For sellers the benefits include expansion of markets, lower costs of sale, focused market presence, reduced transaction costs, reduced time for open account receivables and reduced marketing cost. mySAP.com enables companies of all sizes and industries to capitalize on the Internet economy. The ability of SAP to deliver customer-centric, open, personalized and collaborative inter-enterprise solutions is the foundation of mySAP.com.
Infosys will partner SAP in the co-development of the mySAP.com Marketplace as well as providing expertise in the functionality, design and construction of the site. Infosys will be responsible for all the deliverables and for meeting all the milestones in the project, from 'freeze scope to go live'.
SAP firmly believes that the delivery of mySAP.com will be the culmination of the company's commitment to e-business and will go a significant step beyond e-commerce. It believes that delivering such optimal service requires an integrated, open marketplace on the Internet, where business community collaboration can take place. In its quest to deliver this quality, the company stated that it was very pleased to be working with Infosys, whose in-depth knowledge of the Net economy, ability to work with short timeframes and a track record of delivering the highest quality code would go a long way in helping SAP deliver its commitment to the business community.
