-- Objective Focuses on Solutions that Integrate Suppliers and Business Partners of All Sizes Into e-Commerce Environments --
Atlanta, GA (August 27, 2001) - SPS Commerce today announced that it has joined a network of leading content service providers whose products and services have been evaluated by PeopleSoft (Nasdaq: PSFT) for compatibility with PeopleSoft`s collaborative applications. SPS` services and products are designed to dramatically reduce the time, costs and effort companies experience in creating and managing online trading relationships. This offering represents a milestone toward the achievement of our common goal to reduce costs and improve efficiency in transacting business over the Internet.
"The SPS solution helps resolve one of the roadblocks that has hindered the adoption of e-commerce for all businesses-the lack of integration of small and mid-sized enterprises into an e-supply chain," said Jim Frome, executive vice president and chief strategy officer, SPS Commerce. "PeopleSoft is the leader in enabling the Collaborative Enterprise. By offering our Supply Chain Integration Service as an option to PeopleSoft`s customers, we will be able to help facilitate a completely electronic supply chain interaction between a buyer and all of its suppliers--ultimately improving the speed and accuracy of their supply chains."

"We believe that PeopleSoft`s Collaborative Enterprise Solutions combined with SPS Commerce`s robust services can help our customers to reduce costs and improve eCommerce efficiency."
SPS Commerce`s Supply Chain Integration Service (SCIS), called SPSCommerce.net, is a unique combination of targeted technology, proven processes and dedicated resources that guarantee the ability for large companies to connect every single supply chain partner - especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) - into their e-business strategy.
