Why AGL Trusted FAIR

"We engaged FAIR Consulting Group to conduct a thorough assessment of our SAP BTP global account setup, focusing on platform structure, security and operational processes.

FAIR brought significant domain expertise and a structured, outcome-driven approach to the project. During the assessment period, they performed an in-depth review of our existing BTP landscape, including subaccount design, governance practices, identity services and integration architecture.

A key strength of their engagement was FAIR’s ability to swiftly identify gaps and inefficiencies in our setup and translate these findings into practical best-practice recommendations aligned with SAP standards and industry benchmarks. Their deliverables were clear, actionable and specifically tailored to our environment, covering aspects such as account model design, security configuration and operational governance.

Moreover, the engagement provided more than just theoretical guidance. FAIR facilitated structured playback sessions and offered implementation-oriented recommendations, enabling our team to confidently redesign our BTP landscape.

As a direct result of their insights, we successfully rebuilt our SAP BTP subaccounts on a solid and scalable foundation. This has significantly enhanced the consistency, manageability and long-term sustainability of our platform, positioning us to better support future growth, foster innovation and increase the adoption of SAP BTP services.

Overall, FAIR Consulting Group delivered high-quality outcomes and demonstrated strong expertise in SAP BTP architecture and governance. Their contribution has been instrumental in establishing a robust platform foundation and minimising risks as we continue our broader SAP transformation journey."

BUILDING A SCALABLE SAP BTP FOUNDATION TO IMPROVE GOVERNANCE, SECURITY AND OPERATIONAL CONTROL

AGL partnered with FAIR to establish a scalable and governed SAP BTP foundation that would support future integration, automation and application development initiatives. Prior to the engagement, the organisation faced challenges with inconsistent account structures, manual deployment processes, limited monitoring capabilities and fragmented governance across environments. These issues increased operational risk and reduced scalability across the platform landscape.

FAIR delivered a structured BTP governance and architecture strategy, defining best-practice account models, deployment approaches and integration standards across SAP BTP services. Recommendations included CI/CD-enabled deployment processes, governance frameworks for integration and application development, and security improvements through service separation and lifecycle management controls. SAP Cloud ALM monitoring and alerting capabilities were also incorporated to improve operational visibility and proactive platform management.

The resulting framework provided AGL with a scalable and secure SAP BTP operating model, improving platform governance, strengthening reliability and enabling more efficient management of integrations and applications. With a structured foundation now in place, AGL is better positioned to support long-term innovation and future growth initiatives on SAP BTP.
