Cisco Signs Exclusive Pact with Auto-xchange, a Ford/Oracle Joint Venture

- Ford Motor Company, Oracle Corporation and Cisco Systems, Inc. announced today that Cisco will become an equity partner in auto-xchange, an online automotive exchange, to handle Ford's $300 billion automotive supply chain with suppliers, dealers and consumers. In this exclusive agreement, Cisco will bring secure network management to auto-xchange. In addition to handling Ford's transaction volume, auto-xchange is actively recruiting other automotive companies to utilize this massive online business transaction environment to gain purchasing efficiency and economy of scale.

For its part, Cisco will provide a "fast forward" auto-exchange kit to Ford's 30,000 suppliers. The kit will enable suppliers to gain immediate, secure access to auto-xchange and begin transacting business when the site is fully operational later next month. Cisco will also bring expertise gained by implementing its own multi-billion-dollar Internet supply chain. For the past six years, Cisco has worked aggressively to develop a collaborative relationship for manufacturing, product development and order management with its own suppliers. As a result production lead times have been cut in half and 60 percent of its product volume is now shipped through direct fulfillment.
