Business and
Technical Challenges
© 2013 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 12
Business Challenges
Pressure from Business Teams to mobilize
applications quickly and easily
Users expect same experience for business applications
as they grown used to from consumer apps
Users ask for a streamlined and homogenous
experience across a variety of device types
Executives and Managers demand an intuitive,
consolidated, easy to use interface for approving
workflows and triggering self services from anywhere
Users with approval responsibilities are frequently away
from their desk, making it difficult to quickly respond
to requests
Users who infrequently process certain types of tasks
must relearn the navigation steps every time, causing
frustration, lost productivity, and longer cycle times
© 2013 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 13
IT challenges
Need to deliver an improved user experience with
low TCO to drive productivity of employees
Need to be able to adapt and extend apps beyond the
standard offerings
Total Cost of Development for custom UX increasing
the overall TCO
Improved UI required not only for Mobile devices but on
Desktop as well for a homogeneous experience
across a variety of device types
Low usability and high effort to mobilize workflows
(often the most used mobile app for Executives)
High pressure from business to mobilize applications
quickly versus high effort and limited budget to
mobilize processes

Engaged with 250+ customers to
understand the most common
business functions and how people
want to work …

We have deployed SAP Fiori at Colgate
and the feedback from our first group of
business users has been very positive.
They are excited about the ease of use and
simplicity of the app. We worked very
closely with SAP on the vision and mission
of SAP Fiori and we think the first release
of our collaboration looks great. We believe
SAP Fiori will help to provide consumer-
grade user experiences to our employees.
Tom Greene, Chief Information and Business
Services Officer, Colgate
“I am very excited to see such positive
results from SAP’s UX Strategy in such a
short time frame. The SAP Fiori apps are
as easy to use as Facebook, Google or
Amazon. This is exactly what end users are
looking for.”
Benjamin Salter, Enterprise Architecture and
Application Development, Valero
