Ontario Systems Announces Strategic Partnership with BitWise Solutions, Inc.

February 11, 2004

Ontario Systems today announced a strategic alliance with BitWise Solutions, one of Indiana's largest Web development firms. The partnership will allow the companies to jointly market upgrades to Ontario Systems' FACS Web product.

The FACS Web product enables clients and debtors to access receivables management information through the Internet. The product makes it easy to develop Web-enabled functions that can access FACS system data, and it provides a template that includes a library of functions.

"The FACS Web product provides a standard template clients can modify to meet their needs," said Paul Smith, Ontario Systems' vice president of marketing. "Our partnership with BitWise allows us to meet customers' specific needs and provide the best integrated solution for their Web presences."

Ontario Systems will refer FACS Web clients to BitWise for help customizing the system to meet their unique business needs. These specialized needs include reporting requirements, added HIPAA security measures and integration with legacy systems. BitWise will provide "add-on" features, functions and graphic design work necessary to create brand consistency between corporate Web sites and the portal tool.

"Ontario Systems is a leader in its field, and we're honored to be the development partner that helps FACS Web reach its full potential," said Ron Brumbarger, BitWise Solutions' president and chief executive officer. "Businesses aren't looking for cookie-cutter applications. They want technology built on a solid foundation that still addresses their unique needs. Ontario Systems' and BitWise's skill sets are well matched to meet the market demand for a comprehensive debt management solution that includes customized functions and consistent brand representation."

"BitWise is our vendor of choice because of its experience and reputation for Internet application design and implementation," Smith said. "The company has been responsive to our customers and is willing to customize this application and even host the Web site if requested. We are pleased to recommend BitWise to perform customization to our FACS Web product."

Ontario Systems' clients can benefit from the alliance beginning in February 2004.
