BayLogics Site Acquisition and Facilities Management 

Solutions to Complement Siebel eBusiness Applications for

Corporate Real Estate Customers

BayLogics Inc., the foremost provider of eBusiness applications for Corporate Real Estate (CRE) management, Thursday announced that it has joined the Siebel Alliance Program as a Premier Software Partner.

Siebel Systems Inc. (Nasdaq:SEBL) is the world's leading provider of eBusiness applications software. Siebel Systems provides an integrated family of eBusiness application software enabling multichannel sales, marketing, and customer service systems to be deployed over the Web, call centers, field, reseller channels, retail, and dealer networks.

This partnership will provide BayLogics' customers with tested and validated solutions that integrate Siebel Call Center into two mission-critical CRE applications offered by BayLogics: Site Acquisition Management (SAM), and Facilities Management Service Desk (FMSD). Through this integration, customers can now easily add CRE management automation to their existing implementation of Siebel eBusiness Applications. Under the terms of the alliance, BayLogics will integrate and validate the SiteSeer-ie(R) eCRE foundation with Siebel eBusiness Applications.

The cost of managing leased and owned real estate properties represents one of the top three financial expenditures in the enterprise. BayLogics' solution platform -- SiteSeer-ie -- consolidates enterprise-wide CRE knowledge and activity that otherwise remains fragmented across departments and outside vendors. SiteSeer-ie is a robust, Web-enabled, n-tier application platform that brings every CRE discipline into a single collaborative and synchronized environment. BayLogics' solution enables executive visibility and control throughout the entire CRE lifecycle, resulting in significant cost reduction, increased operating efficiency, and improved corporate financial performance.

"BayLogics' product offerings provide a powerful solution for corporate real estate management," said Catherine Cherubino, Senior Director, Software Alliances for Siebel Systems. "BayLogics' applications integrated with Siebel eBusiness Applications, will help our joint customers better acquire, manage, and dispose of leased and owned corporate real estate assets."

"Delivering a suite of enterprise applications that comprise the eCRE value-chain requires an integrated product delivery strategy, " said Sam Borgese, CEO of BayLogics. "We chose Siebel Systems because it is the leader in eBusiness and is known for providing the most functional, configurable, and trusted applications to its customers. BayLogics is committed to delivering world-class site acquisition management and facilities management service desk application software. Together with Siebel Systems, we can now offer a comprehensive and unrivaled eCRE solution for any company that needs to manage leased real estate assets."

Site Acquisition Management

BayLogics' Site Acquisition Management (SAM) configuration bundle configures Siebel Sales' opportunity management capabilities into CRE-specific deal tracking -- a critical discipline in the eCRE value chain. Effective site acquisition management requires a company-confidential formula of getting the right property at the right time, and at the right price. The SAM application will be the first to provide analysis of past site acquisition ROI, as well as a collaborative environment for executing on current deals. With such powerful analytical capabilities, CRE customers now benefit from eliminating process blocks, enabling faster time-to-market facility deployment that results in a substantial competitive advantage.

Facilities Management Service Desk

Managing service needs for hundreds or thousands of sites requires a collaborative, synchronized application environment that incorporates widely varying lease obligations. Building upon Siebel Service, BayLogics' Facilities Management Service Desk (FMSD) configuration bundle will allow CRE service desks to manage activities with greater efficiency and fewer manual errors. The FMSD application will allow customers to implement help desk, customer support, and field service through the problem tracking and resolution functionality of Siebel Service. FMSD allows a central dispatch center to manage thousands of multi-facility details such as securing supplies, facilitate maintenance, and directing appropriate vendors in critical building failure situations. By synchronizing each activity with the terms of each lease, FMSD saves money by avoiding costly manual errors and speeding response to facilities related requests.

The integrated offering will increase overall corporate real estate efficiency and accelerate facilities deployment for highly competitive industries such as retail, energy, transportation and financial services.

BayLogics has committed to validating this solution by September 2001.
