Attensity Continues Aggressive Push to Help Government Agencies Turn Unstructured Data into Actionable Information

Advanced Data Analysis Software Provider Secures Listing on GSA Schedule; Expands Washington D.C. Office

MOUNTAIN VIEW, California - March 22, 2004 -- Attensity, an emerging leader in advanced business intelligence and data analysis software for government agencies and commercial enterprises, announced that the General Services Administration has awarded a Multiple Award Schedule Contract No. GS-35F-0261 to Attensity ensuring that its patented software is readily available to government buyers. The contract calls for a five-year base term with an option for five additional years. The company also expanded its operations in the Washington D.C. area.

Attensity's solutions enable government organizations to transform unstructured data into valuable, actionable information. The company's unique software automatically extracts critical data from free-form text and combines it with structured information, giving government agencies the insight they need to quickly respond to - or take precautions against - potentially costly or dangerous events. The software is currently in use in numerous federal agencies, primarily in the critical areas of threat detection, intelligence, homeland security and law enforcement.

"Government organizations are inundated with copious amounts of unstructured content that may contain critical, time-sensitive information. Our technology eliminates the need to sort through this data manually, substantially reducing the amount of time it takes to discover crucial details. This is sparking enormous interest among organizations at all levels, and our place on the GSA Schedule as well as the new office in Washington D.C. will help us meet this demand," said Craig Norris, CEO of Attensity.

GSA Schedules give Federal and State government organizations easy access to state-of-the-art commercial services and products on a direct-delivery basis. All customers, even those in remote locations, are provided with the latest technology, quality services and products, convenience and most-favored customer pricing. Moreover, orders placed against a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract using the procedures under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 8.4 are considered to be issued using full and open competition (see FAR 6.102(d)(3)).

To further address the needs of existing and prospective government customers, Attensity has expanded its presence in the Washington D.C. area. Attensity's Government Systems Group is now located at 1600 Tysons Boulevard, Suite 863, Tysons Corner, VA 22102. The company also has corporate offices in Mountain View, California and a technology center in Salt Lake City, Utah.
