Qubittron’s SAP Application Management Services (AMS) offer a modern, efficient support model for SAP ERP users. Compared to traditional SAP consulting, Qubittron’s approach is more cost-effective, gives you access to certified high-quality talent, and provides comprehensive support in one bundle. Below we explore these three key benefits and why this model is the best way forward for businesses running SAP ERP.


1. Cost-Effectiveness with a Flexible “Pool of Hours” Model

Cost-Effectiveness with a Flexible “Pool of Hours” Model

Traditional SAP consulting often involves high hourly rates or full-time engagements, which means you might pay for 40 hours a week even when demand is low. Qubittron’s flexible pool-of-hours pricing model lets you purchase a block of support hours and use them as needed, avoiding wasted spend on idle time. In this model, a flat monthly fee includes a predetermined pool of hours that can cover a wide range of maintenance and support activities​. This translates to a more predictable IT budget and better value for every dollar spent.


  • Pay for Use, Not Idle Time: Instead of retaining costly consultants on standby, hours are allocated only when support is required, making support costs more economical​. Businesses avoid overspending on underutilized resources.


  • Lower Overhead: By tapping into Qubittron’s support pool, companies save on hiring or training in-house SAP experts. Outsourcing AMS reduces overhead costs associated with recruiting and retaining specialized staff​.


  • Flexible Scaling: If you need extra help (e.g. during a project or quarter-end), the model can flex to provide additional hours without long-term commitments. This flexibility is difficult to achieve with traditional fixed consulting contracts and ensures you only pay for the support you actually utilize​.


Overall, Qubittron’s cost model optimizes support spending. It delivers the expertise you need on-demand, while keeping costs in check by eliminating the need for continuous full-time consulting presence. This scalable, pay-as-you-need approach aligns support costs with business needs, a clear financial advantage over traditional consulting agreements.


2. Access to Certified, High-Quality SAP Talent (Vetted for Excellence)

Access to Certified, High-Quality SAP Talent

Another major benefit is the quality of talent Qubittron provides. All Qubittron consultants are SAP-certified professionals, meaning they have proven expertise in SAP’s solutions and best practices. Working with certified consultants ensures you’re getting knowledgeable advisors who can fully leverage your SAP system and drive maximum value from it​. Moreover, Qubittron emphasizes vetting its team for both technical skill and communication ability, so you work with consultants who are not only experts but also effective collaborators.


  • SAP-Certified Experts: Qubittron’s consultants carry official SAP certifications, guaranteeing the required knowledge and skills to support and optimize your system. Certified consultants help you utilize SAP to its fullest potential and achieve better business outcomes​. In contrast, traditional consulting teams may mix skill levels, and you risk getting junior or less specialized staff.


  • Thoroughly Vetted Professionals: Qubittron ensures every consultant is top-notch and thoroughly vetted for quality​. This vetting process means consultants have strong track records and problem-solving abilities. It also often includes assessing soft skills – they can communicate complex SAP concepts in simple terms and align with your business culture. Traditional consulting firms might rotate different people onto your project, whereas Qubittron commits high-quality, consistent talent.


  • Strong Communication & Domain Knowledge: By selecting experienced SAP specialists (often with industry-specific experience), Qubittron’s team can bridge the gap between technology and business needs. They not only speak SAP’s language, but can explain solutions clearly to your stakeholders and work seamlessly with your internal team. This leads to faster issue resolution and smoother implementations, whereas less-communicative consultants can slow down projects.


Working with Qubittron’s certified and vetted consultants means you get reliable expertise on demand. You avoid the trial-and-error that can come with unproven contractors. Instead, you have seasoned professionals who follow SAP best practices and communicate effectively. This high-quality talent pool improves support efficiency and builds trust that your SAP environment is in capable hands​.


3. Comprehensive AMS Services in One Bundled Package

Comprehensive AMS Services in One Bundled Package

Qubittron’s AMS offering is truly end-to-end, covering all the essential support needs of an SAP ERP environment in one package. This comprehensive service includes SAP incident management, system monitoring, enhancement support, reporting support, and even SAP UI5 development (modern SAP Fiori app development). Having this full suite under one roof is a game-changer for service efficiency compared to traditional consulting, where you might need separate contracts or teams to handle different tasks. Qubittron’s team proactively monitors your systems, rapidly resolves issues, and continuously improves your SAP setup – providing a one-stop solution for keeping your SAP ERP running at peak performance​.


  • End-to-End Support: Qubittron handles everything from routine fixes to complex developments. The AMS team will monitor system health, respond to and resolve incidents, perform regular maintenance, and implement enhancements or new features as needed​. Traditional consulting often has a narrower scope (e.g., only project-based work or only break-fix support), requiring you to juggle multiple vendors for different needs. With Qubittron, one partner covers “all areas of your SAP landscape” with 24/7 availability if required​.


  • Continuous Improvement (Not Just Break-Fix): Beyond reactive support, the AMS package includes improvement initiatives like enhancement requests, report development, and UI5 app development. This means the service doesn’t just maintain the status quo – it actively makes your SAP system better over time. For example, if users need a new report or a better user interface, Qubittron’s team can develop it as part of the ongoing support. Traditional consultants might treat these as separate mini-projects (with extra cost), whereas Qubittron’s AMS bundles it all, accelerating delivery of new capabilities.


  • Reduced Downtime & Higher Efficiency: Because Qubittron is continually watching and tuning the system, issues are often prevented or caught early. Proactive system monitoring and quick incident response help minimize downtime and disruptions​. In a traditional model, you might wait for an available consultant or go through lengthy contracting for each issue, leading to longer outages. The comprehensive AMS approach ensures critical incidents are resolved within agreed SLAs and the system is kept optimized with regular updates and performance tweaks​. The result is a more stable SAP environment and more efficient business operations.


By covering support, maintenance, and ongoing enhancements together, Qubittron’s AMS acts as an extension of your IT team. You get holistic oversight of your SAP ERP without the siloed efforts and hand-offs that often occur with disparate consultants or teams. This unified service model drives higher system reliability and continuous improvements, which are essential for businesses relying on SAP.


Why This Model Is the Best Way Forward for SAP ERP Users

Qubittron’s AMS model – with its cost-effective flexibility, elite talent, and all-in-one service scope – offers a superior approach for modern SAP ERP support. It addresses the key challenges companies face post-implementation: controlling support costs, finding and retaining expert SAP skills, and keeping the system running optimally while evolving it to meet new needs​. In comparison, traditional consulting can be expensive, fragmented, and slower to respond to day-to-day operational needs.


By adopting a pooled-hours AMS service, businesses gain continuous SAP expertise at a fraction of the cost of full-time consultants or ad-hoc projects​. With certified, well-vetted professionals on the job, you also gain peace of mind that solutions will be done right the first time, aligning with SAP best practices and your business goals​. Finally, the comprehensive nature of Qubittron’s AMS means your organization can focus on its core business while all aspects of SAP support – from firefighting issues to implementing enhancements – are handled efficiently by a single trusted partner​.


In short, Qubittron’s AMS offering provides continuous, high-quality support and innovation for your SAP environment in a more affordable and agile way than traditional consulting. This model boosts productivity and ROI on your SAP investment by ensuring smooth operations, quick access to expertise, and ongoing improvements​. For companies looking to get the most out of SAP ERP without the headaches of traditional support models, partnering with an AMS provider like Qubittron is clearly the best path forward.
