RANCHO CORDOVA, CA, May 6, 2005 – Hansen Information Technologies (Hansen®) today announced the City of Arvada, Colorado, has gone live with Hansen Sewer, Storm, Customer Service and Fieldworks solutions. Hansen's Certified Consulting Partner, Eskel Porter Consulting Inc., was awarded a contract to provide and implement Hansen's software solution for their Public Works Department, Wastewater Division.

Eskel Porter worked closely with Arvada's Public Works Department, Wastewater Division to provide expert consultation that helped them determine Hansen's Version 7 and FieldWORKS as the best enterprise solution to enhance their sewer, storm and customer service operations. With a population of 103,000 citizens, the benefits of implementing Hansen for Arvada, will offer increased citizen satisfaction through improved automated workflows, office integration and tracking and processing of service requests. The contract calls for Eskel Porter to implement data conversion, GIS integration, and training and report development.

"The key to our success has been Eskel Porter's expert consulting and follow-through of installation and data conversion. Eskel Porter has also provided exceptionally effective training for our varied staff and their levels of computer experience, especially with the change to a new program," said Pete Adler, Wastewater Superintendent, City of Arvada, CO. "The installation of the Hansen software has been easier than we anticipated. The Hansen system is everything I had hoped for and envisioned when we started looking at integrated databases four years ago. The services provided by Eskel Porter on behalf of Hansen have exceeded our expectations."

"We are very excited to hear about the success the City of Arvada is having with the Hansen Sewer and Storm software solutions," said Mitch Bradley, Managing Director, Assets. "This project is a milestone in the growth of Hansen's Business Partner Program. Eskel Porter Consulting has been a Certified Hansen Partner for only 10 months and is already implementing projects without Hansen's assistance. We expect to hear many more great things from both Arvada and Eskel Porter."
