    Partners heavily with IBM and IBM distributors

    Has been trying unsuccessfully for 10 years to build a program; looking for over 1,000 Integrated industry centricity of its ERP offering in 25 major codes is key to SAP success in ERP Solid modern middleware base for both brands Will take another run at NetWeaverbased SaaS, probably under the BusinessOne brand (given the failure of the Business By Demand service).

    A lot of Covers breadth of Wide span but standalone, the industry primarily product unintegrated classification supply chain industry-centric codes point products Heavily AS/400based Different platform under each brand Not a major market goal of Oracles according to public statements; may be counting on NetSuite off the books

    ERP/SaaS Strategy

    Trying to build Through partners into major delivery method

    Others have shied away from direct SaaS, most notably Lawson (whose CEO was not shy about it)
