Price Waterhouse Offers Knowledge Management Solution to Sybase Warehouse
WORKS

EMERYVILLE, CA, August 7, 1995 -- Price Waterhouse Management Consulting
Services (MCS) and Sybase, Inc., The Enterprise Client/Server Company,
today announced that Price Waterhouse has joined the SYBASE Warehouse
WORKS Alliance Program to deliver interactive data warehousing solutions
for their mutual customers. The announcement was made in conjunction with
the DCI Data Warehousing Conference in Chicago, Illinois.

The SYBASE Warehouse WORKS Alliance Program is a part of SYBASE Warehouse
WORKS, a solution for addressing the broad range of technology
requirements for data warehouse development. By joining Price Waterhouse's
proven knowledge management services with Sybase's innovative
client/server software technology, customers can build interactive data
warehouse solutions critical for driving knowledge down to line managers
making day-to-day business decisions.

The Price Waterhouse Management Consulting Service's comprehensive approach
to data warehousing, called Knowledge Management, offers a proven
methodology that combines information technology skills (operational,
organizational, and business process expertise) with deep industry
knowledge. This approach has been used by numerous large companies in all
phases of data warehouse development--from strategy to implementation. As
such, Price Waterhouse MCS is currently ranked in the top tier of data
warehouse systems integrators.

"As our clients begin to effectively manage knowledge across their
organizations, they require cost-effective access to large amounts of data
for potentially hundreds of users," said Michael Schroeck, partner,
National Data Warehousing Leader for Price Waterhouse. "This alliance
brings together the respective strengths of Price Waterhouse and Sybase,
and provides another strong data warehousing option for our clients."

"Sybase welcomes the proven warehouse expertise of Price Waterhouse to our
Warehouse WORKS Alliance program," said Mike Forster, president of
Sybase's Information CONNECT Division. "The combination of Price
Waterhouse Knowledge Management warehousing services and Sybase Warehouse
WORKS technology provides a unique offering for our customers."
