Ketera Procurement Solution Goes Live Two Weeks After Implementation

SANTA CLARA, CA - April 19, 2006 -- Ketera Technologies, the leading provider of On Demand Spend Management solutions, today announced that Clubconnect has selected the Ketera Procurement Solution for use with the Clubconnect Supplyline Portal -- a buyer and supplier market for the Australian gaming industry. Chosen for its user friendly interface, rapid time to value and advanced functionality, the Ketera Procurement solution will be used to improve spend compliance and maximize savings by eliminating maverick or off-contract spending. Reaching over 1,000 users across Australia, Clubconnect's implementation marks Ketera's first customer in the region.
 
"We chose Ketera because we knew their on demand solution would implement rapidly and we were incredibly pleased to have the solution live in just two weeks after implementation," said Greg Petith, Director for Clubconnect. "We evaluated several products and many vendors made broad claims about their solutions. Ketera delivered the results they promised and surpassed our expectations for delivering ROI."

Ketera Procurement delivers the first cost-effective, on demand procurement application for direct and indirect goods and services. A hosted, Web-based solution, Ketera Procurement is an integral part of the Ketera Spend Management suite. The Ketera Procurement service decentralizes procurement practices while helping to maintain centralized control over preferred suppliers and negotiated prices.
