. The recommendations clearly identified the reasons for the failure of the organization to embrace the system and provided a detailed roadmap for enhancing processes and re-configuring SAP to ensure that the process and the system were completely synchronized and the expected productivity gains would be realized. Because of the audit, BCH Electric Limited, awarded a contract to Sage Group to implement the roadmap.

OrionHealthCorp (Orion) is determined to improve operating margins in a very competitive environment, which is facing strong pressure from both private and public payers to reduce costs. Orion management believes that automation and process optimization are the best means to meeting their bottom line improvement objective. The challenge for Orion is to eliminate the heavily manual process of communicating with physicians and helping them submit their claims correctly the first time, or to correct any claims that require corrections or additional information.
Orion engaged Sage Group to design, manage, and implement a cloud based web portal and workflow system to streamline and automate their billing processes. The portal provides physicians with a quick and easy way to enter and correct claims, review the status of their claims, and to see their payment postings. The solution requires a tight integration of the workflow system, Orion’s multiple billing systems and Orion’s Business Intelligence system.
The scope of the initiative was very complex since every component of the system had to be HIPAA compliant, provide very robust security to ensure patient, physician, and practice level security, provide intrusion detection, and meet all the functional requirements listed below.
Sage Group’s Health Care Industry consultants and technical teams worked closely with the Orion management team and their billing technology team to successfully design, build, and implement Orion’s industry leading cloud based portal for medical billing.

Sage Group was also responsible for the upgrade of Imagine to the latest release and the design, development, testing, and implementation of all the necessary interfaces with client practice management systems. Sage Group had to ensure that HIPAA guidelines and regulations were followed on every task and that all data migration operations were HIPPA compliant. Sage Group also provided the project manager for the entire initiative including the actual transition of clients to Imagine.
Orion is very pleased that they were able to eliminate an obsolete billing platform and replace it with a platform that they were already using in another business unit. The project not only reduced the number of billing platforms, it also allowed Orion to consolidate two data centers. The CFO of Orion has credited Sage Group with developing and implementing the innovative solution which helped to reduce IT support costs and improve profitability, while at the same time greatly reducing the risk of system failure.
