Today, the SAP Business Suite—ECC (SAP ERP Central Component) and BW (Business Warehouse) is available on HANA and soon moving towards the S4HANA suite. “The conceptual vision of a single database for multiple transactional applications thus providing real time reporting to the business will make organizations agile with faster decision making,” states Sushrut Shrotri, Founding Member and Managing Partner at Novus and a veteran with over 18 years of experience in SAP. Novus Global Solutions, an SAP Gold Partner for Consulting Education, leverages SAP suite of products to deliver consulting education solutions across the globe. The company offers strategy consulting, process optimization and technology automation and focuses on Media, Manufacturing, Aerospace and Defense, Education and Real Estate industries for Analytics and ERP in six countries.

Novus has a unique agile methodology that focuses on the rapid delivery of business solutions using an onsite model at a total cost lower than any other consulting model. The experts from Novus are able to deliver projects and re-design solutions at a faster pace to keep up with the changing business requirements. “Our innovative business model has been adopted by Fortune companies in six countries, allowing our customers to leverage local talent from their home country without any budget concerns,” says Sushrut. The company’s unique model not just creates local jobs but simplifies change management and eliminates cultural and language barriers between consulting and business teams.

Novus is a paperless and boundaryless firm—all customer, supplier, employee and stakeholder contracts, documents, payments and transactions are done electronically. “Every year, we continue to increase our investments in newer technology and adapt our processes to make sure it matches our growth,” explains Sushrut. Novus is the embodiment of a firm that talks the walk. “If we believe in something then we enable it first and then we advocate others to leverage it. We don’t talk about cloud technology, we use it for our benefit,” says Sushrut. Novus is deeply engrossed into ERP and Analytics and is exceptionally passionate about SAP. “We are redefining professional consulting using the tools of the 21st century with a methodology created from the ground up with only one focus—Customer Success,” asserts Sushrut. The company has eliminated the model where hordes of Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents are shared over hundreds of screen sharing and conference calls. “We at Novus focus on the basics—what does your business want and how can we give it to them with a high quality, scalable, repeatable solution in the shortest possible time in hours and days, not in months or years,” he adds.

In a recent example, one of the Fortune companies faced issues due to their delivery model, in terms of duration and cost of delivery. “We worked with the company driving their SAP ERP projects using an onshore model in five countries at a total cost lower than any other model,” says Sushrut. Novus also successfully reduced the time of delivery to almost half with a very high customer satisfaction rating. “In four years, we have seen similar success with our model in Brazil, U.S., United Kingdom, Eastern Europe and Asia,” reveals Sushrut.

Looking to the future, Novus would continue to invest in innovative solutions with a strategic focus on SAP. The company truly believes in the paperless business model as well as its onsite/onshore offering. Furthermore, during 2015 and early 2016, Novus is planning to hire students and hone them in SAP. “We hope that this is going to be a crucial step towards bringing more jobs onshore and back into the country,” concludes Sushrut.
