AUTOWEB AWARDED THREE-YEAR CONTRACT IN NEW BUSINES

26/03/2007


ROCHESTER HILLS, Michigan, March 26 /PRNewswire/ --

Autoweb, a global provider of data management and interoperability
solutions for the automotive, aerospace and manufacturing industries, is
expanding its presence in the aerospace industry with a contract award from a
major aerospace supplier.


The three-year agreement will automate the key processes used by the
aerospace supplier to manage the translation and exchange of computer-aided
design (CAD) data within its enterprise and with its customers and suppliers.
Autoweb's Fusion-DX and Global Supplier Network (GSN) Services will replace
the supplier's current manually-orientated processes to deliver significant
improvements and waste reductions.


The aerospace supplier will incorporate Autoweb's solution over eight
global sites, which will reduce duplicate work and inefficiencies. The
solution will be integrated with the company's PLM Teamcenter Engineering and
NX CAD translation solutions which facilitate end-to-end management of
engineering data exchanges via Autoweb's GSN network.


"With these solutions working together, the client is expected to
significantly increase productivity at all of their global sites," said
Martyn Davies, vice president of European Operations for Autoweb. "By
employing Autoweb's software as a service model, the client will
significantly reduce costs associated with managing these services
internally."


The Autoweb solution connects clients with their customers and suppliers
via the GSN network -- allowing for a two-way exchange of CAD data -- which
is simple and highly secure.


"All of our tools are designed to provide our valued original equipment
manufacturer (OEM) customers and their suppliers with the ability to easily
expand their use globally," Davies noted.


Autoweb will exhibit during the 2007 Society of British Aerospace
Companies (SBAC) conference on March 29 in Manchester, United Kingdom.
Autoweb representatives who plan to attend are Martyn Davies, Vice President
of European Operations, and Mark Embra, Sales Executive.
