TECSYS Inc. Announces EliteSeries Release 7.3

Latest Suite of Enterprise Distribution Software Delivers Information Management for Mobile Enterprises

MONTREAL, February 1, 2005 — TECSYS Inc. (TSX: TCS), a leading Supply Chain Management software company, announced today its latest release of enterprise distribution management applications suite — EliteSeries Release 7.3. This release raises the bar in distribution management with advanced “anywhere, anytime” information management and extends EliteSeries further into the world of mobile computing.

Peter Brereton, President and Co-CEO at TECSYS, commented, “In today’s competitive climate you cannot afford to be uninformed. Decisions based on the right information at the right time are critical in closing new business and servicing customers.” Brereton adds, “Today’s executives and sales organizations are constantly striving to drive more profitable businesses. The information they need to remain competitive should be able to move as quickly as they do. EliteSeries 7.3 makes that happen — ensuring that any information they have available in the office is also available wherever they need to be.”

Traditional distribution management applications focus on operational efficiencies within the four walls of the enterprise. TECSYS EliteSeries has been and continues to be a leader in this area by providing software that delivers substantial efficiency improvements for distribution-centric businesses. Now with EliteSeries 7.3, TECSYS is taking this know-how beyond the boundaries of such walls - where business happens. This latest release gives executives the freedom to monitor the real-time pulse of business...anywhere, anytime. The applications allow users to mobilize, armed with the right information and the right tools, to not only run their businesses but close new business. Whether walking through a customer’s showroom, a warehouse, or in a boardroom, having the ability to stay up-to-date with key information for decision making is extremely powerful. An example of such tools is the inherent “Edit with Excel” capabilities, where users can bring any EliteSeries information into the familiar environment of Microsoft Excel with the click of a button.

EliteSeries 7.3 will also bring together all of an enterprise’s information in new and exciting ways. Information management no longer means just within the suite itself, as TECSYS has built in the ability to manage information well beyond EliteSeries. The company has achieved this by leveraging the new software development paradigm of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). SOA is not a technology but a development framework that represents a new frontier in unifying disparate systems. By leveraging Web services and SOA, TECSYS is providing software that helps organizations to truly leverage IT — by providing core functionality with flexible deployment and ease of use.

“It has been quite some time since the distribution software industry has delivered anything revolutionary, perhaps since the days when EDI was introduced. We introduced EliteSeries 7.0 a couple of years ago which was evolutionary. Today, we are announcing a new version of our enterprise applications suite which further substantiates our technology leadership position and enables best practices within distribution organizations”, stated Nam D. Vo, Sr. VP of Business Development at TECSYS. “Traditionally, software providers have focused on driving down the cost of doing business and squeezing out further efficiencies. That will continue, as it should. However, we are taking yet another leap forward by delivering capabilities for distribution businesses to focus on growing the revenue side of the equation. Distributors of the future are asking us for that...today.”

TECSYS stated that EliteSeries 7.3 is now generally available.
