About Scandura.com

Scandura.com is a privately held company specializing in advanced research on automated, easy to use software tools, with a focus on e-business. The company has worked with IBM, Boeing, TRW, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army, MacDonald Detwiler and Logicon among other organizations. It holds multiple patents in software automation and is a corporate member of the IBM-led EECOMS Advanced Technology Program consortium on supply chain automation. Patented technologies are used to quickly create operational models integrating all or any portion of a business operation. These models mirror any existing and/or planned systems. In addition to positioning existing components (e.g., databases and Web sites), these models help identify those parts of a business that can be automated. The models are converted to "real" systems by plugging in existing systems and/or new off-the-shelf components. All components in the system automatically interoperate. Custom components can easily be built and plugged in, gradually automating many routine tasks performed by a company's personnel.

SoftBuilder helps analysts and designers to easily create dynamic models of arbitrary systems and to implement and maintain those models. Special support is provided for simulating interactions both within and between business enterprises (i.e., e-business). Flexsys provides an ideal compliment by supporting XML and legacy systems. Flexsys' components automate many reengineering and conversion solutions and Flexsys' meta-components facilitate the construction of custom tools. Scandura.com's universal and easily extensible software bus enables true "plug and play." Existing components, applications and messaging infrastructures automatically interoperate. A company is never tied in to anyone proprietary "solution." Components can easily be replaced with better ones as they become available. New components are easily built using a refreshingly simple and highly intuitive interface coupled with a powerful, highly secure but equally simple development language.
