Lawson Software Enters Partner Agreement with Terna

Agreement signals expansion of Lawson’s indirect sales channel in Europe

HILDEN, Germany (November 27, 2006) – Lawson Software, a global provider of enterprise software applications, today announced a partnership with the Terna GmbH Business Software Center, which has its headquarters in Innsbruck, for the sale and implementation of Lawson M3 (formerly Movex) in the DACH region (Germany, Austria and Switzerland). Lawson merged with the former Intentia International AB in April 2006.

This agreement indicates another step in the development of Lawson’s channel strategy and its plans for growth in geographically-strategic regions. With this expanded network of partners, Lawson will be able to offer customers additional choice, resources and skills.

“With the addition of Terna GmbH as a sales and integration partner, we have taken an important step toward growth in central Europe, said Maria Neustifter, manager of Lawson alliances and channels in central Europe. “We are impressed by Terna’s Lawson M3 product knowledge and vast expertise in Lawson’s chosen markets, including food and beverage, distribution, fashion and asset-intensive industries.

Terna is an expert in the analysis and optimization of business processes for companies in the mid-market. Terna will market the full Lawson M3 product suite for companies in industries that make, move and maintain products.

“As business consultants, we have been watching the ERP market for many years, said Peter Bereiter, managing director of Terna GmbH. “We are convinced that business solutions that are built on open standards, providing industry-specific functionality and lowest total cost of ownership attract typically mid-market companies. In addition, such resource-constrained organizations are looking for partners that have a similar company culture and that are simple to do business with.
