CHICAGO AREA-BASED RESELLER FEATURED ON NATIONAL TV SHOW

CHICAGO – June 16, 2009 – Business Technology Partners, a leading reseller of SYSPRO Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, announced today that a segment of the national TV Show, "The Economic Report," due to air nationally on selected TV cable channels throughout the summer of 2009, focuses on the successes that two customers have experienced utilizing SYSPRO software and BTP services. The interviews with Dave Heckler, president, Alliance Hose & Rubber, and Dan J. Maeir, president and CEO, Pelstar LLC, are introduced by show moderator Greg Gumbel and conducted by Todd Perlman, principal of BTP, based in Deerfield, IL.

In his introduction, Gumbel notes, "Doing business in a global marketplace can be a daunting task, especially for small to mid-size companies that have not had access to the technology that their larger counterparts have had…but with the availability of Enterprise Resource Planning systems, these small to mid-size companies can now have the same competitive advantages. Up until recently, small to mid-size companies could not afford this technology…Business Technology Partners works closely with small to mid-size companies in the service, manufacturing and distribution industries to ensure that they are taking advantage of the technology available today."

In the segment on Pelstar, a manufacturer of high-precision Health o meter® scales, Maeir notes that the company chose SYSPRO software in 2004 because it was "conducive to our size business" and because of high confidence that Business Technology Partners "…was the SYSPRO value added reseller who could help us achieve a successful implementation." Maeir summarizes the successes his company has attained with SYSPRO, "….the software has automated business processes and enhanced overall operational efficiency."

Heckler says that Alliance Hose & Rubber selected SYSPRO software "because it had the necessary features to build efficiencies into our processes." He states, "Alliance Hose has had significant growth over the past few years. [SYSPRO} and BTP have been an integral part of meeting our evolving technology needs as we grow." He lauds the excellent support provided by BTP over the years: "…By fully supporting our network hardware, BTP has eliminated the need for on-site IT personnel…they also advised us on network scanning, telephone system and wireless email."
