Maybe you should read what I wrote before posting comments on my blog. Everything I stated was 100% fact from a business wire press release from Ariba or clearly defined as my opinion only.

FACT: Ariba issued a press release regarding BCBS NJ

FACT: CMSI was very proud of their BCBS client portfolio and successfully leveraged it in their favor.

FACT: The press release does not explicitly state whether sourcing was part of the deployment and I very clearly said that. It is logical to assume the Ariba sales rep would like to expand the deployment over time regardless of whether this location has eSourcing now or not.

Nothing else was stated, despite your misinterpretation, and this post was not about Ariba or Procuri, specifically. It was about how press releases are used and even how we do it.

We appreciate your patronage at ESF, thank you drive through.

Not sure where you got your information, but it was wrong. BCBS of NJ was looking for a eProcurement application. As a result, Procuri wasn’t even part of the equation.

Please get you acts straight before blogging.
