RecycQuebec Selects Fusepoint to Develop Web Portal to manage Residual Materials for Quebec Municipalities

Fusepoint Managed Services, a leading provider in the development of value-added e-commerce applications, today announced it has been selected by Recyc-Quebec, the Quebec Recovery and Recycling Corporation ("Socit qubcoise de rcupration et de recyclage"), to develop a web portal (http://www.fusepoint.com/english/html/application_services/) application that will support the management of residual materials in all Quebec municipalities.

The main functions of the portal that Fusepoint will develop for Recyc-Quebec will be to capture the key elements that are necessary to establish the net collection costs in each of the Quebec municipalities and to calculate their respective compensation. "Fusepoint is excited to bring our expertise to this project, to help improve Quebec's residual materials management process which ultimately contributes to protecting the environment. There is no doubt that our significant experience in both managed IT services and application development (http://www.fusepoint.com/english/html/application_development.html) positions us to meet the numerous parameters and challenges raised by Recyc-Quebec, especially those related to the evolution and ongoing maintenance of the application," added Martin Landreville, Fusepoint's Vice-President, Application Services.

The portal will be architected on Fusepoint's Development Platform which has a solid technical foundation for developing applications according to object-oriented principles, a multi-layer architecture and industry accepted design models. This platform, developed in the C# language and with .NET technology, allows fast and reliable application deployment at a very competitive cost.
