Highdeal Achieves Certified for SAP NetWeaver Status

2:45 am   -   August 23rd, 2006

Highdeal has recently announced that the Highdeal Transactive(R) software solution has been successfully integrated with the SAP NetWeaver(R) platform and awarded the “Certified for SAP NetWeaver(R)” logo. The “Certified for SAP NetWeaver” status ensures the interoperability of Highdeal Transactive’s pricing and electronic transaction management software with the SAP application suite.

SAP NetWeaver is a comprehensive integration and application platform and provides the foundation for the world-leading suite of SAP business applications. It also allows the integration of best of breed complementary applications, such as Highdeal Transactive, with the existing SAP application suite. SAP can now extend its rich portfolio to deliver turnkey software solutions including the real-time rating, pricing, and balance management capabilities offered by Highdeal.

The certification reinforces the Highdeal’s partnership with SAP and paves the way for new joint business opportunities, particularly in the area of road tolling projects. In addition to the transport sector, Highdeal and SAP plan to expand their footprint in the telecommunications and media markets where Highdeal already has 150 implementations in place.

SAP and Highdeal understand the importance of delivering and supporting integrated solutions that provide unparalleled value to customers as Harald Hinderer, Vice President, Director Industry Business Unit Telecommunications and Media, SAP AG explains:

“With this certification, communications service providers are now offered an attractive value proposition of running Highdeal Transactive’s solution with well-defined integration capabilities to the SAP NetWeaver technology platform and the SAP for Telecommunications application suite. This will eliminate the need for one-off programming and reduce system admin efforts and therefore help drive down the Total Cost of Ownership of the notoriously high-cost area of billing,”

“Highdeal is a perfect complementary solution for our Electronic Toll Collection solution,” said Frank Wernze, Head of the Industry Business Unit Travel and Transportation Services, Industry Lab. “They offer a highly efficient solution for rating with low cost of integration, even for highest performance requirements.”

“We are very excited about the new opportunities and joint projects that the SAP Netweaver certification will enable,” said Christophe Justeau, EVP, Strategic Alliances, Highdeal. “The certification is a continuation of Highdeal’s strategy to form strong technical partnerships with world-class solution providers. Our relationship with SAP leverages Highdeal’s technology leadership in the convergent pricing and rating market and we look forward to building our relationship with SAP in the future.”

Bailout with a price: Chapter 11 bankruptcy

Mention a corporate bailout in the nation's capital these days and chances are someone will offer a harsh condition to go along with it. Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Lately, the term 'prepackaged bankruptcy' has been gaining currency in the halls of Congress as lawmakers struggle with pleas for help from the auto industry.

The idea, embraced by some Democrats and Republicans, would extend taxpayer help in exchange for a company undergoing an accelerated Chapter 11 reorganization. The arrangement could represent a model, or a deterrent, for any other strapped companies considering seeking government help.

Stocks heads to lower open ahead

Wall Street headed for a lower open Wednesday with investors worried about the economic fallout if Detroit's Big Three automakers are unable to persuade lawmakers to give them a $25 billion bailout.

The market will again be glued to testimony given during the session by top executives from General Motors Corp., Ford Motor Co. and Chrysler LLC. They are asking Congress for a massive infusion of cash to prevent millions of layoffs, stave off bankruptcy and stabilize the companies.

Investors are concerned at the repercussions should any of the three automakers collapse, an event that could ripple through an already battered economy. Congressional Democrats have proposed using part of the $700 billion financial bailout package to pump into the ailing auto industry, but Republicans oppose such an approach.

HP shares soar after solid 4Q outlook

Hewlett-Packard Co. offered a fourth-quarter outlook slightly above Wall Street's expectations Tuesday despite the sagging economy, going against the grain even as other technology bellwethers have slashed forecasts and posted weak results in recent weeks.

Its shares climbled more than 13 percent in morning trading.

The Palo Alto, Calif.-based company expects earnings of 84 cents per share and adjusted earnings of $1.03 per share for the three months ended in October. This is slightly better than the $1 per share, excluding items, that analysts polled by Thomson Reuters are expecting.

Wall Street appeared ready to retreat again Tuesday, as stock futures sank amid nervousness about the fate of Detroit's Big Three auto makers.

The automakers, seeking $25 billion in government aid, have the backing of Democratic congressional leaders, but the Bush administration and Republican lawmakers are against the proposed bailout.
