Norwegian Knowledge Centre for the Health Services Selects Vivisimo to Power Search

Vivisimo (vivisimo.com), a leading provider of enterprise search
software and expertise, today announced the selection of its
award-winning Vivisimo Velocity enterprise search platform by the
Norwegian Knowledge Centre for the Health Services (NOKC) to enhance
searching on its library portal for healthcare professionals.

Based in Oslo, Norway, the NOKC gathers and disseminates evidence
about the effect and quality of methods and interventions within all
parts of the health services. Helsebiblioteket
(www.helsebiblioteket.no) provides nationwide access to medical
journals, databases and other content resources relevant to healthcare
personnel. The organization will license Velocity's entire search
platform to enhance access to its site and provide users a rich and
comprehensive search experience.

"After a thorough evaluation of search offerings in the market, we
chose Vivisimo's Velocity based on its rich 'out of the box'
functionality and impeccable track record with organizations like ours
all over the world," said Kjell Tjensvoll, consortium manager,
Norwegian Knowledge Centre for the Health Services. "We believe this
decision will significantly enhance our users' ability to rapidly
discover and find vital information."

The Vivisimo Velocity platform provides enterprises with
innovative search solutions that allow users to access, extract and
manipulate all available content, regardless of location. By combining
the simplicity of consumer search with the flexibility and control of
enterprise software, organizations can reap the benefits of increased
user adoption and satisfaction without compromising on performance,
scalability, security or the ability to configure a solution specific
to its business environment. Based on a service-oriented architecture
that enables rapid deployment, Vivisimo Velocity can be up and running
in just weeks.

"We are delighted to be chosen as the enterprise search provider
of choice by NOKC, and participate in its charter to provide important
content to the Norwegian Health community," said Raul Valdes-Perez,
CEO of Vivisimo. "Our continued penetration with public facing
organizations all over the world, which demand enhanced search
functionality to make critical information easy to find and discover,
tells us that search has truly become an International language. We
look forward to working with NOKC in providing absolute accuracy and
timely delivery of information, which is paramount to increasing its
users' overall satisfaction."

To support the evaluation process Vivisimo partnered with Swets
Information Services.

About the Norwegian Knowledge Centre for the Health Services

Norwegian Knowledge Centre for the Health Services was founded in
January 2004. The Centre is organized under The Directorate for Health
and Social Affairs but is scientifically and professionally
independent. The Centre has no authority to develop health policy or

activities.
