Click Commerce Presents Contract and Service Management Webinar: Driving Local Compliance with Global Service Providers

Business Wire, April 6, 2006

CHICAGO -- Click Commerce, Inc., (Nasdaq:CKCM), a leading provider of on-demand supply chain management solutions, presents the Webinar, "Contract and Service Management: Driving Local Compliance with Global Service Providers." The event will be held on April 20 at 10 am EDT and will feature AMR Research Director Mickey North Rizza and Sampath Gomatam, vice president of professional services for the Click Commerce Contract and Service Management group. Rizza and Gomatam will discuss how CSM technology can help companies efficiently outsource services and labor, improve spend management, and ensure compliance to procurement policies.

Part of the year-long Webinar series featuring AMR Research "Winning in a Flat World, How to Compete in the Real-Time Global Marketplace," the contract and service management Webinar will inform chief purchasing officers, financial officers and information officers how to effectively manage large workforces of contingent labor and outsourced services.

According to a report by CAPS Research, a nonprofit research organization dedicated to supply and supply chain issues, in large companies, as much as 86 percent of total purchasing expenditures are for services.

"Most services companies today purchase and manage services and contractors offline, without adhering to procurement policies or established spend management practices," said Nancy Koenig, executive vice president of operations for Click Commerce. "By implementing a contract and service management solution, extended enterprises can gain control of the services invoice to significantly reduce spend."

In addition to this series, the year-long Webinar program includes discussions on the service supply chain, demand chain management, supply chain management, and master data management. Part three of the three-part series, "The Service Supply Chain Revolution: New Ways to Streamline Operations, Drive Profits, and Delight Customers," will feature a Click Commerce customer and will be held on May 16 at 10 am EDT. Joining the customer will be Mark Hillman, AMR Research senior analyst, and Bob Leeds, senior product manager for the Click Commerce Service Parts Optimization and Planning group.
