Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

ERP is maturing and consolidating as vendors seek to acquire a critical mass of customers and maintenance revenues. License revenues will rebound from declining to minimal growth, with maintenance becoming the bulk of the business. Significant opportunities exist for large companies to consolidate their ERP system environments for efficiencies. New opportunities are also developing for better business-process support, deeper verticalization, and integration middleware. Toward the end of this decade, we anticipate the emergence of the next generation of application packages, extensively leveraging service-oriented architectures (SOAs).
