New Zealand's source for technology news on Stuff.co.nz: Upgrade to grow, SAP pleads
New Zealand's source for technology news on Stuff.co.nz: Upgrade to grow, SAP pleads: "The vast majority of SAP's 25,000 large corporate customers, which in New Zealand include Fonterra, Carter Holt Harvey and Air New Zealand, still rely on its R/3 enterprise resource planning software suite to run their businesses. It's a product that embodies the culture of company; stolid and process-driven, but mature and comprehensive.
SAP's latest offering, mySAP ERP 2005, provides 500 Web-enabled software processes or 'enterprise services' that customers can use to quickly deploy more flexible business applications that manage their internal bureaucracies.
These can be viewed as the corporate equivalent of human genes, Mr Kagermann says, arguing companies should start using them now, rather than wait for SAP to offer 2500 such services in a couple of years' time. "
