Management Dynamics Expands Asia Pacific Operations

Leading global trade management provider continues strategic expansion, appoints key business development executive

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ, January 25, 2007 -- Management Dynamics, Inc., a leading provider of Global Trade Management (GTM) solutions, has today announced an expansion of its operations in Asia Pacific. This addition follows the build out of sales and operational units in Europe and India, designed to meet the demands of its growing Asian customer base. Through this international expansion, Management Dynamics underlines its GTM market leadership in supporting mission-critical compliance, logistics and supply chain management solutions for over 13,000 users worldwide.

“Asia Pacific is unquestionably the focus of world trade attention with unprecedented rates of inward investment and growth in volume of exports expected to accelerate over the next five years. As companies look for ways to minimize the cost and risk involved in sourcing, manufacturing, distributing and selling their products in these markets, instant access to the software applications and resources we provide is an invaluable asset in their decision-making process,” said Raymond Yuen, Director, Management Dynamics. “Opening an office in the region is the logical next step for Management Dynamics, and we look forward to helping our customers make better-informed decisions in this challenging but exciting trading environment.”

At the same time, Management Dynamics has appointed Paul Windfield as Managing Director Asia Pacific, to oversee the launch and sales development strategy for the company’s operations in the region. A highly experienced business development executive, Windfield joins Management Dynamics with an impressive pedigree in international shipping, logistics and technology, including 26 years with P&O Nedlloyd Container Line, where he was a member of the Board as Director responsible for Sales globally. During his career operating in a variety of different international postings, Windfield helped PONL to achieve substantial revenue growth and service delivery expansion across its global shipping lanes serving Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia and Australasia, developing a range of internal and external sales programs and improvement strategies, successfully implementing new technology and Ecommerce services, and managing a combined sales force of approximately 1,500 personnel worldwide.

Commenting on his appointment, Paul Windfield stated, “Operating in Asia requires considerable investment in terms of establishing personal relationships, building a network of local partnerships and understanding the particular business and cultural practices of the countries concerned. Management Dynamics has already done this successfully for a number of years, and I am delighted to have been given the opportunity to leverage my history and knowledge of Asia Pacific commerce to help them take the company forward in this region. I’m also very fortunate to be joining an organization with a compelling sales proposition in a high growth market sector, supported by some of the strongest customer references any sales executive could ask for.”

For over 17 years, Management Dynamics has focused on helping customers dramatically improve the performance of their global trading operations. Today, Management Dynamics is a leading provider of on-demand solutions for strategic sourcing, import/export compliance, supply chain visibility, logistics contract management, supplier collaboration, supply chain analytics and trade finance.
