Press Release Summary: Hertzler Systems White Paper Describes Role of Real-Time Data
Improving Profitability

Press Release Body: Hertzler Systems has released a new white paper describing the
role of real-time data in improving profitability and customer satisfaction in
manufacturing businesses. The white paper, grounded in data uncovered in independent
research by the Aberdeen Group, provides additional insights into the key drivers of
best-in-class performance.

Hertzler Systems Inc. announced the release of a new white paper on the role of
real-time data in improving profitability and customer satisfaction. The white paper
is based on independent research by the Aberdeen Group, a Harte-Hanks Company
(NYSE:HSS), and identifies the top drivers of Best-in-Class performance among
manufacturing companies.

Evan Miller, President of Hertzler Systems explained: \"We wrote the white paper to
offer additional guidance for understanding the Aberdeen report on Event Driven
Manufacturing Intelligence. As we parsed the data ourselves we found some
interesting insights that didn’t ‘leap off the page’ at us on the first read.
Specifically, we found that ready access to actionable real-time data is a key
driver of Best-in-Class business performance.\"

The research data show that Best-in-Class performers enjoy a 33% higher profit
margin than average and laggard performers. “What we wanted to know,” said Miller,
“is what Best-in-Class manufacturers do that is different from the other groups. We
now have clear answers to this question.”
