Aravo Solutions has developed a patent-pending technology which dramatically simplifies the process of creating, cleansing, validating and integrating small and midsize businesses (SMEs) catalog and branded product data for use in trade networks. Aravo Solutions provides Global 2000 firms with a private-label, customized, SME-specific enablement solution. SimpleTrade™ 1.0 resides "within the Global 2000 trade network" and assumes the client's look and feel, thereby allowing firms to more effectively optimize interactions with thousands of suppliers from a single location. Over 50% of US GDP is generated by businesses with fewer than 500 employees, yet trade networks (Global 2000 extranets, industry consortia markets, public/private emarketplaces) currently offer little or no enablement functionality targeted exclusively at SME's.

Using Atlantes applications, suppliers can now push critical parts all the way out to customer sites and local or regional hubs yet reliably maintain minimal inventories, thereby significantly increasing service levels without increasing costs.
