To Deploy Internet Procurement System Motorcycle manufacturer Harley-Davidson

Fargo To Test Web Procurement System Wells Fargo & Co. this week will
become the second major financial-services company to unveil a Web procurement
service for its business customers. The bank views the as- yet-unnamed service
as a way to leverage electronic commerce to expand relationships with its small
and midsize business customers, which number in the millions. IBM,
i2 Form Supply-Chain Alliance IBM and supply-chain management vendor i2
Technologies yesterday disclosed a joint marketing, sales, and development alliance.
IBM will sell i2's Rhythm suite through its global direct sales force in combination
with IBM platform products, system integration services, and E- commerce software.
In addition, IBM plans to set up global centers of excellence to explain the value
of supply-chain technology. Clarus

e-procurement service that will help electronics manufacturers. ###
