Elite Document Solutions, Inc. and Vanguard Systems, Inc. Form an Alliance to Offer a Complete Electronic Document Management and Storage Solution for the iSeries (AS/400)

Lake Forest, California (June 14, 2002) - Elite Document Solutions, Inc. today announced an alliance with Vanguard Systems, Inc. based in Media, PA. Through this alliance, Elite Document Solutions and Vanguard Systems will offer clients an integrated seamless electronic document processing and distribution solution, the eliteSUITE and the IMS/21 archive/retrieval and imaging solution for electronic document storage.

Elite Document Solutions’ eliteSUITE software runs natively on the IBM iSeries (AS/400) and offers users a two time award winning solution for the automated processing, management and distribution of electronic business-critical documents. The eliteSUITE provides the basic merge operation of the iSeries (AS/400)-spool files or database files are merged with user defined forms. Intuitive pop-up menus easily prompt users for the characteristics of each form or check application processed. Users of the software have the ability to intelligently route their business documents to laser or MICR compatible printers, e-mail and fax, graphically view or post to worldwide web.

"The iSeries (AS/400) industry has been asking for the ability to archive electronic documents merged with graphical form overlays for years. The problem has always been the indexing and archiving compatibility of graphical spool files or rather archiving the data with the form overlay. We have responded by establishing this alliance with Vanguard Systems." says Andy Rackauckas, President of Elite Document Solutions, Inc. "We’ve researched the market and have found that Vanguard’s IMS/21 software is an excellent product and complements our system well."

"This strategic partnership will allow both Vanguard Systems’ IMS/21 clients and Elite Document Solutions’ eliteSUITE clients to eliminate pre-printed forms and checks, streamline business-critical document processing while seamlessly bringing together the IMS/21 archive/retrieval and imaging solutions, for the elimination of paper based filing systems. This includes scanned documents, imported images and reports and now electronic forms." say Dave Engberg, President of Vanguard Systems."
