MALAYSIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 4, 2000

Direct Presence To Support Existing Customer Base and

Meet B2BE-Commerce Integration Needs

Viewlocity Inc., a global provider of B2B integration and online trading community solutions, announced today the establishment of its Malaysia office to support its existing base of customers, and meet increasing market demand for B2B e-commerce integration solutions.

Viewlocity has built a strong customer base to drive some of the most innovative e-business projects in the country, including companies such as BSN Commercial Bank, MIMOS, Gateway Malaysia, DHL Malaysia, Pelabuhan Tanjung Pelepas, Klang Container Terminal, Klang Port Management, Green Peninsular and Westport. At the same time, Viewlocity also announced a new Malaysian customer, UET, part of the UMW Group, a well-established business conglomerate that has chosen Viewlocity to provide the e-infrastructure behind their plans to develop an online trading community.

"Malaysia, like the other mature Asian economies, is reaching a stage where companies need to streamline business processes with their trading partners and enhance customer responsiveness to stay competitive," commented Anders Berglund, Regional Managing Director, Viewlocity Asia Pacific. "The opening of our Malaysian office fills this vacuum for B2B e-commerce integration solutions, giving companies the agility to rapidly implement and scale their new economy business models."

As part of its commitment to the companies in the peninsula, this year Viewlocity will be organizing a series of educational programs, which do not focus on technology, but provide operational heads with the chance to get to grips with and discuss the real business issues behind B2B e-commerce.

Existing customers use Viewlocity's B2B integration solutions to connect in real time the disparate systems, applications and processes that make up a supply chain, as well as for Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) to prepare companies for B2B e-commerce.
