Visiprise Manufacturing Earns SAP(R) Integration Certification

Integration of Visiprise Manufacturing to be showcased at SAPPHIRE(R) '05 Boston

ATLANTA, May 11 -- Visiprise, Inc., a recognized leader in helping manufacturers manage and control global operations to improve quality and compliance, announced today the company has taken another step in strengthening its relationship with SAP AG that Visiprise announced in March of this year.

This furthers the collaborative development under which Visiprise and SAP will offer a turnkey business software solution that combines real-time manufacturing performance management data with Visiprise's complex traceability functionality, delivering information to the user through the SAP(R) for Manufacturing dashboard. Visiprise Manufacturing IL Module 1.0 is now a designated "Certified for SAP NetWeaver" application.

"Offering a certified solution helps both our customers and our future prospects utilize a single platform for manufacturing performance," said Carter Johnson, Vice President of Strategy and Business Development at Visiprise. "Many world-class organizations are looking to SAP and Visiprise to provide them with a complete manufacturing solution."

Leveraging the power of SAP NetWeaver to integrate disparate technologies using preconfigured business content, users of Visiprise Manufacturing will be able to greatly reduce the amount of time and custom integration needed to implement a global manufacturing platform. As a result, users will be better able to take advantage of critical plant-floor and enterprise information, providing unparalleled visibility across the global manufacturing enterprise from start to finish.

Later this month at SAPPHIRE '05 Boston, Visiprise Manufacturing will be showcased in the "Adaptive Business Network Discovery Tour." This tour will lead manufacturing executives through a typical day in the life of a manufacturing plant that is optimizing the power of SAP NetWeaver to achieve increased levels of adaptability, flexibility and openness in order to reduce the total cost of ownership of enterprise-scale business solutions.
