Dimensions of Performance and Their Value for Consolidation

Better Response for Users, Faster Turn Around Time and Better Able to Grow and Change

• Performance on industry and application benchmarks

• Performance headroom

• Consistent performance under load

• Scalable performance


“Lights Out” Operations Aid With Consolidation

Many customers manage remote centers and require support for “staff-less” operations

“Lights Out” Operations supported through Remote system console functionality identical to local

consoles (including power-on/-off) System “auto-restart” on system failure If failure is due to hardware, failed components are bypassed

on auto-restart to quickly return applications to operational state

Customers can establish single “management” center for all remote sites

Significant opportunity for cost savings Addresses issues of trained staff availability

Coach chose Compaq for Growth

"We originally installed SAP to support the way we always ran the business. Now we're finding that, as our business has changed, we're using SAP as a re-engineering tool to streamline our supplier relationships, corporate configuration and transaction flow”

To simplify management and reporting activities and consolidate data resources, Coach chose to implement an ERP system that would integrate all business functions into a single, shared computing environment.
