Quintek Technologies, Inc. Discloses Strategy to Develop Complete Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) Solution for Cradle-to-Grave Document Storage


CAMARILLO, Calif., Feb. 10, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- In a presentation to professional investors at the Southern California Investors Association Capital Conference on Saturday, February 7, 2004, in Irvine, California, management of Quintek Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:QTEK) disclosed that the Company has recently developed a plan to position Quintek as a mass storage vendor with a true archival solution.

The Company's plan is to acquire an experienced mass storage sales force, integrate its product line, and form partnerships with content and document management companies as well as enterprise mass storage vendors. Quintek also disclosed its intentions to acquire service bureau operations with experience and focus on micrographics. The company is currently seeking financing partners and acquisition candidates in mass storage and document service bureaus.

The Company's goal is to provide complete mass storage solutions for customers. By integrating digital mass storage products with Quintek's patented Chemical Free Microfilm (CFM) technology the Company believes that it can advance film-based imaging into a modern IT solution. Quintek plans to develop new hardware products covering all formats of microfilm. Quintek will also look to develop new software such as the "DataFilm" project previously announced, extended features and applications for the workplace, and connectors to most major document management software products used in the workplace.

Mass storage partners which Quintek is looking to develop relationships with should have adequate expertise in SAN, NAS, DAS, Tape Backup and RAID technologies. Service Bureau entities should have a focus in engineering documentation. Financing candidates should have an interest in Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions.

Robert Steele, Quintek Chairman and CEO, commented on this strategy stating that, "There are many high quality mass storage vendors competing in this marketplace. Last year EMC alone generated $6.4 billion in revenues with a 15% growth rate." Steele continued, "We believe that by providing complete information lifecycle management solution that handles a companies document storage needs from cradle to grave will put us at the forefront of this industry." Steele concluded, "The competitive solution we plan to offer should allow us to capture a significant percentage of business in this highly active multi-billion dollar space."

Andrew Haag, Quintek CFO, stated, "As our financial strength continues to improve the interest of financial institutions will increase and investors should begin to realize the potential of this Company." Haag continued, "The recent interest generated from professional investors at the SCIA conference this weekend should prove to be very valuable as we move Quintek forward and execute our growth strategy."
