Inovis Customer Honored with InfoWorld 100 Win

Morgan Foods Recognized for Innovative Use of BizManager Solution to Meet Customer Mandates

ATLANTA — December 7, 2004 — Inovis, a leading provider of business to business solutions and services, today announced that consumer products supplier Morgan Foods is an InfoWorld 100 award-winner for its innovative use of the Inovis BizManager™ family of Internet Electronic Data Interchange (EDIINT) software and retail item synchronization services.

The InfoWorld 100 awards honor companies that demonstrate the most creative use of cutting-edge technologies to further their business initiatives. Winners were selected for their use of solutions that stretched beyond the typical, off-the-shelf offering, using multiple technologies in innovative ways to serve well-defined business goals.

“This year, InfoWorld honors a host of innovative projects, like that of Inovis/Morgan Foods, that highlight the resourcefulness of the IT community,” said Eric Knorr, senior features editor. “IT departments have learned hard lessons about business realities and realistic ROI. The InfoWorld 100 provides a forum for IT managers to get the recognition they deserve for smart projects from an audience of their peers.”

Morgan Foods was selected by InfoWorld for its use of Inovis BizManager, the most comprehensive solution available for trading partner and business messaging, connectivity and B2B integration. The web-based BizManager solution helps Morgan Foods manage the flow and secure transport of electronic data, documents and information in a secure and cost-effective environment.

BizManager also enabled Morgan Foods to meet the rigorous mandates imposed by the world’s largest retailer, Wal-Mart, for both AS2, a specific connectivity standard for Internet EDIINT, and UCCnet GLOBALRegistry, the UCC’s standard foundation for data exchange and synchronization among trading partners. The flexibility and ease of integration of Inovis’ solutions enabled Morgan Foods to conduct critical business transactions ahead of schedule, while continuing to deliver quality products more efficiently and accurately.

“Morgan Foods is a prime example of Inovis’ ability to evolve with customers by enabling them to easily adopt new communication protocols required by their trading partners,” said Mike Croxton, Inovis’ senior vice president of marketing. “We are proud of the role that Inovis has played in providing Morgan Foods with the technology to meet their business needs and maintain a competitive edge.”
