Company Information/Certification

Möglingen (euro adhoc) - USU AG, a provider of solutions for IT
service and knowledge management, has successfully passed an
examination of its conformance with the ITIL process for knowledge
management. Based on a comprehensive product review of USU
KnowledgeCenter 5.4, the expert examiners at Glenfis AG were able to
verify its in-depth compliance with the principles behind the ITIL
guidelines and its implementation of ITIL best practices. USU
KnowledgeCenter 5.4 is available as an in-house installation or
outsourced as SaaS.

Glenfis AG is a licensed assessor and partner of the APM Group (APMG)
for Europe. The APM Group Ltd is a leading accreditation,
certification and examination body with worldwide recognition. As
part of its strategic partnership with the British Office of
Government Commerce (OGC) the APM Group also issues licenses granting
the use of OGC trademarks, which include the one for ITIL. The IT
Infrastructure Library (ITIL) is a collection of best practices that
describe the most effective approaches to IT service management and
represent the de facto international standard in this area.

Furthermore, the nine core IT service management processes recently
added to the USU software suite Valuemation 4.2 also meet the strict
international accreditation guidelines of the APM Group (APMG). In
2009, Pink Elephant, the American provider of ITIL consulting and
certification services, had already awarded the coveted ITIL seal of
approval to the previous versions of both USU product lines,
confirming their fullest compliance with ITIL v2 and ITIL v3
standards.

"We´re very pleased to have received this certification from
independent experts, for this verified compatibility with the ITIL
standard gives our existing and potential customers security and
peace of mind when it comes to their critical business processes,"
stated Gerald Lamatsch, Member of the Board at USU AG.
