Hi Kumaran,

<b>xRPM:</b> SAP xApp Resource and Portfolio Management (SAP xRPM) is designed to manage the capacity and deployment of human capital assets across multiple projects.

SAP xRPM integrates information from existing project management, human resources, and financial systems to provide a complete overview of an organization’s project portfolio with easy drilldown to details for portfolio managers, project managers, and resource managers.

<b>Business Scenario:</b>

In today’s competitive economy, the management of resources can make or break new product launches. Delaying long-term or complex projects increases costs and diminishes productivity. To manage high-value, long-term projects, companies must minimize the risks by assigning and maintaining the right mix of human and financial capital, so an ongoing evaluation of requirements, resources, schedules, and employee capabilities is essential.

<b>SAP xRPM Business Benefits:</b>

With SAP xRPM, users can:

• Align every project with corporate goals

• Accurately calculate project risks and benefits

• Mitigate project delays

• Share up-to-date employee skills profiles

• Pair the right people with the right projects

• Better evaluate company resources

• Stay abreast of all projects in the portfolio and their status

Thanks
