SPS Commerce and Open Systems to Host Webinar Unveiling New Integrated Supply Chain Solutions for Mid-Market Companies

Event Will Feature Experts from the Largest Outsourced EDI Service Provider, the Single Source Provider of Accounting and eBusiness Solutions, and Tween Girls’ Products Manufacturer, Fashion Angels Enterprises

Minneapolis, Minn., Sept. 10, 2008 - SPS Commerce, the leading provider of SaaS EDI services, and Open Systems, Inc. (OSI), a single source provider of TRAVERSE^® and OSAS^® software, today announced that they will host a joint webcast entitled, “You Asked, We Delivered! Integrated EDI Solution Now Available from OSI & SPS on Wednesday, September 10, 2008, at 2:00 PM EST. The event will feature executives from SPS and Open Systems as well as tween girls’ product supplier Fashion Angels Enterprises. The event will focus on the speed and value of the integrated SPS Commerce and Open Systems solutions.

In mid-2008, SPS Commerce completed its outsourced B2B integration service with Open Systems’ TRAVERSE accounting and business solution. The companies implemented the new, integrated solution at Fashion Angels in August 2008, with additional implementations underway.

“Fashion Angels’ recent growth has resulted in a surge of new orders from our trading partners, often more than 1,000 per week,” commented Aaron Stenz, logistics manager at Fashion Angels Enterprises. “With this growth, we realized that our manual EDI process was no longer capable of meeting our supply chain needs. My team selected SPS Commerce as our EDI service provider, and leveraged their new integration solution with Open Systems, our in-house accounting system. In a very short time, we were automatically processing our purchase orders and invoices in a hands-free environment. Our retailer charge backs are down, adding new trading partners has been easy, we are free to do non-EDI activities, and we have greatly improved our visibility. We couldn’t be happier with SPS and TRAVERSE.”

Featured speakers for the webinar include:

Paul Lundquist, Vice President of Sales, Open Systems, Inc.

David Novak, Executive Vice President at EDI outsourcing leader SPS Commerce

Aaron Stenz, Logistics Manager, Fashion Angels Enterprises

The “You Asked, We Delivered! Integrated EDI Solution Now Available from OSI & SPS” webinar will take place on Wednesday, September 10, 2008 at 2:00 pm EST. Register to attend or to receive a link to the archived webinar after the event.
