               Working               for               IBM               during               the               early               development               of               Artificial               Intelligence               (AI)               had               its               advantages               for               five               former               employees               Dietmar               Hopp,               Hans-Werner               Hector,               Hasso               Plattner,               Klaus               E.

Tschira,               and               Claus               Wellenreuther               who               joined               together               in               Mannheim,               Germany               in               1972               and               created               a               company               which               they               called               "German:               Systeme               Amwendungen               Produkte,"               which               translates               in               English               to               "Systems               Applications               and               Products               (SAP)."               In               the               1960's               Xerox               had               positioned               themselves               as               a               major               player               in               the               computer               industry.

When               they               decided               not               to               follow               this               path,               they               employed               IBM               to               transfer               their               business               system               over               to               IBM               technology.

In               the               mix               IBM               acquired               full               rights               to               Xerox               SDS/SAPE               software               and               gave               Xerox               a               credit               of               around               $80,000               off               the               total               transfer               bill.

IBM               then               gave               the               SDS/SAPE               software               to               the               five               former               employees               in               exchange               for               their               founding               stock               in               IBM.

The               five               men's               shares               at               the               time               totaled               about               8%               of               the               total               founding               stock.

SAP               R/1               was               their               first               software               program.

In               1972,               SAP's               first               customer               was               Imperical               Chemical               Industries               (ICI)               whom               they               still               do               consistent               business               with               today.

               Initial               Preparation
               The               benefits               of               their               software               programs               include               efficient               processing,               money               saving               reductions               in               inventory,               improved               customer               service,               and               higher               profits               just               to               name               a               few.

Implementing               the               system               is               an               expensive               investment               ranging               from               $50               million               to               as               much               as               $500               million               for               large               companies.

Why               is               the               installation               cost               so               high?

A               major               cost               is               staffing               a               technical               support               organization               team               (TSO).

This               team               addresses,               creates,               implants,               and               supports               the               organizations               needs.

This               requires               programmers,               project               managers;               database               administrators,               at               least               one               solutions               architect,               an               internal               set               of               members,               external               consultants,               and               several               test               teams               at               the               very               least.
               The               process               of               changing               from               one               system               to               another               is               called               cutover               or               crossover.

Failure               to               analyze               company               needs               and               purchasing               the               wrong               package               will               result               in               expensive               customization               and               changeover               expenses.

Return               on               investment               is               long               term               and               not               overnight,               and               there               is               no               guarantee               of               project               success.

Converting               a               large               company               to               SAP               AG               can               take               several               years.

There               are               examples               of               implementation               into               existing               companies               available               for               inspection               on               the               Internet.

               The               next               step               employs               sizing               and               blueprinting.

At               this               point,               the               total               cost               of               ownership               (TCO)               is               calculated.

The               next               step               is               risk               factoring.

Availability,               down               time,               and               disaster               recovery               are               issues.

They               require               financial               estimating               and               realistic               analysis.

There               will               be               hardware               failures               and               power               outages               and               there               could               be               disasters.

If               those               events               are               not               calculated               and               planned               for,               they               could               prove               financially               devastating.

               All               players               need               to               be               SAP               certified.

A               skill-set               matrix               is               established               and               testing               follows               training.

This               implementation               and               recording               assures               that               all               employees               are               properly               trained               and               capable               of               proceeding.

The               matrix               will               identify               levels               of               expertise               usually               1               through               4,               designed               to               meet               the               individual               company               or               corporation's               situational               expectation.
               Development
               Now               the               data               center               itself               is               constructed.

A               new               center               built               or               an               existing               one               transformed.

The               designing               will               include               physical               requirements               including               proper               power               allowances,               racking,               networking               and               server               requirements.

The               first               consideration               for               development               of               a               custom               program               is               the               high               availability               issue               (HA)               which               determines               and               describes               the               amount               of               time               the               system               will               take               to               satisfy               the               needs               of               its               user.

Development               of               the               software               subsystem               called               the               solution               stack               delivers               functioning               solutions.

Next,               the               solution               vision               is               determined.

This               stage               defines               the               state               that               the               user               visualizes               as               the               result               of               program               installation.

Finally,               there               is               installation               where               all               components,               foundations,               applications,               and               portals               are               in               place.
               The               most               common               components               to               be               installed               are               the               R/3               Enterprise               for               transaction               processing,               mySAP               BI               (Business               Information               Warehouse),               mySAP               CRM               (Customer               Relationship               Management),               mySAP               KW               (Knowledge               Warehouse),               mySAP               PLM               (Project               Lifecycle               Management),               mySAP               SCM               (               Supply               Chain               Management),               mySAP               SEM               (               Strategic               Enterprise               Management),               mySAP               SRM               (Supplier               Relationship               Management),               and               mySAP               HCM               (Human               Capital               Management.)               With               this,               all               in               place               the               breaking               point               of               the               program               and               stress               test               planning               begins               with               the               new               installation               pushed               beyond               normal               operational               capacity               exceeding               its               limits.

