Höhr-Grenzhausen, 24th October 2011: Control China is a subsidiary

international trade fair in the field of quality management.

From the 23rd to the 25th August 2011, around 90 exhibiters and 18

m2 of exhibition space in Shanghai, in order to present products and
solutions in quality assurance for the automotive, mechanical
engineering, tool and mould-making, aviation and shipbuilding
sectors. The number of exhibitors rose in comparison to 2010 by 28
percent, whilst the exhibition space doubled. And there was also a
significant increase in visitor numbers in comparison to the previous
year. In all, 3878 trade visitors attended from 17 countries,
equating to a rise of 84 percent.

Mr Jiang Zhihua from the Shanghai Institute of Measurement and
Testing Technology (SIMT) remarked: "I am truly delighted that we in
China now have a special meeting place for the quality industry.
Everyone has learned something new and developed themselves further.
I hope that I will be able to organise more rounds of expert
discussions for this trade fair in the future". Representatives of
the China Automotive Engineering Society Testing & Measuring
Committee also lauded Control China.

Numerous forums, seminars and workshops were concerned with new
technologies and innovations in the field of quality assurance. Here,
individual problems were presented, explained and discussed. In this
context, speakers and discussion holders for IBS Shanghai included
Robert Frank, General Manager of the Association for the Automotive
Industry - Quality Management Center in China and Arnd Slegers,
Managing Director Asia Pacific for IBS Industrial Business Software
(Shanghai), Ltd. who spoke of VDA standard first sample stage
customer complaints and how IBS software solutions support this VDA
standard.

Today, the IBS Group is already able to point to around 70 software
installations in the South East Asian region. The IBS customer
TIANJIN NEW WEI SAN INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD. (NWS), with its head office
in Tianjin (China), is fitted out with the complete software suite
from IBS AG. In a further lecture, Ray T. Lin, Quality Assurance
Director at NWS presented his practical experiences with the IBS
software solutions.

"Our expectations for Control China were entirely fulfilled. We were
happily able to once again increase on the number of interested
contacts in comparison to the previous year. China continues to boast
the largest car market in the world and as such, the interest in our
automotive solution was once again high this year. Due to the heavy
demand, we created a networking platform for all interested parties
at the end of the trade fair and organised an automotive round table.
In addition to numerous interested parties, this was attended by
representatives of VDA as well as existing IBS customers. Due to the
positive feedback, the organisation of a regular round table is now
under consideration", according to Nina Yvonne Slegers, General
