SourceCode demonstrates powerful extension of Microsoft Office System at the Microsoft Office System Developers Conference 2006

REDMOND, Wash., March 20 / -- SourceCode Technology Holdings, Inc., creator of K2.net(TM) the industry-leading business process management (BPM) software for Microsoft .NET, today announced plans to showcase both the current and future release of K2.net at the second annual Microsoft Office System Developers Conference in Redmond, WA this week. Developers from around the world are expected to attend this premier, invitation-only Microsoft Office system event keynoted by Bill Gates, chairman and chief software architect at Microsoft Corp., as well as Kurt DelBene, corporate vice president of the Office Server Group of Microsoft Office System.

As a Gold Sponsor of the Conference, SourceCode will demonstrate the current seamless integration to the Microsoft Office system and how it significantly enhances the process automation experience and ability to rapidly build .NET-based solutions with BPM capabilities that help customers solve significant business challenges. Moreover, SourceCode will provide an early preview of the next release of K2.net, code name "BlackPearl." BlackPearl is scheduled for general availability by late 2006.

SourceCode's current release, K2.net 2003(TM) (K2.net) enhances and extends the Microsoft Office system platform, and thus helps customers derive significant value from their investments, by leveraging K2.net's powerful, proven and seamless process automation software across a range of Microsoft products. This includes out-of-the-box, wizard-driven integration to Microsoft Office system 2003 to enable customers to maximize the value and potential impact related to the enhanced desktop environment, forms-driven process solutions with InfoPath and collaboration and content management solutions driven by SharePoint products and technologies.

With the introduction of the 2007 Microsoft Office system release the foundation has been laid for a significantly enhanced user experience. The expansion of ECM capabilities within the 2007 Microsoft Office system release will make it even easier for future K2.net releases to integrate process with a rich set of server-based Office system APIs. This powerful combination will be a compelling driver for adoption of pervasive process automation within organizations. "SourceCode's K2.net® "BlackPearl" will provide a powerful pairing of ECM and BPM by unifying assets across the .NET platform. It comes down to leveraging the power of the Office System with our next release of K2.net to empower both technical and business users to take ownership of, and participate in business process related initiatives in the organization," said SourceCode CEO, Adriaan van Wyk.

"Microsoft is pleased to have SourceCode sponsor our event and showcase their K2.net plans and continued innovation on the Microsoft Office system," said Seth Patton, Group Product Manager for Office Partners at Microsoft. He added, "Its current and planned seamless integration to technologies such as SharePoint, and enhancement of our platform with powerful BPM capabilities add significant value for customers and partners seeking get more out of their current Microsoft investments and solve real business problems."

"Ultimately, our goal is for K2.net® 'BlackPearl' to enable customers to rapidly build and effectively manage business process driven solutions in a more robust and meaningful way than ever before. We are pleased to showcase this latest K2.net innovation on the Microsoft platform to the valued developer community," stated van Wyk.
