Delete. Another Enterprise Resource Planning software (ERP) company advertising on Wikipedia. 'References' are to routine coverage of startup financing and to a company profile. "Global", shopping, and "solutions" in the business name --- how many more indicia of non-notability can you get? - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 17:33, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: lack of action to improve this article shows only that the principals of WP:BEFORE have not been thoroughly followed and the name of the company as an indicator of non-notability is a new one on me. (You could make the same point about "International", "Business", and "Machines" but it wouldn't change that company's notability.) Coverage is thin but notability is not a competition. - Dravecky (talk) 09:02, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per Smerdis of Tlön. Stuartyeates (talk) 07:20, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The coverage is too thin to meet WP:CORP. Of the two Houston Chronicle refs listed in the article, I was able to find the online copy for one; Exports are rare bright spot for falling dollar, which is a passing mention. The title of the other article implies coverage about raising capital which is routine business coverage. I can find lots of press releases and they are mentioned in articles like this. What I cannot find is significant coverage about the company that would be sufficient to establish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 16:42, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per all of the above. Katarighe (talk) 00:45, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
