performance and profitability. Our strategy is to provide software and
services that help targeted customers improve their profitability through

Our Products
Datastream 7i. Datastream 7i™ provides customers with the tools they need
for effective asset performance management. As an Internet-based product,
Datastream 7i applies to virtually any size operation, from the large,
multi-national enterprise requiring global solutions to the single, small
shop with basic requirements. Datastream 7i is optimal in large,
asset-intensive environments and is also well suited for multinational
organizations that require high transaction volumes in multiple currencies
and languages. Datastream 7i is available for Microsoft SQL Server and
Oracle databases. Key features and modules of Datastream 7i include:
21 CFR Part 11: This feature enables compliance with 21 CFR Part 11 FDA
requirements for Electronic Records/Electronic Signatures in the
pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and personal care products industries. 21
CFR Part 11 includes electronic signatures, multiple approval levels, record
snapshots, a high level of security and configurability, and the ability to
track all changes and edits made to electronic forms or documents.
Databridge: Through Databridge™, Datastream 7i can integrate with third
party applications and receive and process data from external systems.
Datastream 7i Analytics: Datastream 7i Analytics provides in-depth, flexible
reporting and graphing capabilities to help users analyze key metrics,
forecast performance issues, and take preventive measures to optimize asset
performance.
Datastream 7i Buy: Datastream 7i Buy™, automates the process of procuring
industrial spare parts by connecting suppliers and buyers of industrial
spare parts through the Internet.
Datastream 7i Extended: Datastream 7i Extended utilizes a zero-footprint
HTML interface to offer functionality that addresses the most commonly used
functions such as work management, material management, and asset
management. Based on a J2EE infrastructure utilizing Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs)
and Web Services, Datastream 7i Extended offers functionality that is easier
to install, distribute and manage than most other Internet applications.
Datastream 7i Mobile: Datastream 7i Mobile enables customers to interface
with Datastream 7i through portable input devices, such as laptops, pagers,
cell phones, and personal digital assistants (PDAs). Users can create and
update work orders, book labor hours, define equipment relationships,
activate equipment warranties, record meter readings, and log inspection
results from the field.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): Through KPIs, users define and monitor
asset performance indicators, such as mean time between equipment failures,
without having to run reports. KPIs provide a snapshot of how assets are
performing against user-defined benchmarks.
Multi-Organization Security: For companies located in multiple countries
utilizing a variety of currencies and languages, Datastream 7i can create
multiple entities with one database. Each site within the organization is
able to view and edit its own data while using its own currency and
language.
Screen Designer: Screen Designer, included with Datastream 7i Extended, is
an editing tool that allows users to modify screen layout and create
user-defined fields without technical programming knowledge.
Warranty Management: This feature enables users to track both meter- and
date-based asset warranties and process warranty claims. Users can also
automatically track all work orders that have a potential claim. Datastream
7i retrieves the work orders for claim processing, posts specified meter
readings for claim and historical purposes, and tracks time-elapsed based
warranties.
Datastream 7i Architecture: Datastream 7i is an “n-tier” application,
comprised primarily of the client, application server, and database server,
completely designed and built using standard Internet protocols and
technologies. The client for Datastream 7i can be any standard Java-enabled
Web browser such as Internet Explorer 6.x. The client interacts directly
with the second tier application server, which manages all business logic
and workflow of the system. The Datastream 7i application server component,
based on Oracle technology, interacts with the third-tier database server,
which is responsible for storing all customer data.
Datastream 7i incorporates VeriSign digital certificates for authentication
and 128-bit SSL encryption to protect data being transmitted from the server
to the client. S-HTTP is also supported. Datastream 7i offers electronic
record generation and storage, electronic signature, back-end tamper
monitoring, preventive maintenance and inspection revision control, and an
extensive auditing and reporting suite. As a result, Datastream 7i offers
compliance tools for customers in the most stringent regulatory
environments, such as those required by the US Department of Energy and the
US Food and Drug Administration.
Datastream 7i is an open system that facilitates integration with
third-party systems via standard integration tools. The product is standards
compliant, supporting conventions such as Java, J2EE, Forms, Web services,
XML, LDAP, and SOAP.
Datastream 7i product revenues as a percentage of total revenues were
approximately 17%, 15% and 11% in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Total
Datastream 7i revenues, including product revenues and service and support
revenues were approximately 51%, 47%, and 35% in 2003, 2002 and 2001,
respectively.
