SANTA ANA, CA - October 15, 2008 - Pipeline Group, Inc., today announced the release of Maxavera, a packaged solution for integrating IBM Maximo with Primavera.

"We were contacted by several companies asking if we could provide a Maximo-Primavera that was as robust and high performance as our well known SAP EAM -Primavera solution" said Justin Tyler, Director of Marketing Partnerships and Alliances at Pipeline, "organizations were unhappy with the current choices Maximo-Primavera integration."

Raju Patel, Chief Technology Officer at Pipeline, commented "Developing Maxavera was very straight forward. The product is built using our existing EAM integration platform, Pipeline Transporter, which has reliably processed millions of work control integration transactions to Primavera over the years."

"When we kicked off the development effort we code named the project 'Maxavera'." said Mr. Tyler, "we figured that if you're going to integrate Maximo and Primavera you may as well start by integrating their names. The team became so attached to name that we decided to stick with it."
