    EPC & ECO

    SAP for EPC and ECO, from first bid to long-term operation.

    EPC contractors win or lose on project margin. Engineering, construction and operations (ECO) companies then run the assets they build for years. SAP connects estimating, procurement, site execution, finance and maintenance, so every project and asset is planned, costed and controlled in one system.

    Why it matters

    Projects run late when data runs late.

    When estimates, purchase orders and site progress live in different tools, cost overruns show up after the money is spent. And when construction data does not reach operations, the asset starts life with gaps.

    Questions

    Frequently asked questions.

    Q1

    Does SAP fit project-based EPC businesses?

    Yes. SAP S/4HANA includes project, procurement and finance capabilities designed for project-based companies, and we configure them to how your projects are run.

    Q2

    How is ECO different from EPC?

    EPC focuses on delivering projects. ECO covers the wider lifecycle, including operating and maintaining assets after construction. SAP supports both, and many companies do both.

    Q3

    Can Kannanware start with a study of our project processes?

    Yes. Our Business Process Study & Recommendation (BPSR) is a practical way to map current pain points before choosing scope.
