SAP xApp Resource and Program Management

Key Capabilities

The SAP xApp Resource and Program Management (SAP xRPM) packaged composite application gives you all the integration and collaboration tools you need to manage and execute complex IT and R&D projects. Key capabilities include:

  • Project portfolio management -- SAP xRPM offers a "dashboard" of relevant project information that includes key performance metrics on budgets, schedules, and staffing. This centralized view is crucial to managing your enterprisewide portfolio of projects.
  • Project execution -- SAP xRPM intelligently integrates data from disparate project management systems to create a complete and easy-to-use suite of calendars, to-do items, threaded discussions, document management, and role-based notifications across the project team.
  • Staffing resource assignment -- SAP xRPM provides a comprehensive account of employee capabilities and availability. Both managers and employees contribute skills, experiences, and aspirations -- so you can match the right employees to the right projects at the right time.
  • Advanced skills management -- SAP xRPM uses passive and assisted skills-profiling techniques to maintain up-to-date information about the skills and know-how of project team members. Managers can use SAP xRPM to discover sources of expertise within the organization. Employees can use SAP xRPM to opt into projects that advance their careers.
  • Reporting -- From planning through project completion, SAP xRPM provides project portfolio analytics and reporting for continuous process improvement throughout the project life cycle.
