| Redwood City,- June 15th, 2006 - Tectura® Channel Products, a division of Tectura, today announced it will launch ReQlogic™ using Microsoft SQL Server 2005, earning the company Front Runner status from Microsoft Corp. ReQlogic in combination with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 helps customers improve the efficiency and reduce the costs of their procurement and employee expense reporting cycles. ReQlogic does this by eliminating paper-based and manual processes and offering self service to users across the enterprise. Users can Punch-out to multiple vendor websites to source items, submit requisitions for approval real-time and have these automatically routed based on predefined parameters in the workflow engine. Once approved, requisitions and expense reports automatically create purchase orders and accounts payable vouchers respectively, in the backend application, avoiding the timely and error prone re-keying of transactions. SQL Server 2005 is the next-generation data management and analysis software that will deliver increased scalability, availability and security to enterprise data and analytical applications while making them easier to create, deploy, and manage. "Microsoft has always been committed to the success of our broad ISV partner community and will continue to rely heavily on that community to drive innovative solutions to market," said Pradeep Rathinam, general manager of U.S. ISV Strategy in the U.S. Partner Group at Microsoft. "The Front Runner program was designed to provide our partners with the best development environment possible and give them the technical and marketing tools they need to be successful over the long term."
Microsoft wanted to ensure that ISVs had access to a full host of benefits to enable them to bring best-of-breed solutions to market more quickly and effectively. Giving ISVs the resources they need to fast-track the development of these applications enables customers to start taking advantage of the increased scalability, availability and security of the application built on top of SQL Server 2005 almost immediately, increasing their company’s productivity.
"Tectura Channel Products is excited to support SQL Server 2005 with ReQlogic because it’s a great platform and a great leap forward," said Tim Jad, ReQlogic Product Manager with Tectura. "Achieving Front Runner status enables us to deliver applications to clients within the same timeframe as the launch of SQL Server 2005. As a result of the solution we have developed, we are uniquely positioned to help our clients get the most from their technology investment."
ReQlogic automates critical processes such as requisition approvals and purchase order creation, freeing up purchasing agents to do more strategic work in building vendor relationships, engaging in complex negotiations and strategic sourcing.
