Published: 30 January 2024

Summary

エンタプライズSaaSはいったん採用すれば乗り換えが難しいにもかかわらず、契約に柔軟性が欠けることが多い。ソーシング/調達/ベンダー管理のリーダーは、コストとリスクのバランスを取りながら、長期的かつ安定的にSaaSを使うための契約交渉を実践すべきである。

Included in Full Research

要約

主要な所見
  • ソーシング/調達/ベンダー管理 (SPVM) のリーダーは、規模や複雑性がさまざまに異なる多くのSaaS契約の交渉を迫られている。しかし、これらを適切に行うための仕組みを備えていない。

  • エンタプライズ・アプリケーションは多くの場合、実装に数年を要し、ライフサイクルは10年以上に及ぶ。にもかかわらずその契約は短期で柔軟性に欠けることが多く、ベンダーに高品質なサービスを提供する責務を課すことができていない

  • ERP、CRM、HCMなどのエンタプライズ・アプリケーションの多くはSaaSとサブスクリプションへ移行しているが、多くのビジネス/IT部門の管理者は、そのリスクに気付いていない

推奨事項

エンタプライズ・アプリケーションのSaaS契約を交渉するSPVMリーダーは、以下を実践する。

  • 長期的かつ安定的な契約を目指すべきアプリケーション候補を判断するためのフレームワークを作成する。市場の成熟度、ソリューションのライフサイクル期間、ベンダーのビジネス・プラクティスなどに基づいて、契約の優先順位を決める

  • 想定されるアプリケーション・ライフサイクルに適した長期的な保護と柔軟性を備えた契約条件を交渉する。

  • 経営幹部、ビジネス・ステークホルダー、ITステークホルダーの間で対策を打たないことによるリスクを共有する。望ましい結果を得るために、交渉プロセスにおいてこれらのステークホルダーが果たすべき役割を明確に定義する。
