Catalyze Information

We deliver training and consulting services to client firms making the transition to or in the process of implementing object-oriented, distributed, client/server software development strategies. Our services have been successfully delivered to leading Fortune 1000 firms in the financial services, telecommunications, medical, transportation and software industries. Catalyze helps Fortune 1000 companies build scaleable client/server systems that meet their rapidly evolving business requirements. A key ingredient of success is the ability to encapsulate business rules, policies and operations in a suite of reusable services from which applications can be quickly constructed. To provide clients with the basic foundation necessary for creating such architectures, Catalyze delivers training and mentoring in object-oriented requirements, analysis, design, architecture and implementation. Catalyze has decades of experience applying these techniques to the design and construction of distributed systems and large-scale object-oriented architectures. Clients leverage this experience by utilizing Catalyze design mentoring services. The goal of many information technology organizations is to build a robust enterprise server platform with location transparency, information access, and scaleability. Catalyze has a deep understanding of the best available technical solutions to solve the client's business need. It maintains and expands its knowledge through the practical experience gained by applying these technologies in a wide range of systems. Clients leverage this expertise through Catalyze mentoring services. As a result, clients can invest less precious time and resources into technology investigation and more into building business solutions. Catalyze helps clients use a risk driven iterative development process to deliver systems in well-defined increments that mitigate technical and business risk. The use of advanced management techniques are necessary for creating corporate-wide IT architectures. Creating such architectures is an evolutionary process that involves adapting to changing technologies and changing business requirements. Business requirements continually evolve as new applications are deployed, since users will continue to identify new ways to benefit from the system. The Catalyze iterative process allows clients to cope with changing or minimally defined requirements and adapt the architecture over time.
