Axway Wins Second HDMA iBusiness Solution Award

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Axway, Inc. today announced that the Healthcare Distribution Management Association (HDMA) has selected Axway's technology as the winning solution provider of the iBusiness Solution Award for the second year in a row. The company's Synchrony™ ePedigree solution was recognized for its innovative approach to securing the integrity of the pharmaceutical supply chain. Last year, Axway's Synchrony™ CSOS (Controlled Substance Ordering System) won the award.

Electronic pedigree technology is a critical solution in preventing counterfeit drugs from entering the healthcare supply chain. Axway's Synchrony ePedigree is the only technology on the market that leverages the customer's existing e-commerce gateway system to manage electronic pedigrees, thus reducing overall complexity. The solution also positions the customer for compliance with future product safety requirements, including California's pedigree regulations and proposed item-level track-and-trace requirements.

"This is a great honor to have the HDMA recognize Axway's solutions for two years in a row," said Paul Fowler, Axway's vice president of healthcare strategies. "We're dedicated to providing our customers with solutions that are effective, efficient and practical. Gaining this prestigious industry recognition from HDMA validates our achievements in providing long-term solutions and helping our customers look beyond today's issues."

Synchrony ePedigree is offered as a standalone solution or as part of Axway's Synchrony Healthcare Compliance Suite and Synchrony Supply Chain Integrity Suite. Also, Axway recently announced that the solution earned certification for compliance by EPCglobal Inc™, which ensures interoperability within the overall architecture of the Electronic Product Code™ Network.

The HDMA announced winners of the annual awards at its Distribution Management Conference & Expo on Tuesday, June 12, 2007. The awards recognize HDMA members that have taken the lead in advancing new technologies to work in the healthcare industry. iBusiness Solutions range from innovations of existing systems and business processes to unique implementations of cutting-edge technologies with revolutionary design.
