Boston, Massachusetts—September 18, 2003—ARCHIBUS Inc., developer of the # 1 facilities and infrastructure management solution in the world, today announces the addition of DataCore Technology to the ARCHIBUS Application Specialist (AAS) network. The AAS program is a network of qualified information technology and business consultants who provide ARCHIBUS®-related services.

Integrating Infrastructure, Facilities, and Document Management
DataCore Technology specializes in document management products from Cyco Software, including AutoManager® Meridian, which can now be linked to ARCHIBUS thanks to a partnership between Cyco and ARCHIBUS announced earlier this year. The integration between AutoManager Meridian and ARCHIBUS enables users to organize information in meaningful ways, thereby improving business processes such as space planning, moves/adds/changes, maintenance/repair operations, and more.

As a leading systems integrator of EDM solutions, DataCore Technology will roll out a structured Partner Program to ARCHIBUS resellers who want to provide integrated Infrastructure, Facilities and Document Management (IFDM) solutions to their customers while focusing on their core business.

Increased Options for ARCHIBUS Users  
“DataCore Technology will offer the ARCHIBUS business partner community an opportunity to promote powerful and complementary document management solutions from Cyco Software without taking our partners’ time and resources away from the business of selling and providing services around ARCHIBUS software,” says Jim Goodfield, Vice President of Business Development for ARCHIBUS Inc. “This aligns with the strategy behind the AAS network, which is to connect ARCHIBUS users with partners—such as DataCore Technology—who have the resources and expertise to meet our users’ specific facilities and infrastructure management needs.”

Brian Sallade, President of DataCore Technology Inc., adds: “We are very excited about our affiliation with ARCHIBUS as well as the announcement of integration between ARCHIBUS and AutoManager Meridian. The combination of ARCHIBUS and Cyco’s EDM software provides a complete solution for managing all facilities infrastructure information, including data-driven facilities drawings, architectural drawings, lease documents, equipment manuals, and more. DataCore will now take this program and make it more attractive to ARCHIBUS resellers with customers who need strong document management on top of an already strong facilities and infrastructure management solution in ARCHIBUS.”
