“Through our Commerce One practice, SIS will provide consulting and implementations services to foodconnex™,” said Jerry Heath, CEO, Systems Integration Solutions. “We are excited to partner with foodconnex™, SCG and Commerce One in creating this new food trading exchange.”
Structure Consulting Group principal Rand Collins says the partnership with foodconnex™ allows his company to expand its e-business expertise to new industries. “Although we’ve focused our resources in the energy industry, we have a vast amount of knowledge about e-business in general,” Collins said. “The opportunity to assist with creating a food industry exchange allows us to diversify as a company and use our expertise in other areas of commerce.”
Commerce One and foodconnex™ announced plans in early May to create a business-to-business e-marketplace for the food industry. The foodconnex™ site will join the Commerce One Global Trading Web™, a network of many open e-marketplaces running on the Commerce One MarketSite Portal Solution that provides unprecedented economies of scale for companies worldwide.
By combining the cutting-edge e-business architecture of the Commerce One MarketSite™ Portal Solution with foodconnex’™ food industry experience, the new Internet marketplace is expected to create a centralized hub for all aspects of the food industry. foodconnex™ will provide a one-stop-shop for companies involved in the food industry at levels from manufacture through purchase. And, by use of Commerce One’s open architecture, foodconnex™ can conveniently hook into any company’s existing IT infrastructure, allowing for greater purchasing power, industry relations, sharing of information and tracking of trends.
