MIAMI – Feb. 5, 2007 – New Generation Computing® (NGC) today announced that Yellow River, a private-label women’s wear apparel company, has selected NGC to provide an end-to-end, integrated apparel software solution. NGC, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Software Inc. (NASDAQ: AMSWA), is a market leader in product lifecycle management (PLM), global sourcing and ERP software for the fashion, apparel and footwear industries.

Yellow River wanted more control of its processes, as well as greater transparency and visibility; the company also required closer collaboration with overseas offices and vendors in order to ensure fast, accurate deliveries to its customers. After reviewing products from the industry’s leading vendors, Yellow River selected NGC’s SQL Series Suite, which includes e-PDM software for PLM, e-SPS® software for Global Sourcing, and RedHorse® software for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).

“What set NGC apart is the level of personal attention that we received,” said Peter Mui, president, Yellow River. “NGC really understood our business. And the personal involvement at the highest levels of NGC management showed that they are committed to our success.”

NGC’s recent expansion of its New York office will allow the company to support Yellow River and other New York-based customers with rapid implementation of NGC’s ERP, PLM and global sourcing solutions. NGC will work closely with Yellow River to help the company quickly realize the benefits of faster product development, closer cooperation between departments, and greater supply chain visibility.

“NGC’s integrated software suite provides an ideal solution for fast-growth, mid-market apparel companies such as Yellow River, on up to the very largest brands and retailers,” said Alan Brooks, president, NGC. “We’re pleased that Yellow River selected NGC to provide an integrated, end-to-end solution, and we welcome them to our rapidly expanding group of customers.”
