"SaaS Business Platform" Design & Building

SaaS Platform

Vigience works with a Fortune 500 service provider to build a next-generation "software as a service" (SaaS) business platform to support real-world enterprise business process mash-ups.

Applications built on the platform have seamless business process and technical integration into connected systems - Salesforce.com, SAP, etc.

The Challenge

SAP applications are the industry standard but the UI is too "hard-core" for the majority of an enterprise

  • SAP applications are the industry standard but the UI is too "hard-core" for the majority of an enterprise
  • Customization is possible with SAP but requires expert knowledge of SAP
  • Enterprises typically have many Enterprise Applications that need access to the same master data and in some cases handle different parts of the same business process
  • Enterprise want to reduce the degree of custom development done to their Enterprise Applications and Systems-of-Record

The Solution

  • Vigience was called in to architect a SaaS Business Platform and do a proof of concept with real enterprise systems of a full end-to-end business process before building the main engine for the real product
  • Vigience worked extensively with the vendor and its partners to ensure that the platform could evolve and, support a business eco-system
  • Vigience delivered the proof of concept which had technical and business process integration between Salesforce.com and SAP for a key end-to-end business process in six weeks!

The Result

  • A lightweight enterprise service bus
  • A business process composer that separates concerns so that relevant experts only need to worry about "their bit", be it:
    • Technical integration,
    • Business process integration, or
    • Landscape management
  • Technical integration components for SAP and Salesforce.com backends
  • Local business process customisation that is backend-agnostic
  • Business process integration content for Consulting : Time Capture -> Customer Billing
  • Development and landscape management tooling
