The Make-to-Order Composition Service

FULL DESCRIPTION

With our new make-to-order composition service, we help customers to compose custom applications, based on existing SOA services, on the SAP business process platform. This means user or process centric composite applications are designed jointly with our customers, developed and delivered by SAP and implemented into the customer's system landscape at a fixed price.

Additional services for process design, specification support and business transition are available as optional integrated services and complement the fixed price offering on a time and materials basis.

Why the SOA Approach
SOA provides a foundation that allows a company to build new, complementary solutions on top of pre-packaged processes shipped with the SAP Business Suite or any other non-SAP solution.
SOA-based solutions (composite applications) support experimentation and new business models more quickly and affordably than any other approach now available.
Organizations typically use the SOA approach to create highly individualized role based user interfaces and process flows.

Value to Your Business
In general, the composition approach, based on Enterprise Services from SAP, is a very cost effective way of opening the door towards a SOA by "evolution" - leveraging the architectural advantages of SOA-based applications (composites) and the ready-to-run SOA content of the SAP business process platform.

Composite applications extend the scope of SAP business applications by offering extension options, which go far beyond the possibilities of traditional parameter-oriented customizing.
