IntelliCorp Launches S7 Solutions Portfolio

IntelliCorp, a leading provider of eBusiness and CRM solutions for the SAP community, announced IntelliCorp S7 -- a portfolio of seven strategic solutions. The S7 Solutions Portfolio enables brick-and-mortar companies to not just match, but to leapfrog their dotCom competitors in the New Economy, transforming themselves into eBusiness powerhouses by leveraging their extensive ERP capabilities and investment.

Unlike eBusiness implementation startups, IntelliCorp has extensive experience and knowledge of what it takes to implement and integrate highly optimized back-office ERP with eBusiness and CRM front-office systems. In addition, IntelliCorp has created and marketed business modeling and interface development tools for mySAP.com as well as co-developed a number of SAP's CRM offerings including the Internet Pricing and Configurator (IPC).

The S7 Portfolio consists of solutions for eBusiness Transformation, B2B Procurement, Internet Sales, SFA Implementation, Sales Configuration, Upgrades, and Consolidations which have been designed to meet the needs of traditional businesses implementing eBusiness initiatives. IntelliCorp's new Biz2e Implementation Methodology is the driving force behind the strategic solutions.

According to Tyler McDaniel, Analyst at Hurwitz Group, "IntelliCorp's S7 Portfolio is a powerful set of products and skills that can reduce the efforts and costs involved in moving to eBusiness."

Each solution in the portfolio consists of people, processes and technology to provide solutions that manage interactions between customers, suppliers and partners.

eBusiness Transformation Solution

Before old economy businesses can implement eCommerce and CRM initiatives, they must first understand existing processes. This solution utilizes reverse engineered blueprints to compare against industry best practices. Decisions are made regarding refinement versus replacement in order to streamline front-to-back office applications. The degree of integration both desired and possible is determined early in the effort rather than being encountered as an obstacle after implementation has occurred.

B2B Procurement Solution

Companies wishing to implement B2B procurement can benefit from IntelliCorp's wealth of experience implementing the SAP IPC. Having deployed the majority of SAP's pilot IPC implementations, no other firm understands the requirements of successful B2B implementations as well as IntelliCorp. As with all of IntelliCorp's Solutions, B2B Procurement Solutions are deployed based on libraries from other successful implementations.

Internet Sales

Internet point-of-sale solutions for configurable products, as implemented by IntelliCorp, present users with a series of product options. These are prioritized based on information gathered from previous Website visits, previous purchasing data, and other points of contact users have had with the vendor.

SFA Implementation Solution

Combining configuration and quotation capabilities with mySAP.com increases productivity for direct sales forces, shortens quote-to-cash time and improves order accuracy.

Sales Configuration

IntelliCorp's experienced consultants implement best-of-breed, configure-to-order business processes. IntelliCorp's knowledge of R/3 logistics (SD, PP, MM) provides the business process and technical experience needed to deliver an optimized configure-to-order business process and "pull" supply chain. This solution increases inventory turns by storing components rather than assemblies, configuring products to order, and improving material planning.

Upgrade Solution

The IntelliCorp Upgrade Solution reduces the costs necessary to plan, execute and upgrade an SAP system by up to 40%. IntelliCorp's Upgrade Solution rapidly reverse-engineers blueprints of business processes currently in use. This blueprint becomes the foundation for the planning and execution of the upgrade project, ensuring that all staff involved have immediate access to key business process definitions. This solution significantly reduces the effort and costs necessary to evaluate existing functionality and capabilities in the target R/3 system, including the comparison of ABAP code, data structures, user interfaces and interfaces with legacy and 3rd party solutions.

Consolidation Solution

Either through acquisition or uncoordinated implementation, many companies are running multiple instances of R/3 that are uniquely configured. It is generally more cost effective to consolidate the management and maintenance of corporate R/3 systems at a single location. A major obstacle to system merger is the identification of custom code and configuration settings in all systems that are to be merged. IntelliCorp's Consolidation Solution rapidly identifies where systems overlap and "underlap" pinpointing specific system differences, down to the ABAP code-level.

In the relentless drive to eBusiness, no other company has the depth of knowledge of SAP and mySAP.com, as well as the staff, experience, expertise, libraries and software to provide comprehensive solutions that work. The S7 Solutions Portfolio is available from IntelliCorp immediately.
