AVEVA Announces Stronger Partnership With Z+F

CAMBRIDGE, England, January 18 - AVEVA (LSE:AVV) and Z+F are pleased to announce a stronger technical and
commercial partnership, focused on delivering new levels of integration and
productivity between laser scanning, detailed design and asset management.

Z+F specializes in 3D laser scanning and was one of the first companies
to release a phase based laser scanner and subsequently invented the world's
1st stand alone 3D laser scanner.

AVEVA's stronger technical partnership with Z+F will enable AVEVA and Z+F
to transform the efficiency of producing intelligent 3D CAD models from laser
data, drastically reducing the time and cost of producing intelligent AVEVA
PDMS 3D models.

Working together will also allow high definition, photo-realistic laser
images to be quickly and easily hot-spotted, linked to other plant data and
accessed over the web in AVEVA's asset information management solution AVEVA
NET.

Derek Middlemas, Group Operations Director of AVEVA, comments: "We are
delighted to strengthen our relationship with Z+F. Owner Operators are always
looking for ways to better manage their assets. 'As-is' 3D models are
becoming a popular method of achieving this aim, however for many this is
still not viable due to the time and costs involved creating 'as-is' 3D
models. Working with Z+F, AVEVA will offer a solution which significantly
reduces the time and cost of producing 'as-is' 3D models, making 3D models
accessible to all asset management programs."

SPAR 2010

Z+F and AVEVA will be exhibiting at the SPAR 2010 conference, which aims
to provide professionals with fresh information and insights about the 3D
imaging industry. To find out more about how Z+F and AVEVA will be working
together why not visit them at the SPAR 2010 conference to be held in Houston
during February 8 - 10 2010.
