AURORA, IL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 09/20/06 -- Dispatch Direct has announced that they have been chosen by Eveready Industrial Services Corporation, the Canada-based providers of industrial and oilfield services, to implement Dispatch Direct Enterprise as their service call software.

Eveready partnered with Dispatch Direct creating a custom solution, building on the competencies of their core system. Across all divisions and 35 locations, equipment and personnel with specific levels of talent and licensing are tracked. The system enables Eveready to respond to customers immediately and reliably.

Eveready, which has grown 100% in the past 18 months, anticipates continued expansion through acquisition. Dispatch Direct's custom solution accommodates this growth and seamlessly integrates new personnel and machinery into the existing system.

According to Jeff Rudolph, Dispatch Direct CEO, "We are very excited to be a part of Eveready's rapid growth and in our ability to provide them the solution they require now and for the future."

"Our region has seen a phenomenal amount of rapid growth. It is an exciting, fast paced environment. Our motto is 'go hard or go home.' Dispatch Direct has given us the ability to bring order to the chaos. The administrative staff has found this program to be an invaluable tool. A wealth of information is now at our fingertips," says Rhonda Luciow, Eveready Northeast Region Administrative Manager.

Eveready chose to customize their solution with Dispatch Direct over programming a proprietary system, saving significant expense and time to the field. The SQL database structure will allow further incorporation with existing or new systems going forward.
