Dec. 19, 2002 (St. Petersburg, FL.) TEC, Inc, a leading provider of technical training and skill enhancement services to retailers and other organizations acquiring new technologies, today announced an alliance with ProfitLogic, the creator of the first and most widely implemented Retail Merchandise Optimization (RMO) solutions, as part of ProfitLogic's commitment to each customer's success. Under the terms of the alliance, TEC will provide customized training and system documentation services to ProfitLogic's Merchandise Optimization solution customers.

"Our companies share a mutual dedication to customer success," says Steve Leven, Vice President of Client Solutions, ProfitLogic. Leven is responsible for ensuring each customer's success in terms of implementation, training, project management and use of the solution. "Our association with TEC will enable us to offer the highest quality training resources to our customers so that they will be able to take the greatest advantage of our software and achieve their financial and performance goals."

Kaie Pohi Latterner, TEC's president and founder, also is pleased about this new business relationship. "We are very happy to form this alliance with ProfitLogic," she says. "Our experienced consultants, using TEC's people-oriented and proven training methodologies and creative resources, will be able to offer ProfitLogic customers the finest available technical education and support possible."

"TEC's skilled consultants possess considerable retail software expertise and retail industry experience," he states. "Organizations that adopt new technology like ours need proper training to realize the full benefit of our software solutions.
