BlueWave Named 'Company to Watch' in 2009 Vanguards in Insurance Practices
(V.I.P.) Awards

ORLANDO, Fla., May 18, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BlueWave Technology, a leading
provider of claim management solutions for the property/casualty insurance
industry, is pleased to announce the company has been named the "Company to
Watch" in the 2009 Vanguards in Insurance Practices (V.I.P.) program sponsored
by Insurance Networking News and Celent, an Oliver Wyman company.

BlueWave Technology offers a Java-based solution that combines business process
management (BPM) with centralized claims operations to expedite claims
resolution. Celent recently recognized BlueWave as one of the companies which
helped Farmers Alliance Mutual Insurance earn its 2009 Model Carrier of the Year
Award.

"The importance of responsiveness is certainly not lost on this relative
newcomer to the industry, especially in light of its ability to help insurers
expedite claims," said Pat Speer, editor-in-chief of Insurance Networking News.
"Insurance Networking's editors are pleased to recognize BlueWave Technology as
the 2009 VIP Company to Watch."

Awards based on the 3rd Annual V.I.P. program were presented during a black tie
ceremony at which Holli Gronset, associate publisher of Insurance Networking
News, Carrie Burns, senior managing editor of Insurance Networking News, and
Jeff Goldberg, senior analyst in Celent's Insurance Group, presided. Riki
Fujitani, CEO of BlueWave Technology, was on hand to accept the award at the
ceremony, which was held Sunday, May 17, at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel
during the ACORD-LOMA Insurance Systems Forum.

"Being named a VIP 'Company to Watch' shows that BlueWave has won over customers
and is poised for success," said Craig Weber, senior vice president of Celent's
Insurance Group.

V.I.P. winners were determined by an industry survey conducted by Insurance
Networking News and Celent at the end of 2008. This market survey was open
exclusively to insurance companies in the United States and Canada who ranked
their experiences with insurance technology providers across several categories.

"Our number one goal is to have satisfied customers," said Riki Fujitani,
president of BlueWave. "We feel that everything else will follow. This
recognition demonstrates that our modern, user-friendly technology and our
diligent implementation methodology have been received favorably by those who
matter the most."
