Volvofinans Selects BluePhoenix Value-Driven Modernization Solution to Accelerate
Delivery of Credit Card Application Features for Customers, Reduce TCO by 40%

COPENHAGEN, Denmark & HERZLIA, Israel – March 19, 2007 – BluePhoenix Solutions (NASDAQ: BPHX), the leader in value-driven legacy modernization, today announced that it was selected by Volvofinans Group, which is jointly owned by Ford and Volvo dealers, to modernize its mission-critical credit system.

The system is used by 70 dealers in Sweden and interfaces with over 100 vendors. By modernizing this core back office application to Java, Volvofinans will be able to deliver new application features for customers more quickly and respond rapidly to changing business requirements. The company also expects to lower the credit card system’s Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by 40% annually.

Volvofinans Group has assets of more than $3.4 billion. The organization supports the sales of Volvo and Renault products by providing credit, loans and leasing. With over one million credit cards in circulation, the Volvo card is one of Sweden’s most popular credit cards and can be used to buy anything from cars and tires to gas and candy.

“Our motivation for undergoing a full platform migration was to build the future foundation of our business and improve our work procedures, while saving on the IDMS database maintenance costs,” said Arne Hansson, IT Manager, at Volvofinans IT AB. “We chose BluePhoenix Solutions for its tool’s capability to preserve application business logic, while moving to a modern environment. The modernized application will allow faster development of new application features so that we can more rapidly respond to our customers’ needs.”

Using BluePhoenix™ DBMSMigrator for ADSO/IDMS to Java, BluePhoenix Solutions will automatically migrate Volvofinans’ proprietary application from z/VM/ADSO/IDMS to Linux/Java/DB2 UDB. BluePhoenix will transform language, database, user interface and platform, resulting in a complete modernized environment.

Volvofinans Group chose the BluePhoenix Solutions tool because of its ability to migrate IDMS/ADSO applications to a relational database environment, without compromising the quality, performance, or the future scalability of the database and the migrated application. The enhanced development environment will provide more flexibility and application development speed with reduced maintenance costs and dependence on aging technologies and diminishing skills set.

“Many companies like Volvofinans Group are facing a ‘legacy dilemma’,” said Theis Eichel, general manager, Northern and Central Europe at BluePhoenix Solutions. “Their systems are inflexible, proprietary and expensive to maintain, yet they are mission critical. If one stops working, business may grind to a halt. BluePhoenix is addressing this issue by creating tools like DBMSMigrator for ADSO/IDMS to Java to modernize legacy applications without decommissioning them. For Volvofinans this means reduced development time, increased scalability and improved flexibility to better meet customer requirements.”

DBMSMigrator for ADSO/IDMS to Java can be deployed on any Java/J2EE supported operating systems such as Unix, Linux, Windows, z/OS (IBM mainframe), and OS/400 (iSeries, formerly AS/400) accessing any relational database.
