Walldorf, July 21, 2010 — SAP Deutschland AG & Co. KG has once again confirmed REALTECH's expertise in SAP NetWeaver Identity Management and SAP BusinessObjects Access Control (formerly SAP GRC Access Control) by extending its Collaborative Business Initiative (CBI). The initiative focuses on a common go-to-market approach between qualified partners and SAP to promote well-defined growth opportunities. The objective is to create an attractive added value for customers and to support them in overcoming current challenges based on coordinated solution concepts.
User companies reap massive benefits from REALTECH's CBI status: the initiative gives REALTECH access to exclusive SAP events that provide first insights into interesting and important information updates. This makes it easier to plan and implement SAP NetWeaver identity management projects. The speed of project execution, the choice of the right technologies, and the right way to implement them is of utmost importance particularly when it comes to Compliant Identity Management as this discipline is subject to constantly changing regulations, requirements, and implementation methods.
Partners who are looking to enter a CBI with SAP need to undergo a thorough selection process that is aligned with the specific requirements of Compliant Identity Management. The list of criteria that this selection process is based on is a very demanding one. Partners have to prove that they have a sufficient number of qualified consultants who have already shown their expertise in the successful implementation of similar projects.
The Collaborative Business Initiative for Compliant Identity Management is reflected in the extended cooperation between both companies as well as in the resulting joint activities. They agree on common objectives and make sure that these are being pursued and, if needed, take the necessary measures to adjust these objectives.
"REALTECH has already proven its extraordinary Compliant Identity Management expertise in the successful implementation of a large number of projects. We have rewarded this by extending the Collaborative Business Initiative accordingly. Working together, we can offer our customers a highly qualified solution for the identity management field. In 2009, REALTECH was among the first CBI partners for Compliant Identity Management," explains Christian Bender, Head of Ecosystem and Partner Group, SAP Deutschland AG & Co. KG. Despite the economic downturn REALTECH managed to live up to the high expectations of SAP and to complete successful and valuable customer projects in 2009 as well.
