In a bid to help small and medium-size manufacturers deploy ERP systems more rapidly and better understand the cost of software implementations, SAP today announced plans to roll out what it calls a "fast start" program for users of its Business All-in-One product. The program includes online configuration tools, pre-defined industry-specific processes, and an online cost-estimating tool. The program, already rolled out in Austria, Australia, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, will be available in the United States early in the second quarter and other areas later this year. "In the SME space, customers want a starting point," said Sheila Zelinger, SAP vice president for SME solution marketing, in an interview with Managing Automation.
