SAP's plans to dominate the software world are very enterprising. The company is the leading provider of enterprise resource planning (ERP) software used to integrate back-office functions such as distribution, accounting, human resources, and manufacturing. More than 47,500 companies in some 120 countries use its software. SAP has leveraged its prominent position in the ERP market to expand into related fields, including business intelligence and customer relationship management (CRM). The company has also increasingly targeted small and midsized customers as an area for future growth. In early 2008 the company acquired business intelligence software provider Business Objects for about $6.8 billion.
