a leading provider of collaborative, online supply chain solutions
today announced that 4 business units of GE Capital, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of General Electric Company (NYSE: GE), will utilize
the noosh.com service on an enterprise-wide basis for print procurement

to the data they need. The collaboration between members of the
supply chain results in improved accountability and a dramatic reduction
in time and costs associated with the production of enterprise communications.
In addition, noosh.com enables companies to make better business
decisions by providing a custom management analyst reporting capability.
GE Capital started using noosh.com in April, 2000 and to date, 76
of their print suppliers have signed user agreements to utilize
the service, including companies such as: Atlantic Envelope Company,
First Impressions, W.E. Andrews, and Westvaco Corporation's Envelope
Division. In addition, 85 corporate buyers and procurement executives
within GE Capital have been trained and granted accounts on noosh.com.
"Part of our challenge to be competitive is to continually find
processes to reduce indirect costs. By implementing noosh.com, we
have greater access to the critical data needed to manage the entire
procurement process more efficiently," Jerome C. Marcus, managing
director, GE Equity.
"Working with a global leader such as GE Capital is positively impacting
how we do business and helps us provide a better service for our
customers," said Ofer Ben-Shachar, chairman and CEO, Noosh, Inc.
