13D filed after close. Looks like Wand partners holding approx 50%. Although 13D is very confusing with the cross ownership.

IMA Introduces New E-Business Vision With the Introduction of Demand Chain Management IMA Pioneers Solutions That Redefine CRM, eCRM and CTI Marketplaces SHELTON, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 19, 1999--IMA (NASDAQ:IMAA - news), a leading global provider of synchronized, multi-channel e-business solutions, today announced a revolutionary new process for supporting the huge inflow of demand that has shifted from more traditional distribution channels onto the Internet. IMA's vision, termed Demand Chain Management (DCM), will be a suite of technology solutions to enable businesses to create demand, manage demand, and respond to demand in a highly effective manner. Demand Chain Management takes the core values of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) strategy to a new level by applying new e-commerce technologies that are rapidly overtaking today's business world. DCM looks at the bigger picture - beyond traditional CRM response - and addresses how demand and delivery channels are changing as technology redefines the relationship between the supplier and the customer. ''The Internet has revolutionized the way businesses communicate with their customers,'' said Al Subbloie, IMA's President and CEO. ''Demand Chain Management allows companies to successfully blend all communication methods, manage diverse customer interactions, and respond to requests in an efficient, customer-centric manner.'' ''IMA is announcing a revolutionary answer to business problems in the three major customer-facing markets, CRM, eCRM, and CTI middleware,'' Subbloie continued. ''The Web is forcing a major requirement shift for the enterprise towards a new breed of architecture designed for channel synchronization and demand normalization anywhere in the customer demand chain. Demand Chain Management is the specific value-added vision that brings all of the fragmentation together in a common business layer, putting the customer's demand in the center of a powerful new open architecture.'' Currently two major shortcomings exist in the CRM and eCRM software being offered to businesses. CRM solutions are not designed from the customer's point of view, and are simply a wide collection of predefined data models and processes that assist company personnel in communicating with customers. Existing eCRM software has the same design flaw as its predecessor, which is compounded by the wide variety of partial, proprietary solutions offered by various vendors. As a result, the actual demands of customers are not reflected appropriately nor made persistent in the system, and there is inconsistency in the way the business manages what really matters, their customers' requests for products and services any time, from anywhere, over any channel. Traditional CRM and CTI software have attempted to bring synergy between voice and the web, but have failed to do so. These middleware solutions remain ''transaction-centric'', with little ability for demand to persist as a data component in a chain of events defined by a common set of business rules anywhere in the enterprise. While many companies are creating loose partnerships or merging, solutions from these fragmented players creates large inefficiencies for the enterprise because of hard wired integration of proprietary or even multiple rules engines, along with overlapping legacy architectures. IMA's Demand Chain Management product suite will allow businesses to easily respond to consumers in a rapid and personalized manner. It not only generates demand, but automatically routes the requests (e-mail, voice, fax, chatroom, etc.) to the appropriate personnel, and can even employ a highly automated yet personalized response mechanism. To accomplish this, IMA has created the Industry's first object-oriented, Java-centric component architecture for e-business application development. This true OO component architecture offers n-tiered scalability and promotes a best-of-breed solution through re-useable e-business components, such as a rules engine, personalization, web development and legacy integration. While IMA is shifting its business focus, the company remains committed to supporting its CRM and CTI customers across the globe. ''We will continue to offer the same level of service and support that we always have. And since our new DCM offerings will be built on open industry standard architecture, all of our EDGE customers will be able to use our new offerings to extend their current EDGE applications across their entire enterprise system,'' Subbloie added. ''Our new technology provides both existing and new clients the opportunity to continue the use of existing applications while adding greatly enhanced enterprise functionality across the full demand chain. IMA is the only player in the market today with a vision that addresses all the technologies which make up the Demand Chain - e-commerce, business intelligence and eCRM - by focusing its products and services on this new relationship between the buyers and sellers. About IMA IMA provides synchronized, multi-channel e-business solutions, enabling businesses to create market demand, manage that demand, and then respond to it in the most effective manner with world-class customer interaction software solutions. Gartner Group ranks IMA as a leader in customer service and support systems and as a visionary in sales applications. Over 400 global organizations including Bose Corp., Humana, ICT Group, Lloyds TSB, Texas Utilities, U.S. Cellular Corp. and Xerox depend on IMA products and services to help grow their business through the process of acquiring and retaining customers. IMA has headquarters in Shelton, Connecticut and offices and representatives worldwide.

