PR Newswire (US)
SSA Global to Resell Synapsis' EMARS Environmental Compliance
Solution SPRING HOUSE, Pa., April 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Synapsis
Technology, Inc., a provider of environmental compliance and
Product Lifecycle Intelligence(TM) solutions, today announced that
it has formed a strategic partnership with SSA Global(TM)
(NASDAQ:SSAG), a leading global provider of enterprise business
software and services. Through this agreement, SSA Global will
resell Synapsis' patent-pending Environmental Material Aggregation
and Reporting System (EMARS(TM)). Manufacturers and their
suppliers, especially in the electronics and automotive industries,
are continually facing new industry regulations in which they must
comply in order to do business in certain countries. Environmental
regulations such as the ELV (European End of Life Vehicle), RoHS
(Restrictions on the use of certain Hazardous Substances) and WEEE
(Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) directives are just a
few examples. The risk of non-compliance can range from potential
fines to being completely shut out of key markets and the lack of
visibility to compliance information can lead to increased costs
and excessive product redesign costs. EMARS is Synapsis'
off-the-shelf solution that offers a complete set of functionality
to analyze and track compliance at the substance, material, part
and product level and efficiently manage the data collection and
reporting process. EMARS maximizes the visibility of compliance
information to all stages of the product lifecycle and therefore
minimizes the risk and cost associated with non-compliance. Cory
Eaves, SSA Global's chief technology officer said, "Our customers
are facing ever growing compliance challenges and through this
partnership with Synapsis we can now offer a solution to help our
customers meet the requirements of RoHS, WEEE and similar
environmental directives being developed around the globe." "With
thousands of active customers around the world many of which are in
the automotive and electronics industries, this relationship with
SSA Global will help extend our reach to a much larger group of
companies," said Tim Irvine, vice president, Sales & Marketing
at Synapsis. "SSA Global's customers will now have access to a
fully integrated compliance solution to address the variety of
challenges with existing environmental regulations and provide a
framework to stay ahead of future regulations." About Synapsis
