  PLEASANTON, CA, Oct 08 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Right Hemisphere(R) today announced that it won the 2009 Excellence in
Enterprise Integration Award from the Association for Enterprise
Information (AFEI). In its 7th year, the awards program recognizes teams
that exemplify excellence in achieving integrated enterprises. Winners
are best practice models of technology application and leadership that
improves enterprise performance. Each year, the AFEI names two winners --
one from industry and one from the government sector. This year's top
industry honors went to Right Hemisphere for its "Aircraft CAD
Integration Information" project. In this project, Right Hemisphere
enabled a world-class aerospace manufacturer to centralize its 3D
computer-aided design product data so that it could be sourced, accessed,
and visualized in a secure, collaborative, concurrent engineering, and
multi-disciplinary way.

    "Though we received many excellent project nominations, Right Hemisphere's
submission was a fine example of advanced technology challenges,
innovation and value. There was an immediate consensus among the judges
that this was the top choice," said AFEI Director Betsy Lauer.

    "We are honored to receive this award from the AFEI, acknowledging the
fine work of our integration team," said George W. Earle, vice president
of global enterprise services at Right Hemisphere. "We had an excellent
deployment team, but we also had an outstanding customer to partner with
on this particular project. We share this award with them as we would not
have achieved this degree of success without their substantial
contribution."

    The AFEI 2009 Excellence in Enterprise Integration Awards judging panel
was comprised of representatives from Transportation Information Systems
(TIS), the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA), NAVSYS (last
year's AFEI industry category winner) and JFCOM (last year's AFEI
government winner). According to the AFEI, award winners were selected
based on how well they achieved: innovation, strategic effect, customer
value, financial impact, operational consequence and cultural change. The
judges gave the most weight to projects that achieved the most
significant performance improvements in areas such as customer
relationship, supply chain, manufacturing, collaboration, and web
services.

    In Right Hemisphere's winning project, an aerospace manufacturer
implemented Right Hemisphere's Deep Server(TM) Connect. Deep Server
Connect is an enterprise integration solution that employs uniform service
oriented architecture (SOA) interfaces and federated search to export 3D
product data from multiple engineering repositories (product data
management systems) into a visual product information system. The Deep
Server Connect solution eliminates manual methods and processes of visual
product information searching, data exporting, and change management
across an organization. The solution also automates 3D product data
integration and hides data structure, and the complexities of data
accessibility from the organization's non-engineering users who would
also be using this data.

    Right Hemisphere will officially receive its Excellence in Enterprise
Integration Award at the Data Enterprise Conference today in Springfield,
VA. For more information on the Excellence in Enterprise Integration
