| Software Europe Update |
In the quiet season we have been at work evaluating new products and have decided that two have very exciting capabilities. We are very pleased to be launching SMART TS and ERM here in the UK, and have included details on both of our new products in this issue of Mainframe News.
We have also been planning campaigns to further promote two of our existing products, which have recently been heavily enhanced.
- expenses has had the ability to offline enter your expenses, find a hotel capability and several other enhancements added, we have a seminar in the office on the 22nd of September, will be at Softworld in October and at the Finance Directors Forum in November. Click here for more information
- Framework has been completely rewritten to work as an ASP application accessed by a browser and many new features added to help control your Vendors as well as your Contracts (all contracts not just IT contracts) again we will have a seminar on Framework at our offices in October and will be arranging other events thereafter. Click here for more information
As we now enter September, most people will be back at work and I guess a lot of the organistaions we are dealing with will be reorganising and optimising on spend as many companies did in the first half of the year. Please let us know if the people responsible for our products change so we can keep providing excellent product support to all our users.

Browser Based Search Engine for the Mainframe - SMART TS XL |
SMART TS is designed to help Business Analysts and Application Developers with application life cycle management. It is an intuitive browser based search engine for the main frame/mini (MVS, VMS, AS400, UNIX) environment.
SMART TS lowers the risk and impact of change management and is an invaluable life cycle tool for learning new systems, converting systems, reverse engineering, software consolidations and more:
- Find Instantly
- Follow Seamlessly
- Formulate Graphically
|
|
The search results go across the boundaries of element types, such as: Cobol, NATURAL, Adabas, DB2, SAS, VSAM, JCL PROCS, CA7, PDS, Focus and others. SMART TS also extends the searches into email and jobdocs.
Business users, analysts, and developers are instantly more productive because the results are 100% accurate and returned in a fraction of the time. The bottom line is that SMART TS shortens life cycle development changes and reduces risk.
If you have previously looked at products in this area, you will probably have found them hard to maintain, time consuming and difficult to navigate. SMART TS does not require this level management, and is definitely worth consideration.
We no longer distribute this software. For further information please contact In-Com directly.

ERM (Enterprise Resource Management) - A Security Solution |
ERM is a server-based system which automates the allocation of resources to entities. The most common application of the ERM Server is the automatic allocation of company facilities to employees, whether they are electronics services such as email accounts, access to files shares or access to specific electronic systems, or physical such as access to a building via a security system, phones, cars or furniture.
Large organisations, with 1,000 employees or more, with a high rate of staff movement within an organisation; predominantly manually manage the allocation of company resources for employees. This is a continuous process and requires an organisation to invest large amounts of time and cost in its human resource staff, IT staff, facilities staff, the employees themselves and their managers.
Keeping a large organisation running while employees are always moving and changing is a continuous, complex and very expensive process!
The ERM Server solves these problems by automating all resource allocations/de-allocations within an organisation. This provides fast, secure, and efficient resource manipulation that until now was not possible within organisations.
Major ERM Benefits
- IT Helpdesk and system administrators are free to do their job
- Productivity increases and associated savings
- Empowers divisional managers
- Provides resource auditing and reporting
- A standardised approach to resource management
- Immediate reduction in Total Cost of Ownership of each system
- Reduction in support and maintenance expenditure
