CUSTOMIZATION OF THE RATIONAL TOOL SUITE

There is a famous saying: "A fool with a tool is still a fool."  We believe this statement, which is why we created our 4D Information Construction Approach, a CMM-Level 3 process.  In addition, we realize that no process can be implemented without the correct set of tools.

Thinking Objects, Inc., through the use of 4D, specializes in customization of the Rational tool suite to a customer's process environment. 

Thinking Objects Inc. offers two different customizations to fit your software development process:

     The Rational Enterprise Suite Customization caters to more traditional software development organizations. 
     The TOI Open Source Java for Rational is the customization for the development shops that are more Internet-oriented.  We have integrated a set of open source tools to support process-oriented development in Internet time.

In support of these customizations, Thinking Objects, Inc. offers:

     Training. Thinking Objects, Inc. offers courseware on tools within the Rational suite customized to the customers environment. Courses include both lectures and hands-on exercises.
     Support. Thinking Objects, Inc. offers phone support after installation and customization to act as a liaison to Rational Software's support for issues specific to the Thinking Objects, Inc. deliverables.
     Methodology/Process Assessment. The Rational Enterprise Suite facilitates the entire Information Technology process.  However, as it is a tool, it does not substitute for actual development life cycle processes. Thinking Objects can provide Business/System process methodology recommendations. An assessment includes time to ascertain current written procedures and methodologies.
