Press Release Summary = Pacific Scientific Sees 20% Increase in Inventory Turns with
Digital Kanban from Datacraft Solutions' Signum

Press Release Body = The Datacraft Solutions' digital kanban product, Signum,
received raves from Jim Malch, Director of Operations, Pacific Scientific, EKD:
\"Pacific Scientific Electro-Kinetics is excited over the short-term results achieved
with Signum in just 4 months. PS/EKD has forecasted a minimum of 20% increase in
inventory turns by year-end, and we\'ve seen a reduction in the transactional
processes that were necessary in the FAX Release system Signum replaced.\"

Ken McGuire from MEAC noted, "\"Why would any true LEAN Manufacturer invest big money
in software for managing Kanbans when what they really need is an effective Kanban
communications service? The evidence is mounting against the \'elusive\' systems with
ERP integration many IT people are promising and hoping for. When they are finally
achieved, if ever, they are found to be largely unnecessary and wasteful
administrative boondoggles. Forrester Research found that only 41% of business
executives at large manufacturing and distribution companies have realized any
perceptible ROI from implementing Supply Chain Systems.\"

A Materials Manager from a Tier 1 automotive supplier noted the impact of Digital
Kanban technology from Durham, NC based Datacraft Solutions: \"We scan over 5000
cards a day, have just added 1500 parts from out tool crib, and have had zero part
shortages since going live 3 months ago. Our inventory has reduced by approximately
$2,000,000.\"


Signum is the Digital Kanban tool from Datacraft Solutions, Inc.
(www.datacraftsolutions.com). According to Chairman Stephen Parker, "Datacraft
Solutions' Internet-based on-demand delivery platform offers key benefits from the
very beginning of an implementation - namely, the elimination of lengthy,
complicated and expensive infrastructure upgrades before a company can even begin to
see positive ROI. There is simply no faster or easier way to begin exploiting the
power of Digital Kanban in a lean manufacturing operation. The important of an
intelligent supply chain based on replenishment cannot be overestimated."
