Tideworks Technology Teams with Computer Sciences Corporation to Provide Software for Military Terminal in North Carolina.

SEATTLE -- Special Consideration Given to Handling Explosive Ordnance 

Tideworks Technology, the leading provider of full-service terminal management and planning software solutions for terminal operators, announced today that it is part of a team led by Computer Sciences Corporation (NYSE:CSC) that was selected to provide Terminal Operating Support (TOS) application software to the Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point (MOTSU) in Southport, N.C. Implementation of the software at MOTSU is currently scheduled for the third quarter of 2004.

Tideworks' portion of the project includes implementing Mainsail Terminal Management System(R) and Spinnaker Planning Management System(R). Both are fully-integrated terminal operating and planning software solutions for marine terminals, intermodal yards and container depots. Tideworks will also integrate the two solutions with multiple external tracking systems. Both applications require broad customization to meet the unique requirements of MOTSU.

"We selected CSC's team in part based on the capability of the Tideworks software to provide a comprehensive systems solution efficiently and cost-effectively to meet the operational requirements of the military at MOTSU," said Mr. Sammie Wells, MOTSU TOS project manager for the (Military) Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC). "Tideworks is a leader in the terminal management industry, and we feel its software will be able to respond to the special requirements of MOTSU, including the tracking and handling of explosive material."

Tideworks' Spinnaker Planning Management System will be customized to meet the rigorous requirements for tracking and monitoring certain explosive characteristics or materials at MOTSU. The software will replace a predominantly manual and paper-based inventory control process. Mainsail will be customized to capture MOTSU's unique data fields and meet operational requirements of handling ammunition and explosive ordnance in a terminal setting.

"Computer Sciences Corporation is pleased to have Tideworks as a teammate in the effort to enhance software operations at MOTSU," said CSC's TOS Project Manager, Joe Creasy. "CSC's team recognizes the critical nature of this project to SDDC in its major initiative to incorporate and utilize commercial off-the-shelf software and products in various projects throughout the organization, many of which CSC has participated in over the past decade. The success of this program at MOTSU will contribute substantially to SDDC's objectives."

CSC's team was selected in a competitive review of offerors, including all major vendors of terminal management software. The team also includes Technical Solutions and Maintenance, Inc. of Alexandria, Va., and Tessada and Associates, Inc. of Springfield, Va.

MOTSU is the primary military port through which ammunition, arms and explosives for the Army and Air Force are shipped to overseas locations. The terminal is a major subordinate command of SDDC, which is headquartered in Alexandria, Va.

Located in Southport, N.C., MOTSU is over 8,500 acres in size, with approximately 6 miles of waterfront and 2,115 acres of buffer zone.
