  4. SAP has 2,5 Years History ine-Marketplace Business Delivery of three versions of MarketSet, the joint solution of SAP Markets and Commerce One SAP becomes a member of the GTWA Reintegration of SAP Markets into SAP and Foundation of the Business Unit Marketplaces Foundation of SAP Markets, an SAP subsidiary to develop and market solutions for e-Marketplaces Announce-ment of the partnership between SAP Markets and Commerce One March 2000 June 2000 Fall 2000 -Spring 2002 April 2002 Today

  5. SAP has Achieved a Strong Market Share

  6. SAP Stays Committed • e-Marketplaces will play a substantial role in the business strategy of SAP customers • e-Marketplaces requires different engagements compared to the classical software business • SAP has established a separate Business Unit focussing on e-Marketplaces only • Customer care and partner management • Solution development and support • Knowledge and skill sharing across all SAP e-Marketplaces and their participants • Joint business development w/ successful customers

  7. Key Success Factors of e-Marketplaces Quick decision-making and little politics on Board level Experienced, industry-networked management team with strong backing of investors A value proposition which is sustainable andattractive for ALL Marketplace participants Technology partnerships with long-term perspective and sufficient inhouse skills Simple services and a focused offering, not “everything for all” Governance Execution Business Model Reliability Focus

  8. E-Marketplaces @ SAP The Evolution of B2B Networks Software Provisioning vs. Service Provisioning Summary Agenda

  9. SAP Believes in Open B2B Networks and Supports their Evolution • Build an open community of Exchanges • Interoperability governed by SLAs and contracts • Pooling of Services to lower cost • Faster ramp-up of ww transaction volume • Deliver additional values to participants • Accelerating global roll-out of on-ramp solutions (e.g., e-Procurement, Private Exchanges) • Enabling a global consolidation of the supplier base • Cost-efficient offering of value-addedservices (e.g., SupplierIntegration and Activation, Content Services) • Supporting global sourcing efforts (e.g.,Global Spend Reporting)

  10. Portals and Exchanges are Complementary • Company-internal end-userinformation Service • User Interface canconsolidate visibility andaccessibility of internalsystems • Collaboration Services betweeninternal operational companyunits • Process Integration Enablement(e.g., master data harmonization) Private Privacy • Community Knowledge and Content • Intercompany ConnectivityServices (e.g., Document Routing,Mapping, Roundtrip Procurement) • Value Added Services (e.g. ASP, Sourcing, Financial andLogistics Services) Public Portal Exchange IntegrationIntensity ProcessIntegration InformationIntegration

  18. E-Marketplaces @ SAP The Evolution of B2B Networks Software Provisioning vs. Service Provisioning Summary Agenda

  19. To Unterstand this modelis crucial for every e-MP doingbusiness with a std sw vendor! The Standard Software Model (1) • License revenues are the health indicator of a sw vendor • Mirror the actual value of the SW (flat fee + usage fee) • Have to refund initial CODev and cover COS • Revenue and cost not proportional (one time development cost; neglectable production cost; the higher and more tangible the value, the lower the COS) • Drive multiple follow-on revenues (maintenance, ProServ) • Maintenance rev provide a predictable recurring rev stream • Follow license revenue pattern with delay • Balance out seasonal und economic rev variation • Retain value of sold software • Have to cover cost of support and further development

  20. The Standard Software Model (2) • ProServ provisioning mandatory for vendor • Assure quality of implementation and customer satisfaction • Unlock value of SW and drive usage revenues as well as up- and cross-sales • Revenues proportional to cost • COS have to follow deal size • Direct sales to „Fortune 10,000“ • Channel sales to SMB via partners who cross-sell complemen-tary (!) products & services • Market potential has to justify initial investment!

  22. E-Marketplaces are Responsible for their Solutions – No Software Vendor can be! • There will be no out-of-the-box marketplace solution • Select a reliable vendor for platform services • Select a strategic vendor for application services and tools to keep integration cost low, but do not expect extra flexibility and focus from this vendor • Shop, customize, or build missing functionality, but watch TCO and ROI carefully • e-Marketplaces need technology and integration expertise • to blueprint the solution required to do business • to select vendors and consultants • to oversee implementation and operate/maintain the solution, but must not become tech shops!

  23. For solution detailsplease see appendix Coll. Apps Suited for e-MP Deployment • SRM: Central Supplier Directory • Self-service registration of suppliers and assignment to product catagories; questionnaire-based search functionality • Consolidated view on corporate-wide supply base • Extended and monitored supplier community through mp-deployment • PLM: Project Collaboration • Project, document & folder management • Communication channel consolidation and better project controlling • “Pay by project” cost advantage through mp deployment • SCM: Collaborative Inventory Management • Visualization of inventory status • Reduced inventory stock (manufact.) resp. out-of-stock rate (CPG) • Complete view (all materials, all suppliers, all customers) through mp deployment

  24. Relationships between SW Vendors and e-Marketplaces are Manifold • Supplier-customer relationship • E-Marketplace buys solutions of sw vendor; operationsof this sw has no adverse affect on other business of sw vendor (e.g., platform technology, content tools like Central Supplier Dir.) • E-Marketplaces as partner for value-added services • E-Marketplace complements „on-ramp“ solutions ofthe sw vendor and gets access to his customer base (e.g., connectivity services, industry content) • E-Marketplace as channel partner • E-Marketplace resells sw solutions into its community(e.g., on-ramps for SMB like SAP BusinessOne) • E-Marketplace offers solutions of the sw vendor as ASP (e.g., Project Collaboration, Coll. Inventory Mgmt., eProc.) Uncritical No competitionelsewhere! Needs synchronized sales strategy and ops

  25. ASP Partnerships Require Alignment of Business Cases, Trust, and „Creativity“ • Careful segmentation of the target market to avoid channel conflicts • End-customer buys sw license from sw vendor and can freely chose whether to access a hosted version on a MP (for add‘l service fee) or a Private Exchange deployment • Differentiation between a lightweight version for e-Marketplace ASP (less integration, less functionality) and a full-fledged version for Private Exchange deployment • Solution hosted on e-Marketplace is only used temporarily until inhouse impl. is ready in order to reach a quicker ROI • ...

  27. Summary – SAP stays committed! • e-Marketplaces will play a significant role in the ecosystem and therefore also in the business strategy of SAP customers • SAP remains a committed software partner for e-Marketplaces and will provide new services, but cannot take full responsibility for the technical evolution of a marketplace • SAP is open to discuss all kinds of business partnerships • SAP has established a separate Business Unit responsible for SAP‘sworldwide marketplace acitivites and central point of contact
