Press Release Summary: Alliance Cost Containment of Michigan recently conducted a
cost-savings analysis indicating savings opportunities in excess of six-figures for
an established furniture manufacturing company.

Press Release Body: Alliance Cost Containment, Michigan's premier business expense
reduction analysts, are pleased to annouce a six-figure initial cost savings
estimate for an established Michigan Furniture Manufacturer. The Company provides
furniture solutions for a variety of governmental, commercial and industrial
customers. "Typically both the prospective client and our firm are quite pleased
when our preliminary analyses come back above six-figures," noted John Stanton, one
of ACC's Grand Rapids-based expense reduction analysts.

According to Mr. Stanton, Alliance Cost Containment's initial cost-savings estimates
are always conservative. "We like to be conservative in order to reduce inflated
expectations," noted Stanton. "Then, once engaged, we work diligently to deliver and
monitor the maximum cost-savings available to our clients, all on a contingency
basis."

Alliance Cost Containment of West Michigan offers a variety of cost-savings ideas
and solutions to its clients including access to nationally negotiated group
purchasing contracts, direct supplier negotiation and a nationwide network of
subject-matter experts that assist clients with freight, telecommunications,
merchant card fees, utilities, China sourcing, payroll processing and many more
categories.

"Our Subject Matter Experts (SMEs - pronounced 'smees' by ACC Associates) bring a
tremendous amount of value to our clients," indicated Stanton. "Most small and
mid-size companies and organizations simply do not have the wherewithal or need to
hire full-time experts in freight, telecommunications, utilities and other areas.
These companies can rely on our unbiased experts to accurately and fairly assess
their needs and find areas where they are being overcharged or where better prices
or plans exist."
