Release Date: July 10, 2006

(Morris Plains, NJ) July 10, 2006 – Quality Technology Solutions, Inc. (QTS) today announced that it is participating, along with several QTS customers, in Microsoft's Rapid Deployment Program for Office 2007.

Under the Office 2007 Rapid Deployment program, Microsoft customers are actively beta testing Office 2007, the next release of the Microsoft Office System, to identify potential problems and compatibility issues so they can be resolved prior to commercial release of the product.  QTS is providing project management services and coordinating efforts with its customers and Microsoft, as well as helping customers develop specific business solutions based on Office 2007.

As part of the Rapid Deployment program, QTS is working with these customers to build solutions using new features and capabilities in Office 2007, which has both desktop and server components.  QTS and those customers will participate with Microsoft in promotional and media events during the Office 2007 product launch, including preparing case studies and other communications.

"We're enjoying the opportunity to work with several of our key customers and Microsoft in this important product launch," noted QTS President and CEO Neil Rosenberg.  "This is the most significant release of Office since 1995, with huge opportunities for productivity improvements and for developing new, innovative solutions.  Microsoft has redesigned the look and feel of Office 2007 to make it a much easier product to use for novice computer users, but also to make more complex tasks much easier than prior versions of Office.  Power users will see huge time savings from this product, and be able to create high quality, great looking documents, spreadsheets and presentations much easier than before."

QTS is working with HealthSTAR Communications, a leading provider of comprehensive, integrated marketing services to healthcare clients, to build a new system based on Office 2007 to streamline and standardize the process of responding to RFP requests.  The solution, leveraging Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Microsoft Word 2007, will allow HealthSTAR to rapidly build proposals from a standard library of response language, significantly reducing the time and cost involved in preparing RFP responses while improving consistency and quality.  "We're very excited about the new capabilities in Office 2007, particularly around XML support and the broad new features in SharePoint," noted Lloyd Chesney, IT Director at HealthSTAR.  "These tools will allow us to build solutions much more quickly and cost-effectively, while improving staff productivity for basic tasks."

QTS is also working with other customers to build an automated system for managing the process of requesting computer services for new employees, and a start-of-the-art integrated attorney workstation based on Windows Vista and Office 2007 for a leading NY law firm.  Both solutions will be deployed by QTS, along with HealthSTAR's RFP response system, prior to general availability of Office 2007 this fall.

"QTS' relationship with Microsoft extends well beyond deploying our products," noted Jemima Gaussaint, Microsoft's SMS&P Partner Account Manager for New Jersey.  "They provide feedback to our executives, they work with our product groups to improve product quality, work with us in developing joint campaigns and initiatives, and engage closely with us to help us partner with our customers and provide real solutions to their business problems.  QTS' teamwork in working with Microsoft, locally and nationally, is exceptional."

Microsoft is targeting commercial release of Office 2007, as well as the Vista release of the Windows operating system, for the fall of 2006.  QTS and Microsoft conducted a series of seminars in the Spring to help educate customers on these new products and how to streamline deployment of them across the business.  This series will be repeated in the Fall.  See www.QTSnet.com/events for QTS' event schedule, or contact your QTS Account Manager for more information.
