Integic and Corticon Team on Business Process Requirements
12/13/2004
Integic Corporation, a provider of business process management solutions and
Corticon(TM) Technologies, a provider of business rules management
systems, today announced an alliance to offer an integrated solution to
customers' business process requirements.
According to the companies, customers seeking enterprise solutions will now be able to take advantage of Integic's e.POWER product to manage documents, records, and processes while utilizing Corticon's product to manage complex business rules for key portions of the process. e.POWER "Intelligent Agents" will provide just-in-time integration for key business users, allowing them to automatically access and apply business rules.
"There are significant financial benefits to externalizing rules for power
users and developers without the normal overhead associated with program
changes. However, there are also strategic advantages to ensuring that these
changes are managed, tested and coordinated by augmenting rule technologies
beyond business rule engines," said Jim Sinur, vice president and distinguished analyst at the Gartner Group and a principal author of both the
Business Process Management and Business Rules Engine Magic Quadrants.
Mark Scheffel, vice president at Integic responsible for the e.POWER
suite, said "Corticon provides e.POWER with a more robust solution for complex rules modeling and creation including the advanced capability to test and manage rules. e.POWER decision tasks and Intelligent Agents provide basic rules capability, but now with Corticon's integrated product we can provide the ambiguity and completeness testing needed to insure that involved decisions function as intended. As business and government are forced to become more agile in an environment of escalating complexity, we see Corticon user-friendly products playing an increasing role in our solutions."
"We are very happy to have Integic make our capability available to its
customers," said Dr. Mark Allen, founder and CEO at Corticon. "Integic's
dominant position in the healthcare and pharmaceutical verticals and its
reputation as a leading supplier of business process to the government provide
great channels for Corticon."
