Hoping to capture a piece of the rapidly-growing price management application software market before it's too late, SAP AG today announced a rare partnership in which it will sell and support software created by a small Silicon Valley developer, Vendavo Inc. The deal means that SAP intends to make the Vendavo product its exclusive price management software across several vertical industries, including chemicals, high tech manufacturing and oil and gas, according to Chris Rooney, CRM business development principal with SAP. The Vendavo software will be sold by SAP as SAP Price and Margin Management by Vendavo. As part of the agreement, Rooney said, SAP is developing deeper integration between Vendavo's software and SAP's various enterprise applications. Prior to the new agreement, Vendavo was already a "Powered by SAP NetWeaver" partner, meaning the company had built several of SAP's NetWeaver services-oriented architecture infrastructure products into its own solution.
