Business Wire, Sept 23, 2008

HERNDON, Va. -- Search Technologies Corporation, a leading international provider and integrator of enterprise-search software and services, announced today that its project assessment methodology has been recognized as a trend-setting product of 2008 by KMWorld, a publisher focused on knowledge, document and content management markets.

"Our project assessment methodology is at the core of our value proposition for commercial and public sector customers," said Kamran Khan, Search Technologies President and Chief Executive Officer. "In just a few days, our engineers identify customer infrastructure, IT goals and, frankly, problems. We know where to focus our expertise to deliver high-value projects. Within weeks, not months, customers can have a web-based search application up and running. Effectively, efficiently and affordably."

Editor in Chief Hugh McKellar said KMWorld's 2008 list of trend-setting products is dominated by search offerings. "We've been quite accurate over the years selecting products that deliver customer value," McKellar said. "There is nothing more fundamental to information management than first locating and then retrieving data."

In February, Search Technologies was named to KMWorld's 2008 list of "100 Companies that Matter in Knowledge Management."
