MIAMI, FL., May 7, 2001 –Peace Software and Delinea Corporation today announced that Delinea has licensed Peace’s Energy software as the best-in-class customer management application for its ASP services targeted at mid-sized regulated and deregulated utilities. Peace Software is a leading provider of advanced customer management solutions for utilities and retail energy companies. Delinea is a leading vertical service provider (VSP) committed to transforming energy enterprises through vertical application services provision, digital consulting and outsourcing services.

“Delinea combines expertise, a sound business model and strong investment backing from Koch Ventures to deliver a highly cost-effective ASP value proposition for the utility industry,” said Jim Lochry, executive vice president of field operations at Peace Software. “By partnering with Delinea, we can now address growing customer demand for an ASP environment, as well as extend our delivery reach to a broader range of customers.”

Delinea’s flexible ASP platform integrates and aggregates best-in-class and legacy applications to cost-effectively address the critical and specific needs of mid-sized utilities. This enables utilities to efficiently keep pace with the ever-shortening application development cycle and changing dynamics of the energy marketplace.

We intend to leverage the influential Energy brand to target underserved utilities that may not have considered leading-edge technology an option in the past. By using our ASP Energy platform, these mid-sized utilities can concentrate on their core competencies rather than worrying about acquiring and managing the latest customer management technology.”
