Compuware Covisint Extends Global Supplier Portal Contract With Daimler AG

DETROIT and STUTTGART, Germany, June 16, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Compuware
Corporation (Nasdaq:CPWR) today announced that its Covisint subsidiary has
signed a contract extension with Daimler AG (NYSE:DAI). The newly inked
agreement extends Covisint's work for the Stuttgart-based auto manufacturer
through a comprehensive portal and identity management solution that securely
connects Daimler with its vast network of suppliers globally.

Large manufacturing companies with global supply chain requirements face several
technology and flexibility challenges in providing suppliers with access to
critical business information and applications. Security also is key since,
without it, technology -- no matter how advanced -- is rendered useless.

"As social media and other newer technologies continue to emerge, security's
role in communications and transactions becomes even more critical," said
Florian Manhart, Director, Daimler AG. "Together with Covisint, we will further
leverage the latest Web 2.0 features and, in a systematic approach, look for
solutions to bring the communication with our suppliers to the next level."

Covisint provides Daimler and its suppliers with an industry standard
connectivity and security solution -- including single-sign-on in a cloud
computing, SaaS model -- enabling seamless and secure collaboration for critical
business information.

"Covisint delivers on the global needs of business, regardless of a customer's
geography, unique technology strategy or size of partnership network," said
David McGuffie, Covisint President. "Covisint has the ability to drive process
efficiency within the complex nature of global supply chains, and we are
extremely pleased with the strategic Daimler relationship positioning us to
continue our growth in the European market."

Covisint's on-demand collaboration platform and cloud computing approach helps
virtual communities securely access, use and share time sensitive information.
Covisint solves business problems by streamlining and automating processes
globally -- connecting state and nationally based communities, organizations and
systems in the healthcare, automotive and financial services industries, as well
as the public sector. Learn more about Covisint at www.covisint.com.
