Is your project explaining a lot right now?
Let's talk.
Together we look at which parts of the toolkit help your project.
We plan trainer capacity, budget and timeline openly and transparently, so there are no surprises and no cost overruns just before go-live. You know whom you need when and what it costs before it becomes urgent.
Most SAP projects budget for training delivery. The people who prepare and organize it are forgotten. “We'll figure it out” turns into a rush 60 days before go-live, with expensive emergency staffing and a budget that no longer adds up. We calculate demand precisely, model capacity realistically and present a financial plan that holds.
First we calculate. Users by role, training hours per curriculum, locations, languages and schedule constraints add up to the total training demand. That replaces guesswork, and the numbers hold up in every budget meeting.
Then we check capacity against what planning often leaves out. A trainer often needs two to three times the delivery time for preparation. Add travel between locations, breaks and documentation, and quality drops after 6 hours a day. You see how much training one person can actually deliver.
Finally we decide who trains. We look at what your internal trainers can do and when they are available, when external experts make sense and how many train-the-trainer rounds are needed. If something has to be bought in, we provide the selection criteria. The cost of every option is transparent.
With good input data, our calculations are typically 90 to 95 % accurate. We plan 15 to 20 % contingency for unknowns. We have refined the calculation over dozens of projects so it includes what most planning overlooks.
Often partly, rarely completely. The capacity calculation shows how much time is left next to the day job and preparation, and where skills are sufficient. Most organizations use a mix: internal people for process and business context, external ones for technical depth or peaks.
Then we recalculate. If go-live moves from June to August, you immediately see the new demand and what it costs. Project management can decide on that basis.
Industry benchmarks suggest 8 to 12 % of total project cost, including trainers, materials and logistics. The actual figure depends heavily on complexity, locations and user numbers. We calculate it for your situation.
