eXtensible Applications Framework (xaf)
We build applications in our own platform called xaf (pronounced zaf). It's a framework for rapid development and deployment of custom applications. The xaf architecture is client-server so there is no limit to the number of users and offices that can access the applications. It can easily grow and shrink with your organisation.

Applications developed in the xaf have functionality that is custom made to your company's processes. Our concept is to build software that fits exactly to the way your organisation operates as opposed to changing the way you work to fit in with off-the-shelf solutions. The framework is built using SOA (Service Orientated Architecture) and XML APIs. These are modern approaches to software design that allows 3rd party systems such as telephony, financial and ERP packages to integrate with the xaf.
Features
bullit The xaf integrates seamlessly with your Windows network and authenticates via Active Directory.
bullit There are many core building blocks like screens, locking, scheduler, charting, PDF creation, document storage and many more.
bullit All applications have a full audit history of all activity by each user which is ideal for regulatory compliance.
Benefits

bullit Applications written in the xaf integrate seamlessly with each other.
bullit Having a single software framework allows your organisation to be more agile and move with the times far more quickly.
