Business Issues … Why SAP?

Business Issues !  Excelerate needed a world-class system to support business

!  A system that could be easily scale

!  It had to start small, at low cost and be easily sustained or expanded

!  It had to provide strong financial controls and a great deal of automation, so Excelerate could stay lean and remain efficient

Approach !  They considered a variety or ERP solutions and chose SAP for the following reasons:

–  Needed a system that could scale up to growth plans –  Footprint in the industry –  Comprehensive, end to end, coverage (no surprises!) –  Commitment to organic, user initiated, change
