Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia Chooses Quintiq Strategic Planning Solution to Improve Efficiency and Reduce Costs

MELBOURNE, Australia, January 5 - Quintiq, a leading provider of Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS)
solutions, today announced that the Queensland section of the Royal Flying
Doctor Service of Australia (RFDS), one of the largest and most comprehensive
aero-medical organizations in the world, has selected Quintiq to supply it
with a multi-resource planning solution. The Quintiq solution will unify
RFDS' planning processes so it will be able to optimally utilize its prime
resources and reduce administrative expenses associated with planning.

RFDS, a non-profit organization supported by the Commonwealth and State
Governments, employs the latest in aviation, medical and communications
technologies to deliver extensive primary health care and 24-hour emergency
service to people throughout the remote areas of Australia. In Queensland,
RFDS has a fleet of 17 aircraft operating from 7 bases located across the
state and conducts more than 80,000 patient consultations per year.

The Quintiq solution will help RFDS improve efficiencies and reduce costs
in multiple ways. Having a unified planning system throughout the
organization will facilitate wider use of resources by enabling better
cooperation and communication between the numerous bases. The improved
resource utilization will reduce RFDS' need for external resources, such as
accommodation and chartered aircraft. And, by integrating the planning
processes, the solution will give RFDS' managers access to more consistent
information for improved decision making. Additionally, Quintiq will replace
labor-intensive planning processes currently performed by RFDS' planners,
thereby lowering labor expenses, reducing administrative inefficiencies and
eliminating errors that traditionally occur with manual rostering processes.

"We selected Quintiq as a strategic planning tool to help us unify our
planning processes and reduce overall costs," said Nino Di Marco, CEO of RFDS
(Queensland Section). "We are seeing demand for our services grow through the
provision of a broader range of services to a growing number of people. We
are very confident that Quintiq will support our growing needs well into the
future."

Paul Shepherd, Business Unit Director at Quintiq, added, "The Royal
Flying Doctor Service is an Australian icon known throughout the world. We
are very pleased to be supporting them in reducing costs and improving
efficiencies as we know that the results will benefit so many people. We look
forward to making this a successful project for them as we continue toward
being the multi-resource planning solution of choice."

The Quintiq team is implementing the solution with completion expected in
February, 2010.
