CERTPOINT - SAPIENT AND VUEPOINT PARTNER TO DELIVER TIME-CRITICAL, COST-EFFECTIVE LEARNING SOLUTIONS FOR CLIENTS

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - June 18, 2002 - Sapient (NASDAQ: SAPE), a leading business and technology consultancy, today announced it has formalized a partnership with Vuepoint , a provider of enterprise software that helps companies generate revenue quickly by creating, distributing and managing proprietary knowledge.  The companies will work with Global 2000 clients to rapidly deploy learning solutions that are easy to use, identify knowledge gaps, and disseminate important knowledge about products and services to employees, suppliers, partners and customers.  Clients will be able to bring products to market more quickly, increase productivity, reduce costs and improve their ability to generate revenue.

Sapient and Vuepoint are currently delivering a learning solution for Toyota Motor Corporation that will streamline learning across Toyota and its dealership network and deliver more knowledge faster.  The new solution is expected to boost productivity levels, reduce costs, increase high-quality, more cost-effective training, and provide a return on Toyota’s investment within 24 months.

“Sapient’s deep expertise in developing learning solutions, combined with its ability to help clients derive business results in extremely short time frames, make them a natural fit for Vuepoint,” said Preston Dodd, vice president of Global Strategic Alliances at Vuepoint.  “This partnership continues our focus on developing relationships and solutions that create competitive advantage for our clients.”
