They don't exist because a certain deadness of the soul is required to do SAP implementations. Anyone who has done it will understand what I mean.

Your information about what share of revenues individuals receive is wrong in my experience. They way this business works is that a project gets staffed with a few who know what they are doing (and are often not employees), who may get 100% or more of their nominally billed rate, filled with the 1/3 to 1/8 people you mentioned whose main task it is to look busy and not say too much.



I remember some wit on Slashdot commenting that "SAP is how Lucifer interacts with our world". Having had some experience with various Tier-1 ERP systems I suspect there may be some truth to this theory.


In my experience the only people making >100% are the partners. So you are correct that they are not employees, but not necessarily that they know what they're doing...
