preparation and running of trainings and workshops.

the systems (production and support systems) and reaching the highest
yearly system availability factors, keeping the expected efficiency and
stability at the same time. The consultants also provide analyses and change
recommendations for the SAP systems’ architecture. All this allows us to
support Hicron’s Clients in a proactive way.

closure.
This team comprises BASIS consultants and module consultants. Their
work is about handling repetitive reports and solving tasks regarding basic
configuration and monitoring the Clients’ SAP systems. They also deal with
