Making the Grade: Verian Technologies' Makes List of Top 100 Great Supply Chain Partners
Second year in a row that the Charlotte-based Technology Firm has received honor
 
Charlotte, NC — August 2, 2005 — For the third year, Global Logistics & Supply Chain Strategies Magazine has called on its readers to name the Top 100 Great Supply Chain Partners. Readers are asked to nominate vendors that show exceptional service, product and ability to provide cost savings and value to organizations. Verian Technologies — a provider of a web-based purchase-to-pay solution — was chosen to be in the Top 100 for a second year.

Over 2000 nominations for 450 different vendors were reviewed for this year's Top 100 list. Organizations that were selected for the Top 100 were judged on ten common elements that all Top 100 organizations should possess. Those 10 elements were: value and cost savings, reliability, exceptional performance, expertise and knowledge base, problem-solving ability, continuous improvement, support, positive culture, global capabilities, and comprehensive service.

During the nomination process, Verian Technologies' support was described by a customer as being the "best level of support any software vendor" that they had ever worked with. And Verian was recognized for keeping an eye on the most important aspect of business — supporting customers.

"We are thrilled with this nomination and even more so for the compliments given to us by our customers in the nomination process," said Tehseen Ali, CEO and president of Verian Technologies. "To be nominated is an honor but to continually be selected as one of the Top 100 is especially gratifying. We appreciate the recognition by our customers and Global Logistics & Supply Chain Strategies magazine."
