Changepoint Enables Greater Billing Clarity and Accuracy When
                Managing Multiple, Complex Projects

DETROIT, Nov. 17, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Compuware Corporation
(Nasdaq:CPWR), the technology performance company, announced today the
successful deployment of Compuware Changepoint's Software as a Service
(SaaS) solution for professional services automation at Unidel.
Headquartered in Brisbane, Australia, Unidel is a leading project
management and service provider that offers services for energy and
infrastructure projects.

Unidel's diverse employee base will leverage Changepoint to accurately
record and track time, materials and fixed fee costs against the
company's extensive 50+ project billing codes. Error-free time records
will result in greater clarity and more accuracy in Unidel's billing
cycle, which in turn will protect its brand and increase client
satisfaction.

In its search for the best solution for its needs, Unidel evaluated
Compuware Changepoint and NetSuite OpenAir. The company chose
Changepoint based on its SaaS delivery model, its ability to associate
time and materials as well as fixed fee costs to a single project, and
its ability to support Unidel's extensive library of 50+ project
billing codes. Compuware's ability to execute, with services experts
committing to begin implementation within hours of a signed business
agreement, was also instrumental in Unidel's decision to move ahead
with Changepoint.

"Beyond the solution's functionality, which satisfied all of our
criteria, we were absolutely thrilled with the Changepoint team's sense
of urgency. Within hours of signing the agreement to purchase, the
implementation team was at work, and within just five days our team was
realizing value out of the Changepoint solution," said James Moss,
Project Delivery Coordinator, Unidel.

"We are seeing increased customer adoption of Changepoint's
professional services automation solution in Australia's booming
consulting sector, where organizations such as Unidel are managing
complex and long-running infrastructure and energy sector projects
across vast geographic territories," said Lori Ellsworth, Senior Vice
President and General Manager of Compuware's Changepoint business unit.
"Changepoint plays an instrumental role in streamlining operations for
far-flung project management teams, allowing consultants in the field
to maintain detailed records and sustain a high level of billing
accuracy -- even when dealing with a large number of distributed and
diverse projects."

Compuware's Solution Delivery Group is now working with Unidel to
develop a phased implementation plan to deploy additional Changepoint
functionality to the company's user base.
