PHILADELPHIA -- Speeds Integration of Leading Service Parts Planning Solution for Fast ROI and Maximum Value from Existing Investments in SAP(R) Solutions

MCA Solutions today received "Powered by SAP NetWeaver(R)" certification for its Service Planning and Optimization (SPO(TM)) software suite. The certification gives SAP customers across multiple industries immediate access to one of the most complete service parts planning solutions on the market.

This certification extends the SAP integration certification that MCA received last year for SPO version 4. It enables MCA customers to further leverage their implementation of the SAP NetWeaver platform to run SPO version 5.1 on the SAP NetWeaver Application Server Release 6.40 and to access views on any platform via SAP NetWeaver Portal 6.0 and MCA's Service Planning and Optimization Business Package 60.1

"More companies are realizing the need for responsive planning for parts and service to increase service profitability at lower costs," said Bob Salvucci, president and CEO of MCA Solutions. "This certification allows customers to further leverage their investments in SAP solutions through rapid integration of MCA's best-of-breed solution with the Enterprise Services Architecture from SAP."

MCA Solutions' SPO suite is consistently recognized as the leading service-focused forecasting and planning solution. A recent AMR Research report called "Service Parts Planning Vendor Landscape: Managing the Service Level and Inventory Investment Tradeoff," states "MCA Solutions, designed specifically with customer-centricity in mind, offers the most differentiated functionality at present." MCA earned the highest rating across all four categories of functionality for customer-centric businesses in AMR Research's report, which was issued in June 2005.

Leading service organizations in aerospace, defense, and high-tech industries, including Boeing, Cisco and KLA-Tencor, are using MCA's software to reduce inventory, increase fill rates and dramatically improve customer satisfaction.
