CIMNET Enters Into Technology and Stock Purchase Agreement with Adroit Technologies

Robesonia, PA, January 26, 2004

CIMNET ® , Inc. (OTCBB: CIMK), a leading developer of Manufacturing Execution System (MES) software, today announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to purchase 10% of the outstanding capital stock of Advanced Worx 112 (Proprietary) Ltd, a South African software developer doing business as Adroit Technologies, and an undivided equal interest in Adroit's Viznet software. The closing of the proposed transaction is subject to the approval of the South African Reserve Bank, the South African Receiver of Revenue, and the South African Industrial Development Corporation as well as the satisfaction of other customary conditions.

Cimnet and Adroit have been working together to create a suite of .Net manufacturing modules for MES, HMI/SCADA and Business Intelligence under the new Viznet .NET Infrastructure. The manufacturing modules are fully configurable for rapid implementation to achieve a fast return on investment, yet fully extensible by IT departments and System Integrators using C# and or VB.NET. Additionally the new suite of modules offers a drag and drop design environment to rapidly custom build user interfaces according to the needs of users.

John Richardson, CIMNET's CEO, stated, "Our new jointly developed products should change the way automated manufacturing businesses view the MES, HMI/SCADA and Business Intelligence software market. We believe our new .NET suite, which is slated for release in June of this year, will prove to be the largest advancement in integrated MES, HMI/SCADA and Business Intelligence technology seen in over a decade. Customers will have the ability to mix and match integrated modules to achieve the desired set of functionality through a unified user interface, effectively making stand-alone or integrated solutions obsolete ".

Dave Wibberley, Managing Director of Adroit Technology, stated, "The closing of our deal with Cimnet marks a new era for Adroit and should establish us as the manufacturing technology leader in South Africa and Europe . Using the broad scope of manufacturing modules brought together under our Viznet software application will give our customers an unparalleled advantage over their competition".

It is anticipated that the Cimnet/Adroit transaction will close during the second quarter of this year. Following the closing, Cimnet is scheduled to receive beta versions of Viznet for further testing with its integrated suite of products.
