FIT Cat dealer template is not only a system build on top of standard SAP business software. The scope of the FIT template includes the design standards, common master data definitions & migrations, the supporting (and re-usable) testing and training material, the governance processes, the roll-out methodology, and more. The FIT Cat Dealer template is a complete package, not just a system.
The objective of the roll-out to other Cat dealers is to benefit from the economies of scale and the reusability of the template package. Each new Cat dealer SAP implementation should not be become a new adventure and a re-invention of the wheel (this can arise by default if there is a lack of continuity in the roll-out teams and / or implementation partners).
The FIT Cat dealer template enforces the required standards and consistency, but allows some modest flexibility for a Cat dealer process differentiation due, for example, to country-specific legislation. But the roll-out is principally designed to spread the benefits of the common, consistent solution, and maintaining a focus on this is paramount.
The core and Cat related processes of a Cat dealer allow the use of a template; this can substantially increase your flexibility and reduce Cat Dealer IT-costs. These templates can enable you to copy once created structures quickly and cost-effectively (roll-out) and to minimize support and maintenance costs.
