Inovis Acquires BetweenMarkets, Advances Momentum in Executing Business Community Management Strategy: Announces immediate availability of Suppl

ATLANTA & AUSTIN, Texas (Business Wire EON) November 5, 2007 -- "The acquisition of BetweenMarkets fuels our momentum towards delivering our Business Community Management vision," said Sean Feeney, president and CEO of Inovis. "With the BetweenMarkets' applications integrated with our suite of applications and Multi-Enterprise Expert Services Hub (MESH) platform, companies can change the way in which they engage the supply and demand chain for significant profitability and competitive gains."

BetweenMarkets' applications are already integrated into the Inovis platform and are available today. Applications for supply chain hubs and retailers include: Order Exception Management and Deduction Management and Partner Performance Management. Applications for suppliers include: Fulfillment Management, Chargeback Avoidance Management and Compliance Change Management.

Accelerating Business Community Management

The BetweenMarkets acquisition continues a string of significant achievements by Inovis in executing its global Business Community Management strategy. Highlights include:

-- Inovis MESH launch provides fully redundant platform designed to deliver 100% availability and a data center designed to deliver 99.995% availability.

Delivering Actionable Intelligence

BetweenMarkets' solutions help trading partners find and fix errors across electronic transactions, such as orders, shipment notifications and invoices. For example, a large retailer might have a thousand suppliers and data errors in up to twenty percent of transactions. These errors, such as mismatched item quantities across orders and shipments, delay shipments to stores and customers, trigger fines and deductions to suppliers and slow down payment cycles.

BetweenMarkets' applications monitor these transactions against business rules and compliance guides to uncover errors and exceptions before they impact the supply chain. With this Actionable Intelligence, trading partners can collaborate to improve their supply chain network, improving business process compliance and reducing supply chain penalties or chargebacks.

BetweenMarkets' simple 5-step process includes:

1. Review of all critical Key Performance Indicators (KPIs);

2. Identify errors and issues down to the item-level in a document;

3. Isolate problems within documents to their root cause;

4. Classify and diagnose errors; and

5. Remediate by fixing errors across transactions, such as quantity mismatches between a ship notice and an order.

"Since we have been working on the integration of BetweenMarkets' applications with our Inovis MESH platform, these new services will be available immediately to our customers," said Steve Cochran, chief technology officer of Inovis. "With a foundation of high quality services and complementary software architecture, Inovis will be able to rapidly launch new supply chain and business process management applications that work well with existing B2B technology investments."

"Inovis is the ideal organization to continue the work we began at BetweenMarkets," said Rob Lynch, president and CEO of BetweenMarkets. "With rock-solid operations, existing distribution, sales and support infrastructure and a solid client base across a number of vertical markets, this acquisition will serve to expand our original vision on a global scale."

Erik Huddleston, founder and chief technology officer of BetweenMarkets, will join Inovis as vice president of strategic applications. In addition, Inovis will retain the rest of the BetweenMarkets development, support and marketing staff.
