Segert Recognized for his Leadership during the Economic Downturn

GAITHERSBURG, Md., March 24 /PRNewswire/ -- GXS, a leading provider of
business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce solutions, today announced that its
President and Chief Executive Officer, Bob Segert, has been named a 2009 "Pro
to Know" by Supply & Demand Chain Executive magazine. This year's winners were
specifically recognized for "demonstrating leadership during the current
economic downturn by managing risk in the supply chain, providing competitive
advantage and/or delivering value to the bottom line." Supply & Demand Chain
Executive's Pros to Know is a listing of individuals who have a vision for
21st century supply chains and who have personally helped clients apply
technology or processes to modernize their supply chains.

In his role as president and CEO, Segert works closely with Fortune 500
companies as well as small and medium sized businesses (SMBs) to solve their
most critical global supply chain management challenges. Since the start of
his tenure, Segert has placed a razor sharp focus on growing GXS Managed
Services, the company's portfolio of B2B outsourcing solutions. In 2008, under
Segert's leadership, GXS was able to grow its managed services revenue by more
than 25 percent and signed 30 new customers at an average contract amount of
more than $1 million for the first time in GXS' history.

"GXS strives to deliver a top notch, comprehensive suite of B2B managed
services that help our customers cut costs and ease the stress of managing
complex supply chains while also helping them grow their businesses," said
Segert. "Through the tireless efforts of the entire GXS team, we are able to
not only continue to innovate and expand the capabilities of our platform, but
we also can give our customers a greater appreciation of the benefits of B2B
outsourcing solutions. Being named a Supply & Demand Chain Executive Pro to
Know is a reflection of our entire team's ability to help our customers
achieve these goals."

in their respective supply chain segments," said Andrew K. Reese, editor of

processes that enable companies to weather risky economic conditions and place
them in a position to surge ahead in better times have earned them a place on

Chain Executive's Editorial and Advisory Board members who culled through
scores of nominations to find the applicants that best fit the criteria. The
