Business Editors/High-Tech Writers

DETROIT & DELRAY BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 5, 2001

ANXeBusiness Corp, a wholly owned subsidiary of Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), has signed a global alliance with WIZNET, Inc., a leading eCommerce content management company, to integrate WIZNET's "Content Without Limits" capabilities into its ANX(R) service offerings.

Under the multi-year pact, ANXeBusiness will market and sell WIZNET services to prospective business-to-business exchange customers worldwide with particular focus on Japan and the Asia Pacific region. Target industries for the alliance will include automotive, aerospace, energy and health care.

WIZNET provides public and private exchanges and corporations with supplier content that can be linked to transaction or other business processes. By using a mix of proprietary cataloging technologies, highly automated business processes, and a holistic data model, it can extract product information and images from suppliers and replicate the data into searchable "knowledge libraries." These libraries can be integrated with dynamic information, such as price and availability, to support strategic purchasing decisions

"The lack of supplier content management is a significant barrier to realizing the potential of B2B eCommerce," said Alexander J. Preston, ANXeBusiness president and chief executive officer. "By adding WIZNET to the ANX(R) network, our subscribers will have another business solution to make their transition to B2B eCommerce more efficient and effective."

Steve Attanasio, WIZNET's president and chief executive officer, said, "Buyers and suppliers are unsatisfied with today's conventional wisdom in B2B eCommerce because many current platforms give buyers less information than they have in the paper paradigm. With WIZNET, customers can digitize original content, make it fully searchable, and link it to eCommerce platforms globally in many languages.

"That's what we call `Content Without Limits'," added Attanasio. "It allows suppliers to distinguish and differentiate their brands instead of turning their products and services into look-alike commodities."

The ANX(R) network is a multi-provider Virtual Private Network. Today, a collaborative community of more than 600 organizations uses ANX(R) services to achieve reliable performance, complete accountability and highly secure supply chain management. Services offered on the ANX(R) network include eSelling and eProcurement, collaborative eEngineering, CAD file management, EDI, portal services, video conferencing, electronic whiteboarding and more. The ANX(R) network serves multiple industries, including automotive, financial services, health care, railroads, steel, aluminum, rubber, high-tech and manufacturing.

ANXeBusiness Corp manages the technology infrastructure and the 24/7 Customer Care Center, and provides an important overseer role to ensure accountability and high service levels. The ANX(R) network itself, a TCP/IP network (separate from and complementary to the public Internet), is provided and managed by multiple world-class telecommunications vendors including Ameritech, AT&T, Bell Canada, Equant, Ideal Technology Solutions, and MCI WorldCom.

In December 1999, SAIC purchased the ANX(R) network's assets and operations from the AIAG (Automotive Industry Action Group). Through its significant resources, SAIC is accelerating the development of ANX(R) services and infrastructure to make the world's premier, collaborative commerce environment.
