Some small companies are starting to see the light, when it comes to business-to-business e-commerce - including two beta users of Microsoft's Solution for Supplier Enablement. Jeff Odom, president of printing products and services vendor TCS Corporate Services in Richardson, Texas, said any concerns he had about the costs of deploying the Microsoft package are being offset by his access to new markets.

Odom said a growing number of his Fortune 500 customers have been asking his firm to interface to the Ariba and Commerce One e-procurement products they have been installing. But he couldn't find a vendor to help for less than $1 million.
