Aberdeen Group Research Indicates Leading Firms Are Placing Strong Emphasis on Workforce Management and Scheduling Solutions

SOUTHBOROUGH, Mass. -- ViryaNet Limited (OTC BB: VRYAF.OB), a leading provider of software applications that automate business processes for field service management, and the Aberdeen Group, a Harte-Hanks Company (NYSE: HHS) today announced the release of a ground-breaking industry report that examines how leading companies are optimizing processes and adopting scheduling technology to improve their staff productivity, operational efficiency, and financial performance.

The report, entitled Complex Service Work: Scheduling Technicians, Crews, and Physical Resources, finds that leading service firms are twice as likely as all other firms to centralize the function of scheduling across the entire organization. Success characteristics of these leading firms include:

* 95% project deadline and Service Level Agreement (SLA) compliance

* 83% current technician / crew utilization

* 7.3% reduction in overtime pay over the last 12 months

* 8.8% increase in equipment utilization over the last 12 months

"This report, the first to cover the topic of complex work, provides a benchmark against which firms can measure themselves," stated Jack McAvoy, Research Director and author of the report, Aberdeen Group. "The sheer number of moving parts, people, and processes -- as well as a hierarchy of dependencies -- can make complex work projects overwhelming without proper oversight and automation. Better managing these long-duration, resource intensive projects has become a required best practice for leading service organizations to meet regulatory requirements, financial valuations, and customer satisfaction metrics. The adoption of scheduling software, coupled with business intelligence (BI), project management, parts management, and smart field devices can make organizations' financial and operational goals a reality."

"ViryaNet recognizes that in order to truly optimize enterprise work schedules, a company needs to centralize their scheduling and dispatch operations so as to manage all types of work, including complex work," stated Memy Ish-Shalom, ViryaNet President and CEO. "That's why ViryaNet's software solutions allow customers to plan, schedule, dispatch, and track all types of work from a single application."
