ClearOrbit and PEAK Technologies Form Alliance to Provide Integrated Supply Chain Execution, Automated Data Collection & RFID Solutions.

AUSTIN, Texas -- New Alliance Combines Expertise of Both Firms to Deliver Comprehensive Solution for Manufacturers and Distributors

ClearOrbit, the leading provider of real-time supply chain execution (SCE) software solutions, today announced a new alliance with PEAK Technologies, an RR Donnelley company (NYSE: RRD). PEAK is a leading international provider of automatic identification/data collection (AIDC) solutions, enterprise mobility and ongoing support services. This alliance will combine ClearOrbit's expertise providing supply chain execution to Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) users and PEAK's extensive capability for enterprise data capture, printing and systems integration.

Under the terms of the agreement, PEAK is authorized to resell ClearOrbit's software, and ClearOrbit becomes a Solutions Partner under the PEAK Enterprise Partner Program. The PEAK Enterprise Partner Program provides a means and framework to accelerate solutions to the marketplace with companies whose products, processes and people are inline with PEAK's strategy and culture.

For ERP users that seek a single-source solution to integrate their automated data collection, RFID, label compliance, and supply chain execution, the new PEAK-ClearOrbit alliance brings together implementation expertise and unmatched knowledge anywhere in the global logistics and supply chain sectors.

Over 250 leading manufacturers and distributors use ClearOrbit products to enable real-time supply chain execution solutions, integrated in real-time to their corporate ERP system. Through PEAK's alliance with ClearOrbit, these legacy customers, along with new customers, can mobilize their supply chain through workflow process optimization, turnkey wireless hardware/software integration, and automated data collection.

ClearOrbit and PEAK also offer integrated RFID solutions that feature interoperability of both RFID and bar code, are compliant with the RFID programs of such customers as Wal-Mart and the Department of Defense, and can even accomplish such difficult tasks as printing RFID tags over the Internet in remote or drop-ship manufacturer environments.

"Together, ClearOrbit and PEAK can reduce the complexity and risk associated with integrating mobile data collection, supply chain execution, and ERP," said Tom Dziersk President & CEO of ClearOrbit. "We can offer this through our rapid deployment of pre-integrated solutions that use a flexible rules engine, and vendor-independent hardware, tagging, and process optimization."

"PEAK Technologies strives to be the provider of choice to current and prospective customers. Our decisions to form alliances are entered into only after thorough evaluation and due diligence," said Adrian Thomas, President and CEO, PEAK Technologies. "ClearOrbit's expertise in process automation complements PEAK's skills in automated data collection, mobility solutions, and systems integration. Our alliance allows us to provide solutions that leverage and extend enterprise systems internally and in collaboration with trading partners, eliminate errors and reduce latency in inventory flow to respond to real-time demand change."
