According to Deloitte's partner in the CIS, Alexander Ilyin, by June 2021, SAP is actually localizing itself in Russia. The company has a very stable position in the large business segment and constantly adapts solutions to Russian specifics. This can be called localization, he explained.

CorpSoft24 CEO Konstantin Renziaev in a conversation with the publication said that the idea of ​ ​ localizing SAP software received a tough reaction from the market. He noted that the goals of the Voskhod Research Institute in the proposed project were not entirely clear. There are domestic systems on the market, such as 1C, which are not only not inferior to SAP products, but sometimes surpass them.

The idea with a subsidy for localizing SAP could only be offered by those who do not understand the scale of the system, says information technology expert Vadim Podolny. Konstantin Renziaev agrees that Voskhod would not have enough competence to localize, and the company would have to attract third-party organizations, which would entail additional costs.[1]

Research Institute "Sunrise" asks the government for subsidies for the localization of SAP software

The Voskhod research institute (Scientific Research Institute Voskhod) sent the Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko the letter with a request for granting subsidies for localization in Russia program obespecheniyaSAP. This became known on April 19, 2021.

According to Kommersant, citing this appeal, Voskhod intends to create a Russian ERP system together with SAP, which can be implemented in Rostec, Rosatom and Russian Railways. The research institute told the publication that in order to develop domestic ERP products and create new ones, it is necessary to analyze and take into account the experience of leading manufacturers. At the request of the publication, SAP refrained from informative comments about the Voskhod letter and only noted the company's readiness to localize products. SAP also called the Russian market important.

According to Ilya Massukha, director of the Center for Import Substitution Competencies in ICT, SAP is trying to circumvent import substitution, since the company does not intend to lose the Russian market. The expert believes that the task of localization lies with the manufacturer, and not with the state.

Sergey Vikharev, Director of Technology Practice at KPMG in Russia and the CIS, believes that if a special center is created to finalize individual versions of SAP products and transfer rights to them, the results of the intellectual activities of such a structure could potentially be recognized by Russian software with the corresponding project claims for state subsidies.

The initiative of the Research Institute does not make foreign software Russian, and under the conditions of sanctions, foreign vendors will maintain the possibility of influencing the economy and security of the country, said Renat Lashin, executive director of the Domestic Software Association.[2]

When you compare the figure of 2.3 thousand customers of our cloud ERP system with the figure of approximately 7 thousand customers, to which a certain other vendor in the market is approaching, as he himself says, you should be careful. Since this is not always a comparison of the same things, said Klein.

He explained that Oracle manipulates numbers to look better against the backdrop of SAP.

According to him, when calculating the number of cloud ERP implementations, Oracle takes into account not only the number of customers using the Oracle ERP Cloud enterprise resource management system, but also separately users of the cloud product for managing relationships with Oracle Procurement Cloud suppliers and Oracle HR Cloud users - a cloud solution for human resources management.

File:Aquote1.png
Our own human resources management product SuccessFactors is already fully integrated into the S/4HANA Cloud. And by the end of the II quarter of 2020, the platform will fully include the Ariba solution for managing relations with suppliers, "commented the top manager.

If you take into account the number of customers using these two solutions separately - I will not disclose specific numbers now - you can estimate today that the total number of users of cloud ERP systems is almost double that of Oracle, "he concluded.[3]
