Halliburton Company

Merger of Halliburton and Dresser Companies

Two Global Business Units

• Halliburton Energy Services Group - Oil Field Services

• Kellogg / Brown & Root - Engineering and Construction

$15 Billion Annual Revenue

80,000 Employees / 120 Countries

SAP Global Instance – 4.6c

17,000 SAP Users World-wide / 4,000 Concurrent users

Need for SAP P3 Interface

SAP Strengths:

Integrated Operational Environment

Cost Accounting

Limitation: Scheduling

Scheduling Process Cumbersome

Capacity Planning Very Cumbersome

Inadequate Schedule Reporting

OpenPS Interface

OpenPS Advantages Many Users at Relatively Low Cost No Servers Required Simple to Maintain WBS / Network Coding Same For Smaller, Less Dynamic Projects (Most Projects) HR Integration (Resources by Employee)

Fixed Mapping Fixed Mapping Rules / No Flexible Configuration No Exclusions (SAP or P3) No Hybrid PS / PM Projects

Fixed Synchronizations SAP to MS Project – Creates New MS Project MS Project to SAP – Creates / Updates Structure and

Schedule: Can be modified as to what is updated. Close Synchronization Coordination Required

Future Development

Project Scenarios (on-going): Many SAP to 1 P3 (designed)

PM Orders (NPPD deployed)

Plant Shutdown (PS – PM Projects)

Engineer-to-Order Projects (PP Orders)?

Synchronization Action Types SAP Calendar
