When does the team complete the Cut-over Rehearsal in the SAP Activate methodology?

The Cut-over Rehearsal in the SAP Activate methodology is completed during the Deploy phase. This phase is crucial, as it involves executing the final preparation and transition activities necessary for a successful Go-Live.

During the Deploy phase, the team conducts a detailed rehearsal of the cut-over process, which includes testing the procedures to ensure that everyone knows their roles and that the technical aspects are fully functional. This rehearsal helps to mitigate the risks associated with the live launch by identifying potential challenges and allowing the team to resolve any issues that arise beforehand.

Additionally, performing the rehearsal in the Deploy phase ensures that all cut-over activities are carefully planned and validated, providing confidence that the transition to the new system will occur smoothly. The main focus here is on readiness for Go-Live which makes this phase essential for setting the stage for the successful launch of the new SAP solution.
