WHERENET CUSTOMER SUCCESS RESULTS IN NATIONAL RECOGNITION BY LEADING SUPPLY CHAIN PUBLICATIONS

Active RFID Technology Leader Continues its Annual Run of Garnering Industry Awards; Customers Cite WhereNet’s Strong ROI and Outstanding Customer Service

SANTA CLARA, Calif.—July 25, 2006—WhereNet Corp., the leader of wireless solutions for tracking and managing enterprise assets, announced today that Global Logistics & Supply Chain Strategies magazine — based on nominations from end users — has named WhereNet as one of its 100 Great Supply Chain Partners, marking the second straight year the company has received this honor. In addition, Supply & Demand Chain Executive magazine named WhereNet a Top 100 company for the third year in a row, while START-IT magazine included WhereNet on the START-IT 125, marking the fourth consecutive year that the company has been recognized by the publication.

Based on feedback from customers including APL and Ford Motor Company citing WhereNet’s technology innovation and outstanding customer service, Global Logistics & Supply Chain Strategies selected WhereNet as one of the Top 100 Great Supply Chain Partners. Featured in this month’s issue, the list is the result of a six-month poll of the magazine’s readers in which logistics and supply chain professionals nominated vendors whose technology, logistics, transportation, or consulting solutions have made a significant impact on their company’s efficiency, customer service, and overall supply chain performance. The magazine received more than 1800 qualified responses nominating more than 400 different companies.

“We have received dozens of awards over the years, but we are most proud of awards like the 100 Great Supply Chain Partners listing that are 100 percent end-user driven,” said Dan Doles, president and CEO of WhereNet Corp. “Our customer references speak volumes about the proven benefits of our active RFID-based applications that run mission-critical operations for the Global 2000.”

The June/July issue of Supply & Demand Chain Executive features WhereNet as a Top 100 Company, saluting leading providers of supply chain services and technologies who are at the forefront of innovation.  According to the magazine, “Through its active RFID Real-Time Locating System technology, WhereNet has connected mobile assets with the people and information systems charged with managing those assets on a minute-by-minute basis.”

The START-IT 125 salutes WhereNet among the most influential manufacturing technology providers as determined by the editors of START-IT magazine and editorial advisors. It is designed to provide a snapshot of the industrial market and the companies with the greatest impact on its direction.
