    With nearly a 50% increase in performance, IBM and PeopleSoft prove their partnership strength, again. This time, they teamed their engineering skills to develop specific improvements in the PeopleSoft Service Pack 1 for Inventory Transaction Cost Accounting based on the data discovered during the benchmarking tests run in 2004. That data was used to provide code improvements for the application set, which ultimately provides the customer a better and faster product. The new 2005 benchmark results demonstrate faster results and fantastic teamwork.
