Over 150 warehouses worldwide rely on Motek’s Microsoft Windows-based Priya® Warehouse Management System (WMS), to drive productivity, efficiency and profits.

Beverly Hills, CA July26, 2006 —BEVERLY HILLS, CA – February 27, 2007 – Motek, creator of Priya®, the leading Microsoft Windows-based Warehouse Management System (WMS) , celebrated 15 years of technology and business leadership.

Founded in 1991, Motek's Tier 1 WMS Priya is in use supporting warehousing and distribution centers in industries as diverse as retail grocery, wholesale fresh produce, public utilities, and Third Party Logistics. Motek was founded for the sole purpose of developing Priya, warehouse management software designed to control the entire warehouse operation in facilities from 100,000 to 2 million square feet.

The Priya inventory management system has been recognized for its ground-breaking technology, including the use of intelligent hand held, forklift mounted, and Voice Recognition radio frequency mobile computers. “Bill Gates wanted to put a computer on every desk. Our mission is to give computers to people without desks.” says Motek CEO Ann Price.

Ann Price explains the Motek uniqueness: “Motek is different from other WMS vendors. Motek’s Priya is the only true product in this market. All Motek customer sites run the same code making support and upgrades easy. Priya’s Rules Based architecture allows customers to custom configure Priya to support their unique operational needs without requiring custom code modifications.”

Motek is the only company with a single solution that meets the needs of both public and private warehousing, from tracking third party logistics to inventory and billing. Priya’s technology has been recognized by and is on permanent display at the "Information Age" exhibit at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.

To avoid obstacles encountered in traditional software implementation projects, Motek designed, Tycan®, a standardized methodology that speeds initial implementation and enabling customers to deploy Priya WMS in additional facilities with no help from Motek. Tycan is a detailed “cookbook” with a 21 step process that takes customers from “contract sign to go live”. Tycan ensures Priya projects are delivered on time and on budget. Tycan repeatedly results in heroes when customers recognize their employees for successful Priya implementations. Priya is sold without the need for modifications or complex tool kits that require customers to modify the system. Priya’s technology, rule based functionality, Tycan, and Priya’s Import/Export Module give Priya the lowest total cost of ownership numbers of any Tier 1 WMS in the industry. “We started Motek with the belief that small companies can innovate and lead while treating customers and employees better than most Fortune 500 enterprises.” said Ann Price, CEO of Motek. “By attracting and retaining best-in-class talent, our customers are assured they receive the support and service they need, before, during and after a sale.”

Motek and Priya customers have received numerous accolades, including the Bank of America Spirit of Innovation Award; the Employer of Choice® and Working Woman's Best Employer Award; The 2005 Microsoft Pinnacle Award, the Inbound Logistics Top 100 Logistics Company Award, ID Systems’ Supply Chain Innovator Award; two time Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year Award, and five time Deloitte & Touche’s Fast 50Award. CEO Ann Price has been recognized by The Wall Street Journal and “Good Morning America” for her innovative management practices, and was featured in the book, Lean and Meaningful.
