MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 8, 2001

New E-Commerce Site Allows CCRF to

Raise Donations and Sell Event Registrations Online

Analysts International (Nasdaq:ANLY), a leading provider of information technology consulting services, announced today that it has completed an e-commerce upgrade to the Web site for the Minnesota-based Children's Cancer Research Fund (CCRF) (www.childrenscancer.com), a non-profit organization dedicated to fighting childhood cancer. Seventeen Analysts International consultants donated about 100 hours each to develop the site, which allows the CCRF to expand its fundraising efforts to the Internet.

Launched December 6th, the new Web site gives CCRF a national reach for fundraising, providing the organization with a new avenue for reaching those that want to donate to the organization. Previously, CCRF was only able to accept donations by mail or phone. This online initiative allows CCRF to promote its efforts nationally.

"The deployment of a Web-based fundraising solution will significantly improve our ability to raise contributions nationally," says Kay Christianson, executive director of CCRF. "The Web site also expands our reach to a younger, Internet-savvy generation and allows us to sell event tickets and other items online. We are so thankful that Analysts International has taken on this project, and its consultants have done a fabulous job. The Web site is so much more than we ever could have hoped for."

Other partners in the development of the CCRF project are: Art Technology Group, Inc. (ATG) (Nasdaq:ARTG), which donated a software license to the ATG Dynamo(R) e-Business Platform on which the CCRF Web site was built; Dell Computer Corporation (Nasdaq:DELL), which donated the production server; and VeriSign, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRSN), which contributed a digital certificate to enable authenticated and encrypted communications for the CCRF server.

The national ATG practice of Analysts International developed the first phase of www.childrenscancer.com using ATG Dynamo(R), a Java-based e-business platform for online customer management and e-commerce. Analysts International joined ATG's premier-level partnership program in early 2000, and its practice has implemented ATG Dynamo for two national retail corporations and a global manufacturing corporation.

Analysts International consultants continue to donate their time to the second phase of the site's development, which includes online event ticket sales, registration, and targeted email campaigns.

"We have many talented technical experts in our ATG practice," says Angelia Brekke, general manager of Analysts International's eBusiness Solutions group. "Analysts is very pleased to be able to contribute to the CCRF cause. Our employees had a great time working on this project because they knew that they were making a difference."
