July 15, 2003, North Andover, MA, USA – Aries Systems Corporation and the British Psychological Society are pleased to announce the completion of negotiations to deploy Editorial Manager with ten journals published by the Society.

Julie Neason, Journals Manager at the British Psychological Society, commented, “As an independent society the selection of mission-critical technology for online submission is of particular importance. Editorial Manager offers the right mix of software functionality and configurability. We particularly like the flexibility of the reporting system which will enable us to monitor and track the journals in a detailed and systematic way.”

Richard Wynne, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Aries, said “We are honored and pleased to have been selected by the British Psychological Society. Our objective is to serve customers by developing technology that will help them maintain publishing leadership in a fast-changing technological environment.”

As a result of the growing European demand for Editorial Manager, Aries has increased its European presence. Brian Lewis and Sean MacRae, based in the United Kingdom, have forty years combined experience working with editorial office systems. Aries Systems Corporation also has an office in Germany with three staff members providing local support for continental European customers.

In addition to the British Psychological Society, Editorial Manager has recently been selected by several other leading independent society publishers in the United Kingdom, including the British Institute of Radiology (for the British Journal of Radiology) and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (for The Obstetrician and Gynaecologist).
