NORWALK, Conn., Dec. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- LogicSource, a leading sourcing solutions firm, today announced the appointment of Sam Vail, an executive with 25 years of senior leadership experience, to the newly created position of General Manager of its OneMarket® technology division. He will be responsible for driving OneMarket's "Concept-to-Customer" solutions strategy, product marketing, and business development.

LogicSource's proprietary OneMarket platform is the foundation for nearly all of the Company's client solutions, and is centered on an e-procurement application that specializes in managing complex, frequently specified items such as print, packaging and retail operations goods. OneMarket also includes Digital Asset Management, Dynamic Publishing, and Business Analytics modules which together offer clients a fully integrated, end-to-end marketing production and execution solution.

"OneMarket is transforming the way our clients think about and manage their creative processes, and is enabling seamless collaboration across the enterprise from marketing creative, traffic, project management, procurement and transacting with external suppliers," Vail said. "OneMarket delivers real value by supporting categories of complex, highly configured and detailed specification products that horizontal solutions simply do not handle effectively."

Vail brings a unique perspective to this new position at LogicSource, having worked with large and emerging growth software and Internet companies to create and execute business-building strategies. He established a proven track record in developing strategic partnering relationships, opening new distribution channels and markets, and deploying novel sales, marketing and business development approaches at companies such as Gartner, ISG and Unisys. He also brings experience as an operating partner at private equity firms, Kidd & Company and Spencer Trask. Most recently, Vail was a Partner at Information Services Group, a technology insights and sourcing advisory services company where he successfully launched and developed a consulting practice that led one of the world's largest sourcing contracts in 2012.

"Sam truly understands how to align software products with market needs, and knows how to deliver comprehensive B2B solutions," said David Pennino, President and Chief Executive Officer of LogicSource. "I am confident he will speed the adoption of OneMarket and enhance its impact by actively listening to our customers and continuously innovating in order to address our clients' most critical business challenges."
