CONFERENCE PROMOTES INVESTMENTS IN TECHNOLOGY FOR
CHEMICAL AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY EXECUTIVES

Atlanta. June 9, 1999 – The consultants and contractors that serve the process industry have invested heavily in technology as a means to improve the performance of their industrial facilities in all of the phases of the plant lifecycle, from conceptual design through to plant operations and maintenance. Some of the most successful of these owner/operators in the chemical and pharmaceutical segments of the industry will meet at the Warwick Hotel in Philadelphia, September 26-28, 1999, for the first annual PlantSuccess Conference, organizer Carl Howk announced today.

PlantSuccess will benefit management personnel and owner/operators responsible for making and implementing the decisions that will impact how capital is invested in new plant and plant modifications, and how these capital projects are operated and maintained throughout the plant lifecycle. PlantSuccess also will benefit the vendors of applicable computer hardware and application software, plus consulting and services for plant engineering, procurement, construction, start-up, operations and maintenance.

Information Technology, coupled with the Internet as a delivery system will revolutionize the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Because of commitments to technology, the required work processes and well educated and motivated personnel, certain companies will be better prepared to take advantage of future capabilities. "Presentations led by senior managers from these owner/operators will educate all of us regarding the business imperatives the leaders have used, the obstacles they have faced, and how they have been successful. These companies are seeking major competitive advantages," Says Howk.

The conference format will include a welcome reception, daily luncheons and hospitality suites for the leading solutions providers. Charter Sponsors include A-E-C Automation Newsletter, Bentley Systems, sgi, Trinity Technologies and Visio Corp.
PlantSuccess presenters and sponsors will offer proven solutions to the ever increasing difficulty and expense of building the information asset and operating and maintaining the industrial plant facility.
