LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 3, 2002

TRIRIGA INC., a leading provider of business automation software for the hospitality, design/build, and power & process industries, today announced that it is showcasing the latest version of its Web-based cost and procurement management solution, TRIRIGA Intelligent Business System(TM) (IBS), at A/E/C SYSTEMS 2002, June 3-6 in Anaheim, CA.

The TRIRIGA exhibit is located in the Autodesk booth, #723. In addition, two members of the TRIRIGA executive team, Cameron Smith and Michael Daffer, will be presenting as speakers in separate sessions at the show.

Built on a unique Design to Operation(TM) (D2O(TM)) methodology, TRIRIGA IBS offers a digital design collaboration platform to automate and manage all types of large-scale development and capital improvement projects.

TRIRIGA IBS provides a centralized database to capture all the details related to the asset creation process, from design concepts, CAD drawings, and specifications information to cost estimating, procurement, and ongoing facilities management. By centrally accessing information using TRIRIGA IBS, project teams can dramatically improve collaboration, business process efficiency, and time-to-completion.

TRIRIGA and Autodesk recently announced a strategic partnership to jointly provide their industry building solutions, including Autodesk Architectural Desktop (ADT) and TRIRIGA IBS, which can be used together to build an intelligent framework for digital design initiatives, and effectively use downstream data throughout a project's life cycle from concept to facilities management.

TRIRIGA Presentations at A/E/C

Mr. Smith, Vice President of Program Management at TRIRIGA, will participate in a session with other industry colleagues on Asset Lifecycle Management, scheduled to take place on Monday, June 3, 10:30 AM-12 PM.

The discussion will focus on strategies and tools to effectively manage each step of the asset creation process - from concept to planning and design, through procurement, construction, and facility management.

Mr. Daffer, TRIRIGA's Vice President of Strategic Business Development, will be joined by Brett Ewing, Executive Vice President of Architecture at leading design firm Marnell Corrao Associates, to lead Digital Design Throughout the Lifecycle, scheduled to take place on Tuesday, June 4, 1:15 PM-2 PM. Marnell Corrao Associates is one of TRIRIGA's premier clients.

During the session, Marnell Corrao Associates will demonstrate its digital design process, and offer a case study on how it is using TRIRIGA IBS, along with Autodesk ADT, to manage design projects across the lifecycle. The combination of TRIRIGA IBS and Autodesk ADT offers a way to extend model-based design intelligence throughout every phase of a large-scale development project.

A/E/C SYSTEMS 2002 delivers technology solutions for all aspects of the asset lifecycle - designing, building, owning, managing - and everything in between. For more information about TRIRIGA at the show, contact TRIRIGA at (702) 932-4444, or visit http://www.tririga.com.
