IINT Indus

Indus International Inc. (NASDAQ: IINT), a leading Service Delivery Management solution provider, today announced that Entergy Corporation (NYSE:ETR) is standardizing on Indus solutions. Entergy, the second-largest nuclear generator in the U.S., signed a significant license and services contract to upgrade all work management and supply chain systems in its 10-unit nuclear fleet to the latest release of Indus' market-leading enterprise asset management (EAM) software for nuclear utilities. Based on the successful use of Indus solutions in their Southern fleet, Entergy decided to standardize the work processes across all of their nuclear facilities to help meet their high standards for safety, regulatory compliance, fleet management and operational excellence - as well as return on investment. Therefore, the company is replacing work management and supply chain systems from MRO Software and SAP in the company's unregulated Northeast nuclear stations with the Indus solution. Entergy is also upgrading the systems in their Southern nuclear stations with the latest Indus software and aligning all of the stations with a single Indus supply chain solution which will serve the entire organization. Indus intends to work with Entergy to implement Asset Suite's comprehensive functionality using a baseline approach to eliminate customizations. Indus Executive Vice President of Field Operations John Gregg said, "Our statistics show that approximately 70 percent of all nuclear generators in North America are Indus clients. This decision by Entergy, one of the most prominent nuclear generators in the country, continues our leadership and momentum in this industry as more and more utility companies standardize on Indus solutions. Indus is the obvious choice for companies like Entergy who need the flexibility to tailor business processes at multiple facilities as well as the scalability to standardize those processes across their fleet and their entire enterprise. An investment in Indus Asset Suite is an investment in their future."
