Paris , La Défense, July 20, 2006

ORSYP, the worldwide enterprise job scheduling and job management solutions provider, has posted consolidated sales of 24 million Euros (US$ 28.9 million), and an increased EBIT of 134% to 2,863k Euros (US$ 3,456k). Its status as a global player is enhanced by the significant contribution made by all eleven subsidiaries to the group’s profits.

ORSYP has expanded its global market share by securing a number of significant accounts, including Bearing Point (US), Mondrian Investments Partners (UK), Vodafone (Italy), Systema 4B (Spain), Areva and Saint Gobain (France), and Visana (Switzerland). Additionally, the company recorded a 33% growth in the US.

“ORSYP today enjoys its position as a key player in the job scheduling market, with a mature and international approach, so I think that ORSYP has reached a decisive point in its history and is ready to start the next chapter”, said Jean-Jacques PARINET, ORSYP Founder and Chairman.
