OPTIMUS SOLUTIONS FORMS OPTIMUS CONSULTING, A NEW DIVISION FOCUSED ON TECHNOLOGY AND BUSINESS STRATEGY CONSULTING

Division Formed Due to Growth in Existing Services Business and Recent Acquisitions of Eagle Technology Consultants, & Mahre Consulting Group

NORCROSS, GEORGIA — September, 2005 — Optimus Solutions, a leading provider of Information Technology (IT) solutions, announces the formation of a new division of services, Optimus Consulting, to assist businesses in the full lifecycle of Solution Development, from discovery through deployment. The new consulting group comes from Optimus’ recent acquisition of Eagle Technology Consultants and Mahre Consulting, Inc. and combines superb leadership and technology skills to extend the scope of IT services capabilities. Acquired capabilities, such as business process modeling, analysis, and re-engineering offer the client insight to best leverage IT for business success. Through these acquisitions, Optimus Consulting’s status as an IBM Premier Business Partner, Blackberry Alliance Partner, and Microsoft Gold Certified Partner expands Optimus’ expertise to provide effective IT solutions for its existing client base and prospective customers.

“As companies strive to get ahead of the competition, organizations need expert resources to give direction and purpose to their technology strategy,” said Mark Metz, CEO of Optimus Solutions. “The talented leadership and staff of Optimus Consulting will continue to deliver superior results for our customers.”

Through the acquisition of Mahre Consulting, Optimus Consulting now offers Business Process Modeling (BPM), analysis, and re-engineering solutions that enable corporations to streamline processes, collaborate more effectively, and identify savings opportunities. These capabilities include linking processes to profits by integrating finance and forecasting applications such as supply chain and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) applications and orchestrating complex system interactions, both internally and with the processes of other companies. BPM enables remote users to access information, executives to view interactions within defined business units, and managers to generate effective models using real-time data for training and collaboration.

“Business Process Modeling, analysis, and reengineering is a rapidly growing field that bridges the gap between business goals and IT strategies to reduce costs and increase productivity throughout an entire company,” said Steve Johnson, president of Optimus Solutions. “We are delighted to offer these new services to provide clients with innovative ways to foster operational excellence and reach their strategic vision.”

Optimus Consulting also gains professionals from the acquisition of Eagle Technology Consultants who use robust tools and best practice techniques for developing, implementing, and integrating information solutions effectively and efficiently. The organization has great expertise in application integration, IBM Domino/Lotus® groupware solutions, Research in Motion (RIM) Blackberry® mobile solutions, and web-enabled solutions such as Sun J2EE, Microsoft .NET, and IBM Domino and Websphere. Optimus Consulting is poised to help large and medium corporations leverage their existing technology investments, reduce costs, increase productivity and improve the quality of information and customer service.
