Proforma IdeaPress Gains Edge with Ariba Discovery

For years, Pratt Pande watched as companies moved the manufacturing of products that his Atlanta-based business could produce overseas to take advantage of favorable exchange rates and lower labor costs. Now, he's seeing things come back. His company, Proforma IdeaPress, a leading provider of promotional products, printing services, business documents and e-commerce solutions, recently won over $500,000 in new business that had previously been awarded to a foreign competitor. And the best part is, he didn't have to go looking for it. It came to him through Ariba Discovery, the premier service for matching business buyers and sellers globally delivered by Ariba Inc.
