Autonomy Announces Six New Major U.S. Government Partnerships
Autonomy's Advantage Partner Program rolls out in the Federal markets
CAMBRIDGE, England, 10th July 2000 - Autonomy Corporation plc (NASDAQ/EASDAQ : AUTN) today announced partnership agreements with six major players in the U.S. federal, state and local government markets. The partners, Federal Data Corp, CACI, Raytheon, General Dynamics, GTSI and Concentra, will resell all Autonomy's products, enabling U.S federal, state and local governmental bodies to automatically manage the information and knowledge within their organizations.
The partnerships represent over one thousand new sales and marketing resources dedicated to those government markets. The partner organizations supply virtually all federal agencies, both defense and civilian, and most state governments.
Dr. Mike Lynch, Founder and Group CEO of Autonomy, said: "These partnership agreements reflect Autonomy's commitment to predominance in the U.S. government marketplace. Autonomy's technology, combined with the skills and experience of our partners, will immediately enable large-scale U.S. government clients to benefit from best-of-breed knowledge management solutions."
The Autonomy Advantage Government Partners are described below:
Federal Data Corporation (FDC), (www.feddata.com) a Federal systems integration firm headquartered in Bethesda, MD, is pleased to announce its partnership with Autonomy. FDC is recognized as one of the leading value-added IT resellers and IT services and solution providers in the federal market place.
FDC's strengths include IT infrastructure functions such as electronic commerce and web/internet services, data warehousing and mining, software engineering, enterprise migration, product fulfillment, systems integration, and network engineering and support.
"Our partnership with Autonomy enables FDC to deliver advanced integrated solutions that merge structured and unstructured data in ways that create additional value for our customers," said John Wayne, Senior Vice President of FDC's Solutions Sector.
"Autonomy's software products are a powerful complement to FDC's current portfolio of web and internet solutions including eBusiness solutions, portals, knowledge management applications, and web infrastructure and security solutions."

"Autonomy is a clear leader in the commercial knowledge management market, providing unique technologies that can directly enhance our integrated information infrastructure approach.
As an Autonomy partner, we will have the ability to more efficiently and effectively deploy superior solutions to the ever increasing set of information management challenges found in today's military," said Jay Mork, Chief Technologist, General Dynamics Information Systems.

GTSI also offers integration services and partners with globally recognized service providers to bring customers a wide selection of more complex integration options.
"Autonomy's unique ability to locate information from among various sources of unstructured text, based on concepts rather than simply keywords, results in more relevant information being presented to the knowledge worker, and presented in a more timely manner.
Since all government agencies deal with massive amounts of information, having Autonomy on board means that important information reaches the worker faster and that worker can therefore spend his or her time putting the information to productive use," said Mark Zelinger, Vice President, VendorRelations and Product Marketing.

"Conceptual technology is, in our view, the next leap in information management" said Gail Phipps, Executive Vice President of CACI's Assured Information Solutions business group.
"The ability to retrieve electronic documents in their native formats and automatically categorize them will greatly enhance productivity and reduce document processing costs, particularly for responding to litigation support tasks and Freedom of Information Act requests.
We believe there is a great market for our combination of systems integration expertise, federal agency experience - especially our 20-year heritage of litigation support for the Department of Justice - and Autonomy's conceptual capabilities."
Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, CACI has approximately 4,800 employees and more than 90 offices in the U.S. and Europe.
