Z man, here is more great news. Another pact with a multi-billion b2b service provider. At any angle, I see ELCO as a 2 billion company, 500 millions market cap is a joke!

ELCOM: elcom.com and Dun & Bradstreet establish a foundation for joint marketing and co-operation
MAR 23, 2000, M2 Communications - elcom.com and Dun & Bradstreet UK today announced that it had entered into an agreement whereby both parties will establish a foundation for a number of joint marketing initiatives. These will include joint seminars providing the foundation for attendees to better understand why PECOS and eProcurement should be the 1st step towards eBusiness as well as understanding why the D&B's UN/SPSC classification coding helps suppliers rationalise their product catalogue information to this world-wide standard.
Tim Murphy, managing director of Dun & Bradstreet UK stated, "We are excited to work with elcom.com as an eBusiness partner and will continue to position Dun & Bradstreet for the emerging eBusiness marketplace. This initiative aims to help companies to re-evaluate the way they currently conduct their business practises. eProcurement should be the 1st step any company considers if they want to move towards an eBusiness environment and elcom.com's remotely hosted procurement manager, PECOS, is definitely a front runner in this space".
Michael Templeman, managing director of elcom.com stated, "In aligning ourselves with Dun & Bradstreet UK, we are bringing to the business community the benefits of D&B's expertise and standards in procurement as well as PECOS Internet Procurement Manager. Together this will greatly assist organisations in streamlining their business practises and add significant value to their overall profitability.
