Press Release Summary = New Project Manager Part of aPriori Technologies Cost
Management Implementation Team

Press Release Body = The aPriori cost management platform uses innovative, patent
protected technologies, and is capable of using design information driven off of
MCAD geometry. Additionally the ability to model production facilities (including
machine capabilities, raw materials, and facility cost structure) and the specific
cost accounting methodologies, accurate predictive, allow "forward looking" real
time cost estimates.

The firm anticipates huge staff growth for the remainder of 2006. The firm is
presently looking to add Project Managers. A Project Manager is a key member in an
implementation team that delivers the aPriori cost management platform to a customer
and assists the customer, driving quantifiable value in their organization. Project
Managers are responsible for managing the timeline, project scope, and deliverables
to drive customer satisfaction and referenceability. They will collaborate with the
Account Executive to ensure the implementation plan is aligned with the overall
account strategy.
Implementations are typically short-term engagements lasting twelve weeks and
require a combination of working at the customer facility and at aPriori\'s Concord
office. 40 to 60% travel is required.
