BluePhoenix Migrates Mission Critical Application for DaimlerChrysler

DaimlerChrysler's Parts Clarification System Successfully Put into Production

Frankfurt, Germany and Herzelia, Israel - July 21, 2004 - BluePhoenix Solutions (NASDAQ: BPHX), the leader in Enterprise IT Modernization, today announced that it has completed an application migration pilot project at DaimlerChrysler. The converted application, the Material-Abklärungs-System (MAS), a Parts Clarification System, was migrated from IDMS to CICS/DB2 using the automated BluePhoenix^TM DBMSMigrator tool. The application is used in multiple production sites to track quality and performance of parts used in production.

"As part of our overall plan to move to strategic and open technologies, we decided to move away from using IDMS. The product is approaching the end of its lifecycle and we expect maintenance costs to rise in addition to the creation of a shortage of professional IDMS programmers. We also wanted to establish the basis for J2EE, COGNOS, and .NET connectivity," said Hans-Jürgen Künzel, lead of the MAS Migration Team at DaimlerChrysler in Germany. "During this process, our primary objective was to protect our existing investment as the business logic inherent in the applications is still essential and supports some of our main business processes. BluePhoenix and DaimlerChrysler implemented the project smoothly using a step-by-step approach. We are very pleased with the results provided by the automated transformation process."

"We had to migrate one of DaimlerChrysler's mission critical application system, which includes more than 130 COBOL programs as well as JCL code, procedures, assembler programs, copybooks, maps and schema, "added Reinhard Wetzel, VP, Central Europe at BluePhoenix Solutions."

This project was structured in two phases to increase its efficiency and provide a cost-effective solution in a timely manner. We started with a full global assessment of DaimlerChrysler's IT system using our automated IT Discovery tool. Based on these results our professional Consultants and the DaimlerChrysler team finalized the baseline for the code conversion and database migration. These were performed using our automated DBMSMigrator solution that was adapted to DaimlerChrysler's IT requirements and business needs."
