Proxix Solutions' Tax Situsing Solution is Certified by the State of Florida

PALM HARBOR, Fla., December 14, 2004 — Proxix Solutions, Inc., a provider of advanced geo-spatial solutions, has had its tax situsing solution, Site-US Tax™, certified by the State of Florida Department of Revenue. As a Certified Service Provider, Proxix's Site-US Tax solution will allow telecommunication and cable providers to receive a higher collection allowance and be granted the hold harmless provision of the Communication Service Tax (CST).

"A certified system provides a high confidence level in tax situsing, not only for Florida, but across the nation," says Dan Lawson, director of tax for Proxix and a former tax manager for Verizon. "It removes a burden for tax and customer care personnel by reducing customer complaints for incorrect tax billings."

Site-US Tax is the only fully-integrated software and database solution that does not rely upon a ZIP+4 lookup table for tax situsing. Site-US Tax is a geocoding process that compares the physical address location to the municipality boundaries within Proxix's tax database. In addition to determining tax jurisdictions, Site-US Tax provides transaction tax information, including the lowest level tax authority and remittance filing requirements for sales tax and industry specific tax applications. The product is also an ideal solution for situsing assets for property tax reporting and use tax applications. Site-US Tax may be licensed as an in-house software and database installation or accessed via Proxix's Web Services.

"The keys to accurate tax situsing are positional accuracy and updated municipality boundaries," says Howard Botts, PhD, executive vice president of Proxix. "Proxix's database development office in Madison, Wisconsin controls the process for collecting, updating and digitizing the municipality databases. Because we do not rely on a third party database vendor, we can ensure that our customers have the most current files available."
