WAKEFIELD, Mass., May 18, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Edgewater Technology, Inc.
(Nasdaq:EDGW) ("Edgewater Technology" or the "Company"), an innovative
technology management consulting firm, announced today that Transamerica
Worksite Marketing ("TWM"), an operating division of Transamerica Life Insurance
Company, has recently completed its new Billing, Receipting, Allocating,
Suspense System (BRASS).

"We are honored that TWM leveraged Edgewater's Insurance vertical and technology
management consulting expertise," said David Gallo, Chief Operating Officer of
Edgewater Technology. "We collaborated closely with TWM's team to develop a
comprehensive group billing and administration system that adheres to
industry-specific ACORD standards."

Built on a .Net platform, BRASS executes timely and accurate production of group
bills, processes policy / group maintenance updates, and provides many other
functions ranging from the receipt of group bill payments all the way through
policy-level premium allocation. In order to achieve this broad functionality,
BRASS interacts seamlessly with TWM's policy administration, automated workflow,
accounting and employer information systems to perform its core functions, and
is also capable of generating a robust suite of reports. Overall, the BRASS
application is comprised of nine (9) modules responsible for handling TWM's
billing and premium collection lifecycle.

"The BRASS system is a state-of-the-art group insurance solution that will
enable Transamerica to attract and retain both new employer groups and
producers," stated Connie Whitlock, TWM's Chief Operating Officer.

"BRASS has helped TWM to completely reengineer its group billing operations to
better meet our current and future business needs," stated Scott Grable, TWM's
Vice President of Group Billing and Commissions. Scott added, "By working with
Edgewater, we were able to develop a system that addresses our unique needs and
incorporates our industry's best practices."

The implementation of BRASS allowed TWM to meet one of its most important
corporate goals. The new capabilities of the BRASS system give TWM a competitive
edge in the group insurance marketplace.
