CA Unloads interBiz Collection Into SSA GT's Sanctuary Part 3: Challenges and User Recommendations ( Pages)
by P.J. Jakovljevic
May 1, 2002 Abstract : The varied product portfolio now under the SSA GT banner will take serious pondering and soul-searching and may likely act as a distraction from SSA GT's primary BPCS product strategy. While SSA GT's gallant attempt to regain credibility in the industry is noteworthy, it still has much more catching-up to do, with the market keeping a close eye on its execution.

by P.J. Jakovljevic
Jan 3, 2002 Abstract : With a flurry of alliance making activities, SSA GT is executing a strategy to save the company from oblivion by extending the value proposition to existing customer base.

Project-Oriented Versus Generic GL-Oriented ERP/Accounting Systems (4 Pages)
by P.J. Jakovljevic
Dec 22, 2003 Abstract : Project-oriented organizations have many project-specific business and accounting requirements often in compliance with complex industry-specific and regulatory requirements. Generic GL-oriented accounting systems have not been designed with project phases, work breakdowns or detailed time capturing in mind, and thus they can merely report how much has been spent or collected, but not why a certain project is losing or winning money.

SSA GT to EXE-cute (Yet) Another Acquisition Part Three: Impact on SSA GT ( Pages)
by P.J. Jakovljevic
Sep 29, 2003 Abstract : Even in the cases where the company has been showing close attention to its customers' wish lists, its crucial tenet of operation is profitability and setting realistic goals. The return on investment (ROI) justification works for the vendor, particularly when its CEO has a strong accounting background. It does not appear very realistic to expect the equitably due attention to over a dozen products, though, as only the enhancements that will result in marketing value to SSA GT will pass.

by P.J. Jakovljevic
