Mr. Simpson Honored as Executive of the Year at Awards Gala in New York City

[Omaha, NE - June 14, 2006] - The President of MSI Systems Integrators, Inc. (MSI), a leading comprehensive solution provider of hardware, software and services, was recognized by CMP Technology's VARBusiness magazine for leading one of North America's top technology integrators. MSI President Jim Simpson was presented with the Executive of the Year award at a gala ceremony in conjunction with the VARBusiness 500 Conference in New York City on June 13.

MSI was one of only 17 North American solution providers honored by the biweekly magazine that covers the business of technology integration. The Executive of the Year is an award that VARBusiness editors give to an individual, rather than a company, who stands out in the channel community. The company will be featured in a special issue to be published July 10, which will outline the definitive list of 2006 VARBusiness 500 Solution Providers in North America.

VARBusiness Editor Lawrence M. Walsh says, "Jim Simpson receives the award honors this year for his drive, determination, and vision in helping his company MSI climb to #153 on the VARBusiness top 500 technology integrators list this year," said Lawrence M. Walsh, VARBusiness Editor. "His performance has been nothing short of remarkable, driving revenues of more than $209 million, an increase of over 28% from last year."

"The information-technology distribution channel is blossoming and companies like this year's 17 winners are contributing significantly to that growth," added Walsh.
