SAP's Kagermann May Consider Purchase to Expand Product Line
Bloomberg.com: Europe: "SAP may also consider buying software makers whose products have become popular among SAP customers, a step that would ``consolidate some of the proven applications back into the core,'' Kagermann said.
For now, SAP is unlikely to attempt large-scale purchases as it is preoccupied with overhauling its software architecture, a task Kagermann said is ``stretching the company.'' Once this transition is complete in about two years, larger purchases that help expand SAP's focus would become an option, he said. "
