ePlus Announces Technology Solution for Homeland Security and First Responders Community

Market Wire, February, 2008

ePlus inc. (PINKSHEETS: PLUS) today announced the availability of a software solution for first responders and other emergency workers.

The DigitalPaper XE (Extended Enterprise) document imaging and distribution solution can provide real-time access to detailed infrastructure information for mobile users and emergency workers, including:

--  Building floor plans and schematics
--  Evacuation routes
--  Topographical maps and aerial photographs
--  Civil engineering plans, including water, gas, electrical, sewer,
    roads, bridge, airport, and structural drawings
    

When emergencies occur -- whether natural disasters, fires, building or bridge collapses, or hostage crises -- first responders such as police, firefighters, emergency medical personnel, SWAT, and HazMat teams can benefit by having fast access to pertinent information. Examples of potential uses are identifying the best exit routes for evacuation, proximity of fire hydrants, building plans, electrical drawings, and locations of hazards such as gas lines.

Using DigitalPaper XE's patented DirectSight technology, first responders can access the necessary maps, drawings, plans, and documents online, en route to an emergency, when hard copy blueprints are not available or practical. Previous file transfer technology could not provide timely access to this data due to the physical file size of such documents, which can exceed 50 MB. ePlus' DPXE DirectSight technology delivers access to the most recent file of any size in less than a few seconds on a mobile PC or wireless Web pad and the ability to zoom in to key areas in the document without delay.

"Our DigitalPaper XE solution is another example of our on-going commitment to technical product and design innovation," said Ken Farber, president of ePlus Systems. "Getting the right information to the right people how, when, and where they need it is critical to a growing number of workers who otherwise lack real-time, on-demand access."

Organizations such as Ohio Department of Transportation use DigitalPaper XE for immediate access to relevant engineering, construction, and public works documents and drawings: the same information as is required by Homeland Security and first responders for emergency management.

The technology will be unveiled to the first responder community at two upcoming conferences over the next few weeks -- the AFCEA Homeland Security Conference at the Ronald Reagan International Trade Center in Washington, DC on February 27-28 and the GovSec, U.S. Law and Ready Conference at the Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC on April 23-24.
