DOWNINGTOWN, PA - January 15, 2004 - ASSIST Corp., a leading solutions provider for the Process Manufacturing industry, announces that Odom's Tennessee Pride has gone live with ASSISTics in their Little Rock manufacturing plant. Tennessee Pride has replaced a homegrown manufacturing data collection system as part of its ADAGE 4.0 upgrade initiative.

"It was clear that Tennessee Pride needed a system that was supported across a larger installation base", says Charlie Pell, Director of Business Development at ASSIST. "Tennessee Pride was able to capitalize on much of the work that we had done elsewhere." ASSIST expects to further rollout ASSISTics in Little Rock in 2005.
