Integral Systems Eases Customer Management of Satellite Ground Systems


New Enterprise Executive Dashboard Feature to Analyze and Display Critical System Data "At a Glance"

LANHAM, Md., Feb. 25 - Integral Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:ISYS), today announced the development of a new control system feature called the Enterprise Executive Dashboard. The dashboard is designed to provide customers the ability to quickly view and analyze critical data from across the entire ground system, apply strategic "business logic" to raw data, and generate/display key performance indicators using highly graphical and interactive web-based displays. The dashboard will be available for demonstration at the Satellite 2008 Conference and Exhibition in Washington, DC, during the week of February 25, 2008.

"There's a wealth of critical data available from different portions of the satellite ground infrastructure. If this data is properly mined, analyzed, and displayed, it can offer great value to executive managers and operations personnel," said Stuart Daughtridge, Executive Vice President of Integral Systems' Commercial Division. "We're confident that this Executive Dashboard will be a powerful tool that will allow our customers to exploit the benefits of Integral's integrated solutions, not just in their control centers, but in all aspects of their business."

Integral's strategy is to exploit the best features of interactive web technology, enterprise solutions, and fully integrated systems to benefit all aspects of complex satellite ground systems operations and applications.

To maximize development effectiveness, Integral Systems is using a dynamic and interactive approach. Integral has been working with customers to identify initial data and key performance indicators. An initial release of the Enterprise Executive Dashboard is slated for general availability later this year.
