Select Business Solutions™ Offers Support
for Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Trumbull, CT December 4 2006: Today Select Business Solutions, a market
leader in process and software development tools, announced that its
products have been extended to support Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.
Select Business Solutions is an active member of the Microsoft Visual
Studio Industry Partner (VSIP) program, committed to supporting and
developing leading edge application development and process tools that
support Microsoft development technologies.
Select’s solution for Microsoft development technologies enables
developers to be more productive through the modeling and design of
systems before development of code. Select’s unique code synchronization
tools enable developers to design, generate and synchronize Microsoft
Visual C# 2005 and Visual Basic 2005 code to and from models more easily.
Its flexibility improves time-to-market, increases staff productivity and
enhances the quality of new applications.
Select’s tools also facilitate reuse of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005-based
components and automate development. Select’s tools include a component
reuse library through a multi-user web accessible repository, which can be
configured to suit any geography of distributed developers.
To further help Microsoft Visual Studio developers, Select also provides a
process development and rollout tool, Select Process Director. This tool
enables software development process definition (or the import of existing
process) which can then be deployed via Microsoft Office Project Server
2007 or a task list for individual users. Select Process Director is
currently used successfully for compliance with standards such as CMMI and
RUP.
“Our support for the Microsoft development tools enables our customers to
meet the needs of their business, as they are able to design and build the
right systems right. Through our Business Process Modeling Notation
(BPMN), Business Process Modeling (BPM), Unified Modeling Language (UML)
and database modeling capabilities, coupled with Visual Studio 2005 our
customers deliver their systems faster and more cost effectively,” said
Hedley Apperly, SVP and General Manager, Select Business Solutions.
“Microsoft is pleased to have ongoing commitment from Select Business
Solutions to the integration of its tools with Visual Studio 2005,” said
Jay Roxe, group product manager in the Developer Division at Microsoft
Corp. “Its support complements Visual Studio to offer a more complete
development platform that satisfies business and developer needs.”
