Consultant System Connectivity (m/f/n)

Project name: Global Batch Traceability

Project description
The Global Batch Traceability project has the goal to implement SAP GBT and connect it with the ERP landscape. SAP GBT is a SAP system used for batch genealogy. 
A pharmaceutical company has to provide the capability of tracking batches and linking them with business activities (batch genealogy) along the supply chain. 
Today at Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) this capability is supported through reporting functionality in ERP systems. To conduct an investigation for e.g. a particular finished good batch (top-down analysis) one has to access several ERP systems, run various reports to collect and then manually consolidate the data. Consequently, we do not have our own employees with sufficient expertise in connection with HP ALM and for this reason requires external expertise.
The project implements the GBT system and connects to 2 main global SAP ERP source systems with standardized and harmonized processes and a central process governance in place. The level of coverage of commercial and operations sites and their data will continuously grow over time. 
The project will be run in agile sprint methodology. 


Background to the assignment
The project will be run in agile sprint methodology with the individual sprints following standard ceremonies such as daily standup, regular sprint review, sprint retrospective, sprint planning 
1.   Daily standup, 15 mins every week day, During the daily standup, team members provide an update on the tasks they have worked on the previous day. After that, the contractor works iteratively on tasks.
2. Biweekly Sprint Review, approx. 30 mins, with stakeholders, During the sprint review, the team presents to the stakeholders the impediment of the product during the last sprint. After that, the contractor works iteratively on tasks.
4. Sprint Planning (JF), approx. 2,5 hours, The Product Owner and the Development Team are defining what will be the tasks for the next sprint, based on the availability, work effort and users feedback. After that, the contractor works iteratively on tasks.
5. Product Refining, The product log is being reviewed and the tasks are being reprioritized if necessary. 

Prior to each sprint meeting, the contractor shall independently check, on the basis of their professional expertise, which individual services to deliver in each sprint

After that, the contractor works iteratively on his/her own tasks.
The contractor to be used by us has extensive experience with such projects that require HP ALM testing skills, therefore the contractor has a unique position and provides significantly different services than the internal project staff.
