Tuesday July 21, 6:00 am Eastern Time Company Press Release SOURCE: Healthdyne Information Enterprises, Inc. North Carolina Solves Application Integration Problems with HIE MARIETTA, Ga., July 21 /PRNewswire/ -- The State of North Carolina has chosen Healthdyne Information Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: HDIE - news) to solve the state's application integration problems following the successful completion of three projects. North Carolina's Chief Technology Officer, Emilie Schmidt, made the announcement that HIE's engine is North Carolina's ''interface engine of choice'' at the monthly meeting of the state's Information Resource Management Commission (IRMC). The IRMC sets the state's strategic direction for information technology. In addition to the two agencies involved in the pilot projects, three state agencies and a county have already expressed interest in deploying HIE's solution. The three projects completed by HIE are: * Increasing efficiency by eliminating duplicate data entry on two previously independent systems by integrating county case management software with the statewide system. * Eliminating similar inefficiencies for North Carolina's subsidized child care system. * Allowing local police to share data in a timely manner, and eliminating the state's criminal history database backlog, by linking local law enforcement agencies to the State Bureau of Investigation's Automated Fingerprint Identification System's (AFIS) biometric criminal record information. ''Solving application integration problems was one of the major issues facing the state,'' Schmidt said. ''Coding custom interfaces proved to be too time consuming and expensive. The interface engine product literature seemed almost 'too good to be true.' We were skeptical, so we tested HIE in several pilots. Our skepticism vanished. The simplicity made it possible to program all transactions for an entire application in a matter of weeks. We can now select best-of-breed applications knowing that the integration problem will be manageable. The interface engine will be a key component of our Application Integration Architecture.'' ''This approval is very important for HIE,'' Robert Murrie, HIE president, said. ''North Carolina's endorsement affirms that our technology has the flexibility to meet the varying needs of agencies throughout an entire state government.'' About HIE HIE helps enterprises rapidly integrate their existing and new applications, using the Company's market leading software tools and strategic and tactical integration services.
