In a recent report "Making the Case for a Private Marketplace: Insights from Early Adopters", Izodia has been selected as a top 10 solution provider by eMetaprise Research.
The report reviews more than 70 software solution providers that support and influence private marketplace initiatives. eMetaprise Research defines the private marketplace as a B2B hub that a company deploys to support internal and external integration and private collaborative processes.
"Izodia`s strategic direction of offering supply-chain enabled software has paid off, and this is reflected in our top 10 positioning of private marketplaces solution providers," says Gavin Lourens, Country Manager, Izodia SA.
The eMetaprise report is based on research and interviews conducted in late 2001 in both the US and Europe. According to Serge Wynen, eMetaprise Research`s project lead, "Private marketplaces have the potential to supplant enterprise application initiatives in terms of commanding the greatest management attention and technology investment."
