BSS Contracted to Develop Global Buying Language
VANCOUVER, April 6 /CNW/ - Burnt Sand Solutions Inc. (TSE:BRT) is pleased
to announce that it has entered into a business relationship to enhance and
support Global Buying Language (GBL) from International Productivity Solutions
Inc. of Calgary, Alberta. GBL is an Internet-based application that supports
business-to-business Electronic Commerce, recognizing the one-to-one nature of
long-term relationships between vendors and their clients. GBL software
eliminates the barriers to conducting business internationally by making
language, cultural and time differences irrelevant. The core design of the
product permits users to deal with an unlimited number of products, to an
unlimited number of buyers in any language required by either buying or
selling partner.
International Productivity Solutions has contracted Burnt Sand to add
unique application integration functionality to GBL. In addition, Burnt Sand
will be providing the GBL product as both a service and an integrated solution
along with other E-Commerce applications through the Alberta First.Com Ltd.
website.
''Development of GBL clearly takes advantage of our Electronic Commerce
focus, which includes our implementation of the Net Economy Strategy,'' stated
David Edmonds, Executive Vice President of Burnt Sand. ''Along with our
significant expertise in electronic exchange applications and E-Commerce
infrastructure solutions, we now add a true relationship management tool for
all types of business.''
''Our association with Burnt Sand Solutions greatly enhances our ability
to market GBL within an integrated E-Commerce environment. Burnt Sand's
experience in this marketplace adds significant product deployment
capabilities,'' said Marcel Jacques, President and CEO of International
