[Fiware-pcc] SAP participation in FI-WARE

[Przewloka, Martin]

Dear Jose,

thank you very much for bringing this issue to my attention. Thomas was so kind to brief me in more details, and I requested Thomas to assess the specific (technical) areas that would require more efforts and attention. Furthermore I asked Thomas to escalate to me directly - this finally will allow me to take the necessary actions. By doing so, I'm convinced that we are able to improve the situation shortly. In any case, please feel free to contact me again in case there's no progress during the next weeks.

Best regards,

Martin

Subject: SAP participation in FI-WARE

Dear Mr. Przewloka

Project FI-WARE is reaching the first months of its activities and important deliverables, regarding architecture and decisions on future activities are now being taken. The implication of SAP on those activities is crucial to the success of the project. SAP, as you know, is one of the key partners provided with a significant financial share. The involvement of SAP is therefore considered essential and ought to be proportional to that financial share across the various aspects of the project.

Even if involvement of SAP personnel visibly taking part on technical activities could be considered satisfactory, we regret to observe lacking evidence of devoting all the foreseen resources in certain technical areas, in particular in terms of proportional technical contributions (assets) for the development of FI-WARE Generic Enablers.

Apart from the above, we'd like to remind SAP to the importance of technical and managerial representatives at key meetings of the FI-WARE project. Absences mean a significant reduction of the usefulness of those meetings and imply a loss of time of other partners coming to the meeting to discuss technical results and actions.

We would certainly appreciate you would take the necessary steps to correct that situation which otherwise may result in a lack of effectiveness of the effort that SAP and all partners of FI-WARE are devoting to the success of our project

Best regards
----
