Wyeth's Upgrade to SEEBURGER's Global B2B Platform Reduces Costs

Five EDI Support Groups Consolidated into One in B2B Modernization Project

ATLANTA, April 29 /PRNewswire/ -- SEEBURGER Inc. announced today that Wyeth's
deployment of the SEEBURGER Business Integration Server (BIS) as part of a B2B
modernization project has reduced costs and streamlined B2B operations for the
pharmaceutical company. Use of BIS has enabled Wyeth to consolidate five
distributed EDI support groups into one, reduce EDI-related labor costs by 60%
and software licensing costs by 20%, shrink existing map requirements for its
600 external trading partners from 600 to 150, and quickly respond to new B2B
needs anywhere in the world through the new global EDI support center.

The project is discussed in detail in "How Wyeth Upgraded Its B2B Operations
To Support a Global ERP Strategy," a Forrester Research case study authored by
analyst Ken Vollmer with Alex Cullen and Matt Czarnecki. The full case study
is available at http://www.seeburger.com/fileadmin/com/pdf/Wyeth09.pdf

Wyeth launched a search for a new EDI solution to link directly to a new
single-instance SAP ERP system that it rolled out to replace multiple globally
distributed J.D. Edwards installations. The company selected SEEBURGER over
four other B2B gateway providers because of factors including SEEBURGER's
ability to support multi-tenancy within a single instance of the software as
well as store parameters at the individual partner level. Multi-tenancy was
essential because of Wyeth's need to segregate data for its different lines of
business, while SEEBURGER's process mapping strategy supported Wyeth's goal of
consolidating translation maps.

Wyeth's experience showcases the potential of newer EDI platforms to provide
increased business agility, simplify use and support, and equip enterprises
with new functionality and integration capabilities through service-oriented
architecture (SOA) and business process management (BPM) capabilities,
according to Forrester.
