Press Release: London, March 2007

Cartesis, specialist in Finance and Performance Management software, and Metapraxis, a provider of Visualisation and Forecast Risk Management consulting services, announce the signing of a Cartesis Consulting Partner agreement to collaborate in providing advanced performance management solutions to UK businesses.

This new alliance will focus on helping leading UK companies to benefit from financial web analytics and intelligent graphical analysis.

Cartesis customers can benefit from the good fit of experienced consulting partners who understand the performance management environment.

"Our objective in the UK is to build solid partnerships with leading consultancies like Metapraxis, which has highly skilled and experienced professionals who can work with us to deliver successful analytic implementations", commented David Gray, Cartesis’ UK Country Manager. "Metapraxis has an excellent and long-standing reputation as one of the leading management information specialist consulting companies. This relationship offers exciting opportunities for both companies and for their customers."
