Frameworks have traditionally provided a reusable design that increases productivity for a specific domain.
“Standard” frameworks (JSF, EJB, Spring,…) and APIs address general issues. Although extremely useful, these low level frameworks are often complex and difficult to use. IT Departments in very large corporations, as well as the multinational “global” software factories, combine and build upon these general framework components to create a higher level “corporate” framework for their internal development process within their domain of activity.
The main benefits of using a high level framework include:
• Increased development speed and consistency by reusing code and patterns
• Implicit introduction of corporate IT standards
• Improvement in software quality
• Improvement in software reliability
And most importantly
• Delivering a solution to the domain of users more quickly

The rapid iterative prototyping development model has now been widely adopted, allowing both developers and users important feedback from the early stages of a project. Ontimize encourages the use of this model, automating many common tasks whilst allowing focus on those of higher value.

The Ontimize high level framework is for IT companies who do not have the sufficient bandwidth in personnel, expertise, time or finances to develop and maintain their own high level framework in their domain. This drastically reduces their ability to compete with the larger players in their marketplace. In addition more current requirements also demand:
An Open Architecture, based on well-known standard technologies
• Cross-platform support
• A modern Rich Interactive Application interface
• A network design optimized for the Internet
• Ease of use plus ease of customization
• Increased productivity without sacrificing flexibility
And most importantly
• The delivery of a better and more competitive solution to the domain of users even faster – a major differentiator with regard to "User Satisfaction"
