November 10, 2003 Lacey, WA -  PUMP-FLO Solutions (An Engineered Software Business), the leading provider of sizing, selection, and pricing configuration software for the fluid handling industry, today announced that Price Pump Company, a global industrial pump manufacturer, will license the PUMP-FLO Enterprise web and Windows-based software. Price Pump will implement the PUMP-FLO Enterprise software, named PSI (Price Selection Index), cooperate-wide to streamline the pump selection process for its global network of customers and sales reps.

"After evaluating other software vendors in the market, it was clear that the PUMP-FLO Enterprise software was the only solution for Price Pump Company," said Bob Piazza, President, Price Pump Company. "With its superior technology and countless large organizations running the PUMP-FLO Enterprise software, we know we are in good hands with PUMP-FLO Solutions today, and in the future."

"Price Pump Company selected PUMP-FLO Solutions based on our 20 plus years of experience producing best-in-class software solutions to size, select, and configure centrifugal pumps," said Justin Johnson, Product Manager, PUMP-FLO Solutions. "We look forward to working with such a forward thinking pump company."

Users of the PSI software can select, evaluate, and analyze centrifugal pumps using the Price's electronic pump catalogs. PSI uses a powerful web-based search engine to select all the pumps that meet the user's specific criteria, from which, they can select the best pump for the application. After searching the chosen catalog, ePUMP-FLO then creates a list of pumps meeting the desired criteria. Pump curves can then be displayed for comparison and evaluation.

PUMP-FLO software is currently used by over 70 pump manufacturers and 65,000 customers in various industries.
