NEWS Engineering store group, Si3, has become the first UK firm to buy a hosted application based on Progress Software technology. Si3 will use Mfour - a supply chain management system - across its 200 engineering stores in the UK and Europe. The system, created using Progress' development and deployment technology by sister company, Systemcare, is accessed over a private WAN using ISDN. A secondary Internet system will also be set up, enabling staff responsible for ordering stock to access Mfour via a browser. The service is offered by System Outhosting Solutions.
