Burlington, MA — April 12, 2007 — Enigma Inc., an aftermarket service and support technology provider, has signed a formal teaming and distribution agreement with Hansen Information Technologies, a supplier of application software to help manage transportation industry and local government transit and rail operations.

The two companies are offering a joint solution based on the Enigma InService EPC (electronic parts catalog) product and Hansen's Spear 4i Enterprise Asset Management technology. The joint offering, which is specifically tailored for transit and rail operations, will be directly embedded in the Hansen kiosk maintenance application, providing up-to-date and accurate service information for engineering departments and service technicians.

InService EPC operates from within the Spear 4i maintenance application, allowing maintenance and materials personnel to find, view, select and order required materials while in the work order form. It is designed to be used by people involved in maintenance, inventory and purchasing activities, and has the ability to create a parts list to be used on material requests. It allows users to drill down into further detail from a digital image of a vehicle or equipment item or table of contents.

Enigma said that its InService EPC integrated with Spear 4i enables service technicians to view parts and drawings as electronic images that include "hot spots," allowing the user to select items in an image and automatically link to a parts catalog with inventory and procurement details. The combined solution also offers centralized access to maintenance procedures, hazardous material data sheets, training videos, collaboration, best practices and the ability to order materials against a specific work order.

"We are excited about this partnership and joint product, which will provide the transit and rail industry with a one-stop shop for maintenance planning, scheduling and asset tracking, as well as parts and service information. The end result will be increased equipment uptime, improved maintenance efficiencies and reduced parts mis-orders," stated Jonathan Yaron, CEO of Enigma.
