Werner Habryka: It is no longer necessary<br />

to pay for expensive licenses for different<br />

s<strong>of</strong>tware programmes. <strong>The</strong> user only pays<br />

for what <strong>the</strong>y use. We are currently advising<br />

a customer in Bremen who would like<br />

to use <strong>the</strong> Mall. <strong>The</strong> comparative values<br />

we calculated showed that <strong>the</strong> Mall <strong>of</strong>fers<br />

a potential saving <strong>of</strong> more than 25 percent.<br />

No more investment costs in hardware and<br />

s<strong>of</strong>tware, no maintenance costs, no energy<br />

costs for <strong>the</strong> operation and cooling <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

sever, and <strong>the</strong> customer can focus all <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

efforts on <strong>the</strong>ir core business.<br />

<strong>LB</strong> Plus: And what about <strong>the</strong> provider?<br />

Werner Habryka: For <strong>the</strong> provider, <strong>the</strong><br />

Mall is a sales platform. We have created<br />

a completely new channel, which has <strong>the</strong><br />

effect that customers approach providers.<br />

Providers <strong>of</strong> transport or supplied chain<br />

management systems or warehouse management<br />

systems which we already have in<br />

<strong>the</strong> mall pr<strong>of</strong>it from <strong>the</strong> "pull". <strong>The</strong> more<br />

providers and users are connected through<br />

<strong>the</strong> Mall, <strong>the</strong> bigger <strong>the</strong> "pull".<br />

<strong>LB</strong> Plus: In phase 3, a process designer was<br />

added. How does <strong>the</strong> user benefit from this?<br />

Werner Habryka: In <strong>the</strong> future, it will get<br />

easier and easier to create a workflow out<br />

<strong>of</strong> individual applications using <strong>the</strong> process<br />

designer. <strong>The</strong> workflow will <strong>the</strong>n run automatically.<br />

Making <strong>the</strong> modules <strong>of</strong> a s<strong>of</strong>tware<br />

available as apps, however, will take<br />

some time. S<strong>of</strong>tware development is heading<br />

exactly in that direction and as a result,<br />

apps will become <strong>the</strong> norm in <strong>the</strong> near future.<br />

We are somewhat ahead <strong>of</strong> our time<br />

with <strong>the</strong> process designer.<br />

<strong>LB</strong> Plus: <strong>The</strong> Logistics Mall is a product <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> Logata group. You have taken up <strong>the</strong><br />

"We concept" with a virtual company.<br />

Werner Habryka: Exactly. "<strong>The</strong> Mall<br />

Company" was created to join <strong>the</strong> different<br />

trades and companies <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> group.<br />

When we are talking about <strong>the</strong> Mall, we<br />

work like one big company with different<br />

departments and areas <strong>of</strong> responsibility.<br />

LinogistiX is responsible for applications,<br />

LogAgency for communication, Logata for<br />

administration and project management,<br />

and Lanfer Systemhaus for <strong>the</strong> smooth operation.<br />

<strong>The</strong> "We concept" is crucial for <strong>the</strong><br />

success <strong>of</strong> our work.<br />

<strong>LB</strong> Plus: Thank you for talking to us!<br />
