MODCOMP Provides Browser-Based GUI for AudaManager Bodyshop Management System

February 16, 2001, Ft. Lauderdale, FL - MODCOMP® Limited, a subsidiary of CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI) and a leading developer of E-commerce and M-business solutions, today announced that its ViewMax integration server software has been chosen to provide an intuitive, browser-based graphical user interface for AudaManager, the leading vehicle repair workshop management system from Audatex (UK) Limited.

AudaManager is an advanced Bodyshop Management System (BMS) which provides full process control and administration management to improve the profitability of vehicle repair workshops. The system manages all aspects of the business including real time employee tracking, full parts control, statistical and financial analysis, courtesy car management and every other aspect involved in running a modern bodyshop. AudaManager links to the AudaWorkstation estimating system and carries a record of every job and the time allocated to each stage of the repair.

With the rapid acceptance of the Internet, the enhancement of AudaManager with a GUI front-end web capability was a key requirement; improving the usability of the system and enabling clients to track the progress of their vehicles through the repair process via the web. MODCOMP's ViewMax integration server was selected as the integration tool. This decision was based not only on robustness, scalability and rapid development capability of ViewMax but also on its ability to handle emerging mobile distribution channels.

Brian Miller - Managing Director of MODCOMP Ltd added: "ViewMax integration software will enable the user interface of any application to be enhanced to provide an intuitive, user friendly, browser-style GUI. In the case of AudaManager, this allowed text-based screens to be modernised and paved the way for new applications such as vehicle tracking over the Internet. We are delighted to be associated with the success of AudaManager in the UK market."
