PHOENIX, AZ and OTTAWA, ON, June 25 /PRNewswire/ - ConSyGen, Inc. (NASDAQ BB: CSGI) and AGISS Software Corporation (NASDAQ BB: AGCR) announced that they have entered into an agreement for the opening of a ConSyGen, Inc. Canadian Conversion Center to be located in the AGISS facilities in Ottawa.
According to Ron Bishop, President and CEO of ConSyGen, ``This agreement enables ConSyGen to move ahead with its plans to offer our automated Year 2000 conversion services at several locations throughout the world, both to extend the toolset's throughput capability and to confirm the commitment to our principal partners, such as AGISS, which is actively promoting the ConSyGen 2000 toolset for Canadian clients. We are delighted to have the opportunity to locate the first remote ConSyGen Conversion Center within the AGISS Ottawa facility, and at the same time to evaluate the opening of
additional Conversion centers in other countries.''
Scott Feagan, President of AGISS, stated: ``Our Canadian clients have been searching for a local solution, particularly where security and confidentiality of data and programs is of concern. This Canadian Center is in direct response to those clients who have been reluctant to send their code off-shore. We are excited to be the first Conversion Center operating in Ottawa and we invite our Canadian clients to take advantage of this truly Canadian solution. The REMEDY2000(TM) solution for the millenium offers a client the option of having AGISS provide complete end-to-end, full life cycle services for a Y2k project such as assessment, automated conversion and testing. As an alternative we can tailor a solution that provides only the services required.''
Bishop added: ``In opening our first remote Conversion Center in Canada, we will not be dedicating any ConSyGen staff To the site, thereby demonstrating further that ConSyGen 2000 is an effective means of making many million lines of code compliant for Year 2000 processing with only minimal human involvement.''
ConSyGen, Inc. uses its proprietary toolsets to provide fully automated conversions of mainframe hardware applications to open systems and Year 2000 conversions. AGISS Software Corporation is a Canadian company that offers its REMEDY2000(TM) solution, a Year 2000 service which incorporates the use of ConSyGen, Inc.'s fully automated conversion toolset to governments and commercial businesses.
