7 Question mark on HANA Speed CRM is about finding 360 customer data quickly Non-indexed searches are slow = no acceptance With HANA most searches will improve. Users acknowledge the improvement and tend to accept the system better. Analytics Today CRM returns information on a detailed document level With HANA we hope to leverage analytical capabilities and to present results on aggregate level while enabling drilldown options Mobility and Web Shop With HANA the mobile applications can be used Faster access to relevant information for our customers (via web shop) Page 7 Dietmar E.

12 Findings so far Hardware Data base migration is as short and problem free as described by SAP. Data base size from Old DB = 450 GB to HANA = 150 GB The application server might be a bottleneck when sized too small. So far the integration of the application server on our HANA machine was not certified by SAP yet. SAP standard Not all SAP standard function modules were ready for HANA during our proof of concept and ramp-up project. Some code can eliminate the performance advantage. SAP is working on this as part of the Suite on HANA roadmap. Optimization of own coding needed to adjust to the HANA development guidelines Data Base Performance: truly a speedy system Page 12 Dietmar E. Gasch May 20131

13 Our expectations Immediate search framework on click (e.g. account management) Performance of searches Quicker call center response times After moving ERP and SCM on HANA full benefit on time consuming web shop functions like real time ATP checks High Performance Applications (Customer engagement intelligence - CEI) will add real time benefit in different areas. Mobile real time information for sales representatives Logistics analytics leading to optimized supply chain (e.g. VMI) Implementation of interactive reporting based on HANA virtual data model to allow analytical and aggregated view on CRM data and transactions Real time sales pipeline analytics Financial analytics to quickly react on customer behavior Sentiment management to include the web 2.0 into company strategies Page 13 Dietmar E. Gasch May 20131

14 Our decision drivers 1. Higher acceptance of system driven by improvement of performance. (Speeding up daily transactions will result in a greater acceptance and usage of our systems) 2. Broad visibility of and deeper insight into customer related information allows faster and better business decisions. (The in memory computing will enable real time business reports that allow us to react faster to customer and market developments) 3. Reduction of complexity throughout the system landscape by leveraging analytical functions directly on the CRM system. 4. Expectation of reduction of TCO, since large parts of BW can be replaced by interactive reporting, thus no redundant data storage. Page 14 Dietmar E. Gasch May 20131
