Blueshield of California Launches Puridiom 3.0

Released on = August 1, 2005, 1:50 pm

Press Release Author = TSA Inc.

Industry = Software

Press Release Summary = Puridiom 3.0 offers new self-service hostable enabled procurement solution.

Press Release Body = Mechanicsburg, PA August 1, 2005 -- Procurement solution provider TSA (Technical Services Associates) today announced that Blueshield of California launched Puridiom 3.0, becoming another TSA (Technical Services Associates) client to roll out the hosted, 100% web-based procurement solution.

Blueshield of CA Vice President and Controller, Emmalee Noble, stated “The Executive Council recently approved two new work practice changes that will save the company nearly $500,000 annually. These changes will impact how we order office supplies and how we manage our cell phone costs.”

Blueshield of CA selected the web-based Puridiom solution to control purchases using the Catalog Punch-out, particularly with Office Max. According to their purchase contract, Blueshield of CA negotiated substantial discounts in exchange for pooling
company-wide purchases from approximately 300 approved office supply items. Funneling their purchases to an approved set of office items merited the savings discount.

Puridiom’s advantage is the ease of access and intuitiveness of the application. End-Users simply select their items from the Office Max On-Line Catalog and ‘check out’ their items back into Puridiom. Puridiom then uses cxml technology to place the
order with the supplier instantly with the items delivered the next day.

TSA (http://www.puridiom.com) said Puridiom 3.0 is the first complete 100% web-based Req-to-Check solution that redefines outsourced procurement solutions. Al Jacobs, VP of Operations, states, "Increasingly, more and more companies across the world are opting to outsource purchasing functions to enhance productivity. Puridiom 3.0 empowers companies to achieve strategic procurement goals through enabling self-service procurement. Our clients demand flexible solutions and to that end, Puridiom 3.0 is available in hosted and non-hosted versions."

"The end result is that Puridiom clients have attained a lot of benefits including reduced prices paid for goods and services, cut sourcing and procurement cycles by half and reduced procurement administration and procurement automation costs", says Jacobs.

TSA, Inc., is a Mechanicsburg, PA Procurement Solution Provider, featuring software solutions, procurement consulting services, hosted solutions, technical support and Help Desk Services.
