Spend Controls and Visibility Add Significant Value to e-Procurement Solutions to Maximize Budget Dollars and Potential Savings

Reston, VA and Horsham, PA, February 28, 2008, TakeCharge Technologies, the smart spend savings solution, and eSchoolMall, the leading provider of online procurement solutions for schools, today announced a value-added partnership that will positively alter the spend and procurement world. TakeCharge enables all types of entities to gain control of their spend and maximize savings opportunities. eSchoolMall helps these same constituencies save time and money in their purchasing and sourcing processes.

Together, TakeCharge Technologies and eSchoolMall seamlessly manage the entire spend lifecycle, from vendor management and requisitioning through to payment and management of spend. “The eSchoolMall and TakeCharge partnership provides a comprehensive view of the overall purchasing and payment process along with powerful governance, analysis and compliance capabilities,” said Debbie Hamel, President and CEO of TakeCharge Technologies. “Our solution sets merge nicely for the benefit of our customers and their bottom line.”

“Our two companies saw that this complementary technology could really provide benefit,” said Dan Corazzi, President of eSchoolMall. “Both companies bring a service-oriented and customer-focused methodology to the partnership that is also very complementary.”

Procurement data will drive spend management decision-making which, in turn, will drive procurement decisions. Several large public sector agencies have served in an advisory role in the benefit definition process. This input has been invaluable in defining the relationship between TakeCharge Technologies and eSchoolMall.
