Highdeal achieves "Certified
for SAP NetWeaver" status
London
and New York, August 17, 2006 - Highdeal today announces
that the Highdeal Transactive® software solution has been
successfully integrated with the SAP NetWeaver® platform
and awarded the "Certified for SAP NetWeaver®"
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 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
