SAP Business ByDesign is a fully integrated business management offering that delivers the best of SAP software, on-demand, and it unifies multiple business operations and enables companies to implement preconfigured business processes in order to solve immediate problems.
The company said reselling partners expand the reach and scope of the software by selling and positioning the on-demand offering as well as deploying the services.
SAP plans to extend the solution reseller programme to further countries including the UK, China and India over the course of the coming months, with initial partners signed on in France, Germany and the US.
According to SAP, partners are crucial to the success of the on-demand solution, as they market, sell and deploy the offering as well as offer additional services, such as business consulting, business process services or management services, among others.
SAP Business ByDesign enables partners to implement their individual growth strategies, manage their companies flexibly and respond quickly to changing market conditions.
