Wonderware Receives Control Engineering Editors' Choice Award for eCompliance Solution for Food Safety

LAKE FOREST, Calif., Jan. 18, 2006 -- Wonderware, a business unit of Invensys Systems, Inc., today announced that Control Engineering magazine has selected the Wonderware eCompliance Solution for its 2005 "Editors' Choice Award."

Since 2000, Wonderware has received five Editors' Choice Awards for a variety of industry-leading products and technology innovations. Award winners are selected from among new products and solutions featured in issues of Control Engineering, Control Engineering Online or one of Control Engineering's topical e-newsletters.

The January 2006 edition showcases the Editors' Choice Award for products covered by the publication in 2005. Wonderware's eCompliance Solution is highlighted in the magazine's special awards supplement.

"Complying with U.S. Food and Drug Administration requirements will continue to be an important issue in coming years for food-processing companies," said David Greenfield, Control Engineering editorial director. "Wonderware's eCompliance Solution was recognized for features that enable customers to address regulations issued by the FDA, which are designed to deal with any emergency involving the nation's food supply by keeping current, accurate records of every ingredient or component that goes into processed food products."

The Wonderware eCompliance Solution enables food companies to meet the reporting and record-keeping rules required by the FDA and offer food-processing companies of any size a cost-effective tracking system for the food manufacturing process. It's designed to help food-processing companies address FDA regulations for the establishment, maintenance and availability of records under 21 CFR, Part 1, Subpart J. The regulations affect more than 200,000 manufacturing, wholesale and packaging sites in the U.S.

Electronic records greatly simplify and accelerate the data-gathering process. The Wonderware eCompliance Solution gives manufacturers new tools to improve operational performance, traceability and downtime tracking in addition to complying with the new reporting regulations.

"Recognition from Control Engineering emphasizes Wonderware's objective to provide an application of standard products that not only makes the important task of complying with FDA tracking and tracing requirements simple, but affordable, secure, paperless, easy-to-use and quick to deploy, regardless of the companies' existing business and/or operations systems," said Jay Jeffreys, Wonderware's program manager for the eCompliance Solution. "Wonderware will continue its efforts to provide customers with the latest technology to address the FDA's requirements for establishment, maintenance and availability of records for all food-processing, transportation and distribution companies."

As one of 45 Editors' Choice Award winners, Wonderware's eCompliance Solution additionally will compete for Control Engineering's prestigious "Engineers' Choice Award," to be announced at the National Manufacturing Week trade show in March 2006. Control Engineering will survey its subscribers to select winners for the Engineers' Choice Award.
