Date:12/2/2008

DERBYSHIRE, England and MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Dec. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Attainia and The National Health Service Supply Chain today announced they will deploy Attainia's suite of web-based budgeting and planning applications to Hospital trusts within the United Kingdom.

"NHSSC has moved quickly to develop leading supply chain solutions for the Hospital trusts in the United Kingdom," according to Jeff Kleck, CEO of Attainia. "We recognize that NHSSC is building one of the best processes of any market in the world. As part of their mission, the NHSSC is adopting the tools necessary to facilitate proper planning and ensure that capital equipment is brought in on-time and on-budget."

Andy Brown, Trading Director for NHSSC notes, "Effective capital equipment planning will deliver a real benefit to trusts and is something that we want to offer as part of our capital equipment solution. The Attainia system is excellent in its breadth of functionality and application to the Healthcare market and we are working closely with Attainia as part of our effort to adopt this in the UK. We have already deployed it with one of the largest trusts in Europe -- UHB in Birmingham and they are using it to plan and equip 5000 rooms. We will go live with another 3 trusts before the end of the year."
