Momentum continues to Build: GL&SCS Recognizes Baxter as Outstanding Supply Chain Partner

Customer’s Rave - Baxter Solutions Significantly Improve Efficiency, Customer Service and Overall Supply Chain Performance

Austin, Texas - July 20, 2005 - Baxter Planning Systems (www.bybaxter.com ), the premier provider of aftermarket parts planning solutions, today announced that it has received yet another industry award highlighting the value Baxter solutions bring to customer supply chains and overall business. Global Logistics & Supply Chain Strategies Magazine , the premiere publication for executives at the highest levels of supply chain management, recognized Baxter, for the second consecutive year, as one of its “100 Great Supply Chain Partners.” This award comes on the heals of Baxter’s Chief Executive Officer, Greg Baxter, being named as one of Supply & Demand Chain Executive Magazine’s 2005 “Pros to Know.”

“Baxter is honored to receive such prestigious recognition from its clients, business partners and industry-leading publications like GL&SCS for our dedication to helping our client’s grow and succeed,” said Greg Baxter, chief executive officer for Baxter. “The company is committed to creating solutions that help the client meet and exceed their business goals in the most efficient way possible.”

The “100 Great Supply Chain Partners List” honors vendors that receive the most nominations from clients and/or partners for delivering technology, logistics, transportation or consulting solutions, which make a significant impact on a company’s supply chain efficiency. The list is the result of a 6-month poll to find companies not only deserving of the recognition, but also to be held up as an example for others in the industry.
