Arlington, VA, November 30, 2001 – Software Performance
Systems, Inc. (SPS) announced today that it ranked Number 413 on the 2001
Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 500, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing

SPS’s CEO, Greg Dorsett, attributes the company’s dramatic revenue
growth to client satisfaction, technical excellence, and the highly motivated

willingness to explore the unknown.”

500, SPS’s leaders have proven that they have the vision and the
fortitude to excel in the highly competitive technology industry,”
said Mark A. Evans, managing director of Deloitte & Touche’s
Technology & Communications Group. “We congratulate them on
becoming one of the 500 fastest growing technology companies in the U.S. and
Canada.”
“Making the Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 500 is a testament to a
company’s leadership, commitment to technology, and ability to deliver
the right solution at the right time. With its 1,144% five-year growth
rate, SPS has proven that its leadership has the vision and determination to
succeed, and we at Deloitte & Touche salute their accomplishments.”