Okay, okay, okay....now all the hype is gone, the stock has leveled/based at the 4-5 area for apporoximately 1 month. I'm banking on a new hype run soon for IMAA... This sucker is full of shorts just dying to for it to go lower, but if news, hype or upgrades hit the street this stock will soar once again. Just remember when the hype started: Internet incubator CMGI has quietly invested in a version of the reverse auction ecommerce idea that has made Priceline.com famous, by taking a 20% stake in tiny Information Management Associates majority owned sub, buyingedge.com. Buyingedge.com buyingedge.com launched in June imaedge.com , provides consumers and merchants with an efficient way of conducting business over the Internet. Its personalized, secure marketplace creates a buyer centric model that benefits both consumer and merchant. It enables registered members to submit requests for desired products to merchants who respond to the buyer and then compete for the sale. I bought some today, under the impression that IMAA is bound to have a rally sooner than later! Any other thoughts out there? Lance

IMA Announces Its Internet Component Architecture -iCA-, the Customer Relationship Industry's First and Only Open, Object-Oriented, Component-Based Architecture BusinessWire, Friday, October 22, 1999 at 08:34 Shelton, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 22, 1999-- "Future-Proof " iCA Framework Speeds Development And Implementation Of Customer-Centric CRM, eCRM, And CTI Applications IMA (NASDAQ:IMAA) a leading global provider of synchronized, multi-channel e-business solutions, today unveiled its innovative new technology platform, the internet Component Architecture (iCA), which will be used as the framework for the Company's recently announced Demand Chain Management (DCM) offerings. iCA is the industry's "first and only" open object-oriented (OO) Java-centric component software architecture specifically designed to support CRM, eCRM and CTI application development. This true OO component architecture offers n-tiered scalability and promotes best of breed solutions through re-useable e-business components such as a robust open-rules engine, personalization services, interactive web development, content development, self-service, and legacy integration. Developed over the past two years, iCA fully supports IMA's vision of demand chain management, by "DCM enabling" all existing IMA EDGE desktop and CTI products, as well as most other industry leading solutions in the CRM and eCRM market. "The industry cannot wait the 2-3 years that industry analysts believe it will take for a single company to deliver a complete CRM and eCRM suite of solutions," said Al Subbloie, President and CEO of IMA. "Overwhelming Web use by consumers is challenging businesses everywhere. An industry consolidator is needed to overcome the existing proprietary environment and embark on a ground-up technology rewrite to provide a consistent DCM solution across all channels in an n-tiered environment. iCA is this consolidator." Unprecedented increases in Web traffic is forcing companies to implement some demand processing on third-party web sites. Furthermore current architectures are unable to integrate solutions from a variety of vendors, and therefore cannot provide an "end-to-end" solution. IMA's iCA is a unique solution that resolves most of these industry problems. As an open architecture, iCA fully supports the extension of any third-party technologies quickly, while exposing all integration layers to the architecture. This allows companies to use any third-party product they desire, or replace it with an internal product, without affecting the rest of the architecture. Since iCA acts as a buffer for applications and the operating system, businesses will be able to migrate their solutions onto various standards, such as Sun's Java and Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) and the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) from the Object Management Group (OMG), and Microsoft Corporation's COM/DCOM. This allows companies to plan for the future without the risk of obsolescence, and dramatically speed up the delivery timeframe of new components. "By deliberately building iCA as a Java-component architecture based on a formal object model, IMA is providing a strong, standards-based foundation for all of its components. The business components built on the iCA are protected from technology obsolescence while benefiting from a high degree of reuse and increased quality," said Daniel Riscalla, VP Engineering at IMA and chairman of the Enterprise Customer Interaction Systems (ECIS) Special Interest Group (SIG) of the OMG. "Since iCA was designed specifically for customer interaction support, it can be used to construct full web and telephony channel enabled CRM, and eCRM solutions by leveraging a series of best-of-breed third party vendor and in-house solutions." IMA was aided in their transition to enterprise component technologies by Genesis Development(R) Corporation of West Chester, PA (http://www.gendev.com). Working exclusively in large-scale distributed object technology since 1987, Genesis has lent its extensive expertise to IMA's development process to build this new leading-edge architecture. "IMA's commitment to iCA was evidenced through the extensive allocation of key technical and management resources," noted Jason Matthews, President/CEO of Genesis. "Working with Genesis' senior architects, IMA has literally 'future-proofed' their architecture through a strategic investment in enterprise component frameworks that are reusable across many applications for years to come." About IMA IMA provides synchronized, multi-channel e-business solutions, enabling businesses to create market demand, manage that demand, and then respond to it in the most effective manner with world-class customer interaction software solutions.
