Dun & Bradstreet, in association with Spinnaker Support, hosted more than 100 senior business executives in Delhi in the inaugural Business Connect Conclave 2016 event, of which more than 70% are running SAP .

HIGH WYCOMBE, England, May 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Spinnaker Support, the fastest growing third-party support, managed services, and consulting services provider for SAP and Oracle software applications, reports that switching to third-party support from software publisher-provided support has been identified by Dun & Bradstreet as a "smart strategy" for optimising business costs in India. These findings were releases on 13 May 2016 at the Business Connect Conclave event hosted by Dun & Bradstreet in association with Spinnaker Support and Star Business Partners. The inaugural event grew out of the need for Indian organisations to share "smart strategies" for optimizing business costs.

Througha selection of case studies, the report highlights the strategies implemented by enterprises to reduce their business costs through the effective use and maintenance of ERP systems. The report's Experts View section encapsulates the growing importance of cost optimisation in Indian businesses today.

Inaugural Event: Business Connect Conclave 2016

Dun & Bradstreet's new research was introduced to over 100 senior executives attending the Business Connect Conclave 2016, an event hosted by Spinnaker Support, Star Business Partners, and Dun & Bradstreet. 70% of the attendees are currently running SAP applications with the remainder running Oracle applications or technology. "The Conclave was tremendously well received by attendees, exceeding even our lofty expectations," stated Nigel Pullan, Vice President of EMEA and Asia-Pacific for Spinnaker Support Ltd, "Enterprises are taking a closer look at the value received from their software support and maintenance spend. Although technology models have changed dramatically over the last 25 years, the maintenance model has largely remained the same – except it has become more expensive. Increasingly more Indian companies are looking to Spinnaker Support to reduce maintenance costs and redirect investment towards more innovative areas like cloud, mobile technology, and big data."                                                                                                                                                                                

The Business Connect Conclave 2016 event showcased a panel discussion entitled, The Strategic Shift from Cost Reduction Measures to Business Cost Optimisation. Panelists included CIOs and CFOs from Jindal Steel and Power Company, Canon India Private Ltd, Micromax Informatics Ltd, and UEM India Private Ltd. 

"Third-party ERP support providers are helping businesses achieve their cost optimisation goals with higher quality and more responsive support," said Vipal Anand, Group Chief Information Officer of Jundal Steel and Power Company. "Indian organisations are finding that third-party support is a smart way to minimise the disruption in business continuity caused by coerced ERP upgrades - especially since the desired functionality already exists in their current, stable versions."
