Sage ERP X3 [http://www.sageerpx3.com] helps customers respond to European REACH regulation through Verteego alliance
Sage has reinforced its ability to address its customers' environmental compliance needs through a global alliance with software vendor Verteego [http://www.verteego.com/en ]. Sage ERP X3 is now connected to Verteego's online REACH traceability platform, a solution targeted at retailers and manufacturers to help ensure traceability of chemicals down their supply chain and avoid supply chain disruptions. The new connected service demonstrates how hybrid models using on-premise software and the Cloud, can maximize customer benefits. With the development of this new connector, Sage has shown it can react quickly to the evolving and demanding environmental requirements of European mid-market companies.
Thanks to this unique combination of software, retailers and manufacturers can now organize and ensure the traceability of chemicals down their supply chain, collect REACH data from their suppliers, and provide their customers with reliable REACH reports. The solution maximizes Sage ERP X3's capabilities, while Verteego ensures compliance with REACH traceability obligations.
Benoit Gruber, VP Product Marketing & Alliances for Sage ERP X3 commented, "Sage has chosen to partner Verteego in the development of specialized connected services to Sage ERP X3 to help its customers meet these new challenges. REACH compliance is the first stage of this process with the next being energy management. Our manufacturing and retail customers need a simple, yet powerful chemical supply chain solution to comply with REACH both effectively and efficiently. We chose Verteego because of their expertise and our respective strengths in manufacturing and retail."
Jeremy Fain, Co-founder and CEO at Verteego added, "We believe Sage ERP X3 customers who are required to collate information down the supply chain will be amazed at the ease and power of the user experience enabled by this new connected service, due to the level of automation it provides.

This is key for their employees as well as consumers, as it supports engagement in responsible purchasing and environmental policy."
