CA EXTENDS NEXT GENERATION VISUAL ENTERPRISE MANAGEMENT TO BUSINESS
APPLICATIONS

Brings New Level Of Flexibility To Business

ISLANDIA, N.Y., October 26, 1995--Computer Associates International, Inc.
today announced it will provide a new, integrated version of its
financial, manufacturing, distribution, human resource, systems and
network management solutions that will change the way business application
software looks and operates.

Employing the same technology used in the next generation of the industry
leading CA-Unicenter enterprise systems management solution, the new
integrated end-to-end application suite will offer users an unprecedented
real-world view of the entire enterprise and provide pictorial
representations of each phase of their business process.

The new business application solution will incorporate an advanced business
process-oriented user interface and workflow technology that will allow
users to navigate through the system based on their role within their
business --not redefine their job based on how the system works. As
components of the business process change, the system can be reconfigured
to reflect the changes.

The complete integration of business functions across the enterprise and
the role-oriented design will provide a highly visual enterprise
management that will radically simplify and streamline business
computing.

"Companies can't afford to re-engineer their business processes to fit the
technology or re- implement their systems every time they change the way
they do business," said Richard Chiarello, CA senior vice president. "The
new CA solution can be easily reconfigured each time the business
changes."

The integrated application is more cost effective over licensing multiple
vertical applications because it:

 Will be priced as a single system
 Will offer savings in time and money for implementation
 Will be integrated across the enterprise
 Can be reconfigured quickly to adapt to changing business needs

POSITIVE INDUSTRY REACTION:

Andrew Zoldan, partner, Benchmarking Partners: "Organizations that do not
embrace the CA vision will lose opportunities in their marketplace and
give away their competitive edge."

Mark Barilla, vice president manufacturing, Oatey Corporation: "Great
concept. It reinforced our existing business direction with manufacturing
technology."

Bruce Richardson, vice president, Advanced Manufacturing Research: "The
ability to remodel the flow of an integrated business application solution
will yield both improved speed in responding to market changes and lower
operating costs for the software."

Tom Hammond , vice president, GSE Process Solutions: "CA's approach to
implement business process views into the product is a very good decision.
I appreciate the effort, design and professionalism that you planned and
executed."

Dennis Godek, CIO, Environworks: "The impact of CA's Visual Enterprise
Management Strategy is interesting and provocative to my organization."
