Oracle and E2open Simplify Logistics Connectivity

E2open Logistics Network Now Available as the Connectivity Solution for
Oracle(R) Transportation Management

REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. and FOSTER CITY, Calif., Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle
and E2open announced today that E2open Logistics Network (ELN) is now
available as an integrated connectivity solution for Oracle Transportation
Management, which simplifies the effort of establishing electronic integration
between shippers, transportation carriers, and logistics service providers.

Electronic connectivity enables the advantages of timely and accurate
information, lower transaction costs, and unlimited scalability. However,
traditional approaches to implementing and maintaining integrations can be
expensive and time consuming due to the myriad of technologies and formats,
and the global nature of today's transportation and logistics.

As a business process network specifically designed for global transportation
and logistics processes, ELN offers several unique capabilities, including
pre-built integrations with Oracle Transportation Management, a network of
existing (reusable) connections to logistics-related trading partners, support
for nearly all trading partner integration methods, and advanced self-service
Integration-as-a-Service (IaaS) tools.

"Customers have been asking us for a simplified way to establish electronic
connectivity between Oracle Transportation Management and their transportation
trading partners," said Derek Gittoes, Vice President, Logistics Product
Strategy for Oracle. "By combining leading connectivity and transportation
management capabilities, ELN gives Oracle Transportation Management customers
a compelling alternative to help reduce their integration timeframes and
costs."

ELN offers a fast and cost-effective integration approach because it does not
require any additional customer investment beyond Oracle Transportation
Management and ELN and it allows trading partners to use their preexisting
integration technologies. Alternatively, if a trading partner does not have a
preexisting integration capability, ELN provides one at no extra cost. In
addition, the reuse of ELN's existing connections and standard maps, as well
as its self-service IaaS tools, significantly reduce on-boarding work,
enabling trading partners to be integrated in as little as one to three weeks.

"Transportation processes are inherently network-centric, involving the
exchange of information between many external parties, including carriers,
suppliers, customers, and logistics service providers," said Adrian Gonzalez,
Director of Logistics Viewpoints at ARC Advisory Group. "Establishing and
maintaining connectivity with a dynamic set of trading partners is an integral
component of a transportation management system, but when evaluating
solutions, many companies fail to consider the time, cost, and resources
required to enable and manage a connectivity network. By delivering a
transportation trading partner network via ELN, Oracle and E2open are enabling
customers to eliminate a major obstacle to gaining the benefits quickly from a
transportation management system."

ELN's IaaS model provides a simple and predictable cost model with annual
fixed-price fees ranging between $2,000 and $3,500 per connection--depending
on the total number of connections--and a one-time fixed-price on-boarding fee
of $1,000 per connection. Prices are not dependent on transaction volume. For
many companies, ELN offers a significantly lower total cost of ownership
compared to traditional integration approaches.

"We are excited to team with Oracle to dramatically simplify connectivity for
Oracle Transportation Management customers compared to traditional
approaches," said Mark Woodward, CEO of E2open. "Our business process-centric
approach, combined with our SaaS-based delivery of integration capabilities,
reduces the time and cost necessary to achieve the benefits of automating
logistics-related processes."

ELN is available now to Oracle Transportation Management customers.
