DTCI is a strategic logistics improvement program directed by the United
States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) within the Department of Defense
(DoD), with the goal to streamline and modernize domestic transportation and
distribution operations for all four branches of the United States military.

One Network will be the sole provider of transportation management
software applications and services to Menlo in support of DTCI. One Network
joins a strong team of leading technology, software and service providers
participating in Menlo's winning proposal for the DTCI program, including
Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC), selected to provide IT infrastructure
hosting, network management and integration services and Olgoonik Logistics,
which will provide professional services supporting the participation of
minority-owned and small business firms as service contractors for DTCI.
Under the prime contract, potentially worth US$1.6 billion, an integrated
logistics solution is being delivered for shipment planning, optimization,
shipment execution and overall transportation resource management, governing
Department of Defense material shipments in the 48 contiguous United States.

"DTCI is a critical program and we're proud to be partnered with Menlo,
CSC and Olgoonik. This award is a strong testimony to the success of our
Demand-Driven Transportation suite," stated Greg Brady, One Network Chief
Executive Officer. "USTRANSCOM has a clear mission to improve service level
delivery and reduce costs and an equally clear vision for the deployment of a
next-generation transportation solution that will manage, unify and optimize
the end-to-end process for domestic military logistics operations."

The program will deploy One Network's Demand-Driven Transportation
software suite, a proven solution in use by more than 2,800 customers to
manage over US$150 billion in annual trade. The solution includes highly
functional Transportation Applications, including strong capabilities for
optimization of freight volumes and networks, a powerful software
infrastructure for multi-enterprise collaboration and transaction management
and a high performance global trading network that unites the user and
service provider trade community.

Benefits from the DTCI program are expected to include increased
operational efficiencies and cost savings, as well as better visibility of
freight movements. The improved visibility will enable more effective
planning and execution across modes of transportation, enabling USTRANSCOM to
better meet customer delivery expectations.

"One Network's next-generation Transportation Management suite was a
principal component of our integrated solution proposal," said Andy Dyer,
Vice President, Menlo Worldwide Government Services. "Their advanced
optimization capabilities, coupled with a powerful network-based architecture
will play a fundamental role in the successful deployment of this
mission-critical technology platform for DTCI."