All               helpdesk               and               support               staff               takes               their               positions.
               The               next               issue               faced               is               the               "challenge               of               change."               There               will               be               many               changes               and               some               staff               will               find               it               harder               to               cope               than               others               will.

There               will               be               hesitancy,               denial,               resistance,               and               communication               is               the               universal               solution.

As               all               of               these               processes               came               together,               the               SAP               representative               has               instructed               the               project               administrator               to               create               an               operation's               manual,               which               should               now               be               complete.

A               proper               manual               includes               system               documentation,               day-to-day               operation               tasks,               checklists,               and               how-to               instructions.

These               manuals               are               distributed               and               training               sessions               begin.
               Final               Preparation
               Final               preparation               starts               with               performance               of               a               functional               test               case.

An               improvised               set               of               variables               or               conditions               tests               the               business               process               for               performance.

Constructed               as               a               key               performance               indicator               (KPI)               testing               uses               predefined               queries               to               report               tools               and               real               time               data.

The               technical               support               organization               (TSO)               already               established               takes               position.

Cutover               is               the               last               step               before               going               live.

With               the               old               system               shut               completely               down,               SAP               AG               performs               a               "going               live               check",               and               locks               down               the               new               system.

No               more               changes,               SAP               is               live.

               In               1985,               a               graduate               student               at               Chico               State               part               of               California               State               University               ask               his               professors               to               contact               SAP               and               see               if               they               could               obtain               a               copy               of               their               software               to               use               in               the               database               management               classes               and               SAP               and               the               college               became               partners.

By               1997,               SAP               had               collaborated               with               more               than               25               educational               institutions               including               MIT.

During               the               spring               semester               2000,               Chico               State               developed               an               ultra               thin               .84               Mb               internet               browser               to               fit               on               a               floppy               disk.
               SAP               Business               Ware               (BW)               accelerator               and               enterprise               search               are               appliances,               which               consist               of               a               blend               of               both               hardware               and               software               and               were               developed               for               SAP               AG               teaming               with               several               vendors               including               Hewlett-Packard,               IBM,               Fujitsu,               Siemens               and               Sun.

SAP               AG               and               Microsoft               one               of               their               competitors               offer               a               vendor               partnership               known               as               Duet.
               In               June               2007,               SAP               AG               opened               a               co-innovation               laboratory               in               Pal               Alto,               California               for               joint               venture               efforts               with               other               software               vendors.

Novell,               Questra,               and               Wonderware               all               have               projects               working               there.

This               project               was               a               co-venture               between               SAP               AG,               Cisco,               Hewlett-Packard,               Intel               and               NetApp.

In               2008,               SAP               AG               signed               a               global               partnership               agreement               with               HCL               Technologies               a               $5               billion               Tech-Service               provider               whose               headquarters               is               India               based.

               ACQUISITIONS               &               LAW               SUITS
               In               May               2010,               SAP               AG               purchased               Sybase               at               a               cost               of               $5.8               billion.

This               acquisition               incorporates               the               transfer               of               data               to               and               from               customer's               "smart               phones,"               and               strengthens               their               rental               capabilities.

Where               SAP               AG               has               majored               in               the               sales               of               software,               their               competitor               Oracle               has               greatly               surpassed               them               in               rentals.

Now               they               will               have               a               competitive               edge               becoming               strong               competition               in               this               market.

Sybase               shares               began               to               surge               with               the               announcement               of               the               merger.

SAP               AG               took               out               a               $2.75               billion               loan               and               paid               the               rest               in               cash.

Sybase               continues               to               operate               as               a               separate               entity               with               none               of               its               management               personnel               replaced.

This               purchase               gives               proof               of               SAP's               struggle               to               overthrow               Oracle               for               first               place               in               software               gross               revenues.

SAP               already               has               97%               of               the               market               share               in               pharmaceuticals.

SAP's               next               planned               strategic               move               is               to               bundle               products               at               a               reduced               fee               both               purchase               and               rental               with               the               upcoming               renewals               making               it               a               no-brainer               to               choose               them               over               Oracle.

SAP               will               also               integrate               Net               Weaver               into               Sybase               architecture               and               platforms               as               an               additional               tactic               for               outmaneuvering               Oracle.
