Texada Software Inc. ("Texada") (TSX VENTURE:TXS) announced today that Mortenson
Construction (ranked 22nd in Engineering News Record "ENR" 2009 Top 400
Contractors listing) has successfully deployed Texada's Systematic Asset
Management system within their Equipment Facility network to manage their
construction assets throughout North America.


Mortenson performed a detailed evaluation process which initially started with
12 Asset Management software vendors prior to the eventual selection of Texada.
The key business drivers for Mortenson were the focus on construction asset
management, the ability to provide rental house functionality, and willingness
to provide Mortenson with key Texada support members that grew to understand the
Mortenson business model. In addition, Texada fully understood the need for
seamless integration with Oracle's ERP solution. 


"As part of Mortenson's continuous improvement process, we put a group of key
Team Members together from all stakeholder groups to design and configure the
product we needed. Our goal was to standardize and automate functions across all
of Mortenson's Equipment Facilities, replacing manual efforts wherever possible.
With the implementation of the SRM Software System, Mortenson is positioned to
manage inventory of company owned assets, consumables, equipment maintenance
records, equipment utilization and schedules, rental contracts, and services to
our project sites. These consistent processes and new functionality will deliver
a higher level of service to our customers, resulting in higher utilization of
the equipment we manage. Texada's team and solution aligned well with
Mortenson's goals," said Edgar Butsch, Director of Equipment Operations for
Mortenson's Construction. "Texada took the time to understand our needs and then
helped us deliver on our commitment to provide an integrated solution" commented
Cole Orndorff, CIO of Mortenson's Construction.

working closely with the Mortenson's team and are proud to have them part of the
Texada family", said Brian Spilak, President and CEO of Texada. "Mortenson's
Construction is a first class organization with a clear vision, focused on
improving internal processes and utilization of their fleet. We look forward to
