PHILADELPHIA - Tuesday, October 18, 2005 - Leading procurement services provider ICG Commerce today announced

this week in Rancho Mirage, California.  
 
The semi-annual event will feature the most current topics in the world of sourcing and outsourcing, including 
procurement BPO, strategic sourcing and supply management. Through more than a decade of working with hundreds 
of leading companies on procurement initiatives, ICG Commerce understands today's executives are expecting more 
savings than ever – savings they can measure in terms of earnings – that increase year after year. Drawing from deep 
domain expertise, ICG Commerce executives will share experience and best practices around strategic sourcing and 
procurement outsourcing, high-impact initiatives that can enhance a company's performance and significantly improve 
its bottom line.  
 
Jeff Gallant, vice president of business development, will present "Beyond Sourcing: How to Drive Additional Total 
Cost Savings Year After Year" on October 19 from 3:30-4:20 p.m. His presentation will explore how companies can 
identify opportunities to improve value in supplier agreements and continue to reduce costs on an ongoing basis.

Jason Gilroy, vice president of outsourcing for ICG Commerce, will participate in a procurement outsourcing  
roundtable at the conference on October 20 at 1:30 p.m. The panel also will feature an executive from a leading 
telecommunications services company currently engaged with ICG Commerce in a procurement outsourcing initiative. 
Panelists will discuss best practices, the pros and cons of procurement outsourcing, and future innovations in the space.  
 
"The Sourcing Leadership conference provides an excellent forum for executives to identify and discuss new 
innovations and practical approaches for reducing company costs, and ICG Commerce is pleased to be among the 
group of experts participating in this year's event," said Gilroy. "From proven strategies in procurement outsourcing to
