Demand Solutions Met Microsoft's Highest Standard for Partner-Developed
Software Solutions

ST. LOUIS, June 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Demand Management, Inc., a global resource
for managing the supply chain for small and midsized enterprises, announced
today that its Demand Solutions(R) supply chain management software is now
Certified for Microsoft Dynamics, which signifies that the solution has met
Microsoft Corp.'s highest standard for partner-developed software. By
successfully meeting all certification requirements, Demand Solutions can now
carry the distinct Certified for Microsoft Dynamics logo.

Solutions that are Certified for Microsoft Dynamics have demonstrated
development quality and compatibility with the Microsoft Dynamics product on
which it runs by passing rigorous VeriTest software solution testing for
Microsoft Dynamics and are profiled in the Microsoft Partner Solution Profiler
tool. In addition, the Microsoft Dynamics partner must have customers who are
successfully using the certified solution and are willing to recommend it, be
enrolled in a Partner Service Plan with Microsoft, and be a Gold Certified
Partner in the Microsoft Partner Program.

Dynamics solutions that have been tested for compatibility, meet high quality
standards, and are successfully used by existing customers. This certification
represents a significant step in elevating the standard for partner-developed
software solutions for industry-specific business applications. By
highlighting these solutions, Microsoft also creates new opportunities for
partners to expand their reseller channel and to better promote their packaged
Microsoft Dynamics solution for customers. 

"By requiring both the software solution and the partner to meet our highest
standards, Microsoft is assuring customers that these certified solutions work
with their investments in Microsoft Dynamics," said Doug Kennedy, vice
