ClearConcepts™ is a precious assistant in the management of today's fast-paced and highly dynamic IT departments.

The concept behind ClearConcepts™ is empowering the users to access comprehensive, up-to-date information, with an orthogonal view of the organization that doesn't limit itself to the traditional IT infrastructure scope, allowing them to, for example, find out how each of the organizational processes integrates with its supporting technology – and how each part in-between relates to each other.

And since we know reality is always on the move, the system can be easily adapted, adding and changing the managed concepts to better suit your needs at each point in time.

From the customizable model to a graphical visualizer that allows the system to provide its users with rich semantic and goal oriented information, you'll find that ClearConcepts™ is the flexible tool you need to help you manage your IT, saving you both time and money.

Model the full scope of your enterprise architecture, in a single, easy to use, crystal clear system. From business processes and services to machines and operating systems, keep track of the information you really need to make those critical decisions and maintain your organization running silk-smooth.

Core to ClearConcepts™ is a customizable ontology that allows you to create and adjust concepts, tailoring the model domain you wish to support to your specific reality, to your own unique needs (e.g. adding the concept of Virtual Machines to the model, even though you initially didn't support it).

And if, along the way, you find reality is a mess that shouldn't be, then apply the process the other way around: simplify your concepts and adjust your reality.

Don't limit yourself to traditional thinking, be creative, and have the information you really need to manage your enterprise architecture in the most efficient and effective way possible.

Notice that although our initial focus is on an ontology that supports IT enterprise architecture, the system comes with complete freedom for you to support any engineering area.

You're not sure how to represent your IT enterprise architecture today?
You're afraid your enterprise architecture will change and leave all your data obsolete?

That's not a problem for ClearConcepts™: start by representing now what you know or judge to be the best approach, and add up later as things become clearer.
Just a bit of information is better than none at all.

Support new concepts as they begin to make sense in your holistic vision of the organization, and as they gain weight in your decision making process. Never again leave out vital information for your managing tasks – with ClearConcepts™ if your vision changes and new variables are set in motion, all you need is to painlessly adapt your domain model to your newest requirements, easily, step by step, as your ideas mature from simple visions to concrete necessities.

And if at any point you need to know how you envisioned IT in the past, all the information is still there, available for you to explore – and you just need to choose "when".

The proverb says: "a picture is worth a thousand words", and that is why ClearConcepts™ features a graphical visualizer for the modelled data.
It furnishes its users with intuitive and clear ways to sift through the stored information, helping them see what otherwise would be obscured in numberless relations (or just not so plain to see), and find out not so apparent truths about the way some things might be (dis)organized.

You'll be able to navigate through all the contained information from the business process level down to IT infrastructure details and/or the other way around. And at any point you can refine the level of detail, and thus the quantity, of information you are provided with.

The visualizer also proves effective as a tool to communicate the managed information in a way anyone can understand, from the technical staff to the top management.

ClearConcepts™ tries to reduce the amount of work you need to have in order to get results, and to that end, it automatically creates views for your currently defined concepts and relationships. If at any moment those auto-generated views are not enough for you to get your points across or to provide the information the way you really need it, you will always have the freedom to define customized views where you can arrange the information in the best way possible to suit your objectives.

So if you ever need to show your information to a particular audience of vital importance, you will be able to create or adapt your views to display the information in a graphically contextualized fashion, both appealing and in the clearest way possible to emphasize the points you really want to stand out.

You can, for example, sort your information in specific architectural tiers, so that your view provides you with an improved insight on how each tier really relates to one another.
Or you can widen or narrow the scope of information to represent certain concepts according to your precise needs or the needs of your end-users.
