1 Executive Summary
2
This document marks a major milestone in the development of a
3
Strategic Marketing Plan for the office productivity
4
suitei. Its publication is timed to coincide with the
5
Conference 2004 (OOoCon 2004). Previous versions have had
6
restricted circulation within the Marketing Project; this
7
version launches the consultation process with the whole
8
Community, aiming for a formal submission to the
9
Community Council at the end of 2004.
10
The Plan looks at the current market for office productivity suites, at
11
the major players in the field, and seeks to identify trends which will
12
influence the market over the next five years. It looks at
13
's place within the market now, and where it should
14
aim to be by 2010.
15
The analysis looks at the strengths and weaknesses of the
16
suite and of the Community, and how these should
17
help influence the Community's response to opportunities and threats
18
in the marketplace.
19
It also looks in detail at the features of and the
20
benefits these deliver to customers. From this analysis, the Plan
21
identifies a number of target markets whose needs are most closely
22
matched by the benefits provided by .
23
Finally, the Plan sets targets for penetration by into
24
these target markets, and lists the main strategies which the
25
Marketing Project will use to achieve these goals. It looks at the
26
governance of the Community, and the changes necessary for it to be
27
able to deliver the Plan. Subsequent versions will give implementation
28
milestones for the five years of the Plan.
29
The authors would like to thank all the members of the Marketing
30
Project and other Community members who have contributed to this
31
Plan to date. We look forward to starting a vigorous debate at OOoCon
32
2004 in Berlin. As the Plan evolves, the latest version will be available
33
on the Marketing Project web site .
