Manila & Scottsdale, Ariz. — October 6, 2009 — JDA® Software Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: JDAS) will showcase its proven solutions backed by global best practices that can help Philippine companies streamline their business and gain a competitive edge at JDA Day Philippines 2009 on October 6 at the Makati Shangri-La Hotel in Manila.

JDA executives  will demonstrate how JDA’s unique combination of advanced solutions and domain expertise can help other leading Philippine manufacturers, retailers and wholesaler-distributors accurately plan for consumer demand to deliver business transformation and achieve profitable results.

The transport and logistics provider has increased gross profit from 18 to 25 percent, improved average utilization from 66 percent to 85 percent, and reduced the number of trucks used from 48 to 25 for one of its largest commercial customers.

“JDA Day Philippines is the perfect forum for us to demonstrate our proven, industry-leading solutions and superior services while strategizing with top local companies. The Philippine economy is expected to grow at least 3.7 percent this year1, and as one of the newly industrialized emerging market economies of the world, we are excited by the tremendous opportunity in one of Asia Pacific’s fastest growing regions,” said Stephen McNulty, regional vice president, Asia Pacific, JDA Software. “We’re proud to help some of the Philippines’ largest companies reduce costs, achieve supply chain excellence and grow their enterprises with our advanced, end-to-end solutions.”
