Why is it important to develop an enablement strategy for an SAP cloud project?

An enablement strategy in SAP OCM (Prepare/Explore) ensures users are ready for the cloud system. Option A is correct because it prepares activities (e.g., training schedules) timely—e.g., planning sessions before Realize avoids last-minute rushes. Option B is correct as it baselines delivery—on time (before go-live), to budget (resource allocation), and to quality (effective materials)—e.g., ensuring training meets adoption goals. Option D is correct because it directs activities (e.g., “focus on key users first”), aligning efforts with project needs.

Option C is incorrect—a course catalog is an output, not the strategy’s purpose. Option E is incorrect; trainer assignment is logistical, not a core strategic benefit. SAP OCM uses the strategy for planning and execution clarity.

“An enablement strategy ensures timely preparation, provides a delivery baseline, and directs all enablement activities for user readiness” (SAP Activate, Enablement Strategy Importance).
