EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ, April 21, 2010 — Management Dynamics, a leading provider of Global Trade Management (GTM) solutions, today announced that Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) implemented its Export Compliance solution to automate and maintain compliance with international export regulations.

The enterprise-class on-demand solution has enabled Infineon to streamline its process for license determination and sanctioned party screening across its high volume, highly complex supply chain.

Screening over 10,000 daily transactions across 12,000 customers worldwide, Infineon needed a robust and scalable solution to automate compliance with all export regulations for shipping products to foreign countries, as well as the measures to ensure compliance with national and international anti-terrorism regulations.

The company required vendor experience in automated license determination for exports out of multiple countries while adhering to and providing automated US re-export license decisions, especially when exporting dual-use products. Infineon selected Management Dynamics’ Export Compliance solution for its accuracy in resolving trade compliance issues, industry leading Global Trade Content, and scalability.

“The semiconductor industry is global and among the most dynamic industries in the world. Infineon strives to be the most responsive partner for its customers’ needs, while at the same time ensuring compliance with national and international export regulations and sanction programs,” said Wolfgang Keichel, Vice President, Information Technology for Supply Chain Management at Infineon Technologies AG. “Management Dynamics met the complex needs of Infineon in a very efficient and professional way.”

Fully integrated into Infineon’s SAP order management system across all business units, the Export Compliance solution centralizes and manages its international transaction management process including restricted party screening (RPS), export license determination and tracking. Audit trails and complete management reporting provide Infineon with a compliant process that adheres to US, European and Asian government regulations and reduces risks and costs associated with global trade.

In addition to Trade Export, Infineon implemented Management Dynamics’ End-Use Manager, an on-demand solution that generates customized end-use surveys for parties involved in any cross-border transaction, to help its compliance team to comprehensively survey and collect end-use statements from customers, suppliers and employees.

“Many multinational corporations are increasingly exporting to more countries, which comes with greater responsibility to ensure that complex export requirements are met, in particular for exporters of controlled technologies,” said Jim Preuninger, CEO of Management Dynamics. “We are delighted that Infineon Technologies selected our solutions to help manage export compliance and we welcome them into our growing number of customers with operations focused in Europe.”

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ, January 20, 2010 — Management Dynamics, a leading provider of Global Trade Management solutions, today announced the release of End-Use Manager, an on-demand solution that generates end-use surveys for parties involved in any cross-border transaction.

The new solution allows a trade compliance team to comprehensively survey and collect end-use statements from customers, suppliers and employees, establishing a standardized process for managing and ensuring compliance with international trade regulations.

“Companies that manufacture and export licensable goods must ensure that their customer and the intended end-use are approved and in compliance with export regulations.  However, today this is largely a manual process that is difficult to administer, especially across a global enterprise,” said Adrienne Braumiller, Partner, Braumiller Schulz LLP.

“Management Dynamics’ End-Use Manager provides companies with the tools necessary to ensure that their shipments are delivered to the approved trade party and destined for friendly end-use.”

End-Use Manager can be flexibly deployed as a Web-based portal across any global enterprise and configured to meet the specific requirements of different business units.  Surveys can be developed by business unit, transaction type, origin country and destination country, and populated with a pre-configured list of questions.  In addition, all parties to the transaction are screened against the major sanctioned party lists.

Management Dynamics’ End-Use Manager offers the following key capabilities for companies to simplify trade compliance around product use and related professional services:

• Enterprise Deployment – Implement an end-use process by geography, business unit, or product family with a flexible multi-organization deployment model and manage users with role-based security.
• Survey Configuration – Develop a comprehensive repository of questions and manage assignment rules to dynamically assemble a complete survey for end-use statements by customers, vendors and employees.
• Restricted Party & Critical Country Screening – Automatically screen each party to the transaction against a comprehensive list of restricted parties and embargoed countries.
• Generate & Distribute End Use Statements – Dynamically generate end-use statements based on all associated questions as well as the results of Critical Country and Restricted Party Screening in a PDF format for easy distribution via email.
• Review Audit Trail – Audit each transaction with complete visibility to the user and all survey questions and answers.

“Today many companies rely on an inconsistent and, often inaccurate, manual process to administer end-use surveys to determine if the intended use of their shipped goods is in compliance with export controls,” said Nathan Pieri, SVP Marketing & Product Management, Management Dynamics, Inc.

“Our new End-Use Manager product makes it possible to manage the process centrally and distribute via a simple web-based solution for employees that must interact with customers, suppliers and contractors.”

We found the ideal solution with Management Dynamics,” said Peter Perley, COO, Fiesta Gas Grills.
