Doug and thread - TAVA news Home - Yahoo! - Help [ Business \| US Market \| By Industry \| IPO \| AP \| S&P \| International \| PRNews \| BizWire ] Thursday July 9, 9:19 am Eastern Time Company Press Release SOURCE: TAVA Technologies, Inc. TAVA Technologies Announces $33 Million in Year 2000 Orders in Fiscal 1998 ENGLEWOOD, Colo., July 9 /PRNewswire/ -- TAVA Technologies (Nasdaq: TAVA - news) a global supplier of integrated manufacturing systems, reported that it had received new orders of more than $33,000,000 for Y2k tools and services in its fiscal 1998 ending June 30, 1998. Of this total $25,000,000 was received in the company's fiscal fourth quarter. The orders were split almost evenly in content between tools and services and include international and domestic engagements across a wide range of industries. Order values generally represent Plant Y2k One CD-ROM purchases, estimated compliance database reports, training and estimated services through the specific project stage. Typical order execution cycles range from 90 to 180 days. Kevin Fallon, TAVA C.O.O. said, ''Most all of this activity was for the initial inventory and assessment stages of client programs. These are necessary first steps before conversion planning and remediation. Conversion planning and remediation services generally will be covered by separate orders issued after the assessment process is complete.'' He added, ''Our business pipeline continues to grow as does the scope of our opportunity. We expect new orders to continue at the current quarterly rate. We are continuing to build our organization to support this business level, and have recently opened new offices in both Minneapolis and Houston to better support our growing client base. Headcount at the close of June was 470, up from 320 on December 31, 1997. We continue to have good success with our recruiting efforts.'' John Jenkins, CEO said, ''We believe the accelerating demand for our product is driven by both the rapidly increasing corporate and government awareness of Y2k risk in embedded systems and the growing recognition of the value of the TAVA Tool and Database offering.'' Jenkins noted, ''Our database of compliance information on factory automation and process control elements now stands at more than 30,000 researched items and is increasing currently at more than 1000 items per week. The database, when combined with our tool based delivery, provides very significant cycle time reduction in the critical inventory and assessment stages of client programs. It is important to note that even with the increased database population, we still find 12% to 18% of that population to be either non-compliant or suspect.'' Jenkins added, ''In addition to the strong growth of our Y2k practice, we are now engaged in core business opportunities with our new client base. At the same time we are beginning to see strong interest in our Y2k product from non-traditional users these opportunities range from application by insurers in portfolio risk assessment to use by global financial institutions to address the Y2k readiness of their building management and security systems.
