mySAP ERP ECC6.0 Upgrade and Customer Information System (CIS) for Pittsburgh Water
and Sewer Authority (PWSA)

Press Release Body = FOLSOM (California, USA), July 31st 2007 -- ea consulting, Inc.
(ea), a leading IT service provider and a certified SAP Services Partner, today
announced a successful "go live" of the mySAP ERP ECC6.0 and Customer Information
System (CIS) integrated solutions for the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority
(PWSA), Pennsylvania.

PWSA has chosen the latest version of SAP (MySAP ERP ECC 6), which involves the
upgrade of the full suite of modules in use presently for their Financial, Supply
Chain, Work Orders, Asset Management, Utility Billing and Customer Services
operational needs. These include Pre Upgrade Review, Functional Gap Analysis and
Resolution, Blueprint Revision, System and Infrastructure Upgrade, Testing,
Documentation, and Training.

PWSA wanted to take advantage of the new system architecture and functionality and
establish a foundation to build many of the technological enhancements they have
slated for the future. The SAP ERP ECC6.0 upgrades combines the powerful
industry-specific functionality such as efficiently handling meter-reading data with
customer care and service capabilities, the ability to increase levels of
responsiveness and customer satisfaction among water utility customers.

PWSA has been a valued client of ea since 2002. ea has implemented the first SAP ERP
and CIS integrated solutions for PWSA through the deployment of ea's UtilityWorks.
PWSA was one of the first in the industry to use UtilityWorks solution, an SAP
Template implementation strategy which is becoming more popular now with mid-tier
utility companies. It helps PWSA to accelerate the system installation process with
minimal risk. ea continues to be the Application Service Provider (ASP) for PWSA. ea
also hosts PWSA's integrated system by providing hardware, system administration,
24-hour customer care and data center services that include functional and technical
support. This solution has successfully provided PWSA with a simple and
cost-effective alternative to manage PWSA's back-office system.

"We are extremely appreciative and proud to be trusted again by PWSA for this
important upgrade. We have forged a strong relationship with the organization, and
believe that we have solid understanding of PWSA's culture, its operations, as well
as their business challenges and needs." said Kirk Kuzirian, General Manager, ea.

ea has proven track records of successes, highly skilled consultants and support
team, aggressive approach, full commitment and reputation for on-time delivery. In
addition, ea, as a CMMI® Level-5 certified company reiterates our promise to deliver
\"first-world services at third world prices\". ea integrates the CMMI® Level-5 and
ISO 9001:2000 industry standard process framework into every aspect of their work,
including business development, software and hardware implementation, and a variety
of managed and support services. With tools and skills like these, ea will be able
to help PWSA manages their operations and customer care capabilities more
effectively. It allows PWSA to stay more focus on strategic business objectives such
as Excellent Customer Service, Cost Management, Security and Environmental
Compliance, and to meet the challenges of deregulation head-on.

"This is truly an exciting project. This is one of the first utility upgrade in the
US as well as being an early worldwide upgrade for the new SAP ECC 6 version."
concluded CK Wong, Chief Executive Officer, ea.
