PROJECT DELIVERY CAPABILITY
Project System
Structure, schedule, execute, and financially control temporary work across capital, customer, internal, maintenance, and manufacturing scenarios.

PS is a reusable SAP capability rather than one business process. Its structures can support B2A, Engineer to Order, customer projects, shutdowns, internal initiatives, R&D, and other project-driven operating models.
