KOM Networks and DOCS ETC… Inc Sign Partnership Agreement Ottawa ON, Canada - August 7, 2001 The partnership includes both technical development and marketing initiatives focused on optimally integrating KOM's versatile suite of products with DEI's electronic scanning and data management hardware and software. DEI initially implemented OptiStorm® , KOM's powerful optical storage software, in response to a customer need for a complete reorganization of its data storage infrastructure. OptiStorm® combines all the advantages of optical storage while retaining the access, convenience and functionality of hard disk drives. Operating on Windows NT/ 2000 platforms, OptiStorm® integrates into the operating system so seamlessly that users are completely unaware that they are accessing and storing data on optical drives. DEI chose OptiStorm® because of its unsurpassed ability to deliver long-term data integrity in a user-friendly fashion. DEI is a systems integrator that provides their customers with innovative and efficient workflow automation solutions. DEI achieves this by converting inefficient, obsolete and incompatible processes, whether they are paper-based or electronic, to fully integrated electronic systems. This requires a variety of hardware and software tools that are configured to each customer's needs.
