PHILADELPHIA - Monday, March 03, 2003 - Leading procurement services provider ICG Commerce today announced
that iSource Business magazine has named Senior Vice President of Delivery and Operations David Clary a "Provider Pro"
in its 2003 "Pros to Know" listing, which appears in the February/March issue of the publication. ICG Commerce also
announced that Clary is set to serve as a speaker at the upcoming Electronic Procurement Conference in Chicago, April
8-9, 2003.
After evaluating hundreds of executives, the publication's senior writers and editors recognized elite individuals from
software and service providers who exhibit the deepest domain knowledge, tightest customer focus and most innovative
thinking within the supply chain arena. Through a dedication to continued improvement in supply chain process and
technology, these individuals are leading the way in helping companies gain significant value from their supply chain
management initiatives.
At ICG Commerce, Clary is responsible for the company's overall delivery of services to customers in North America.
Since early 2000, Clary has been instrumental in designing ICG Commerce's unique comprehensive services that have
pioneered the procurement services provider model. Clary and his team work closely with Fortune 1000 companies to
identify, realize and continuously improve savings in procurement. By applying expertise and technology across the

"This recognition is indicative of a team effort around delivering rapid value to our customers through a comprehensive
suite of services," said Clary. "We are helping our customers realize significant results and the industry is taking
notice."
At the upcoming Electronic Procurement Conference, facilitated by The Conference Board, Clary will discuss key
metrics for eProcurement performance measurement. Measuring the impact of sourcing and procurement efforts is one

investment, maximize results and achieve year-over-year cost improvements. In his presentation, Clary will examine
the importance of combining eProcurement with the right sourcing strategies and ongoing measurement and
