Auckland, New Zealand, 26 September, 2005 –- SSA Global™ (NASDAQ: SSAG), a leading global provider of extended enterprise solutions and services, has unveiled its solution framework that enables customers to comply with financial and regulatory mandates in a way that is cost effective and non-disruptive to their businesses.

Eaves, chief technology officer, SSA Global. “We have developed a strategic approach that helps our customers leverage SSA Global solutions to meet their immediate and long-term compliance requirements without disrupting business or spending more time and money than necessary.”

Forward-Looking Statements
These materials may contain "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements, and may contain the words “believe,” “anticipate,” ”expect,” ”estimate,” ”intend,” ”project,” ”plan,” ”will be,” ”will likely continue,” “ will likely result,” or words or phrases with similar meaning. All of these forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions made by our management that, although we believe to be reasonable, are inherently uncertain. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors outside of our control that may cause our business, strategy or actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. We operate in a changing environment in which new risks can emerge from time to time. It is not possible for management to predict all of these risks, nor can it assess the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause our business, strategy or actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements. Factors you should consider that could cause these differences include, among other things:

• General economic and business conditions, including exchange rate fluctuations in the United States and abroad;

• Our ability to identify acquisition opportunities and effectively and cost-efficiently integrate acquisitions;

• Our ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting;

• Our ability to attract and retain personnel, including key personnel;

• Our success in developing and introducing new services and products;

• Competition in the software industry, as it relates to both our existing and potential new customers.
