RHE announces distribution agreement with Lattix Inc

Sydney, Australia, October 18, 2007 - RHE a leading ICT services company based in Australia and New Zealand today announced a distribution agreement with Lattix Inc., the provider of innovative software architecture management solutions, for the Australasian marketplace. With this new partnership, Lattix is making a long-term commitment to provide the highest quality support and services to its rapidly growing customer base in Australiasia

"Australian companies have shown the a strong interest in our new approach to visualise, formalise, and control the architecture of complex software systems," said Frank Waldman, Vice President Sales of Lattix. "We believe that the experience and expertise of RHE in software analysis will enable our Australasian customers to quickly achieve measurable value with Lattix LDM."

Lattix has pioneered an award-winning approach that utilises system interdependencies to create an accurate blueprint of large, mission-critical software systems. Lattix LDM is the first commercial product to use a dependency structure matrix for a highly compact and scalable representation of the entire system. With the Lightweight Dependency Model approach, architects and developers can analyse their architecture in detail, edit the structure to create what-if scenarios and then specify design rules to formalise and communicate that architecture to the entire development organisation.

"The Lattix approach can deliver significant value at any stage of the development lifecycle. This is an excellent fit with our other offerings, both those targeted at software design and development, and those oriented at the business architecture and strategy and its elationship to systems" said Michael Ellyett, CTO of RHE. "We're eager to help our Australian and New Zealand customers reduce the costs of developing, maintaining and extending their systems, whilst also improving the agility and reducing the fragility of these systems. RHE was a very earlier adopter of OO analysis and design techniques and introduced UML to many clients in the mid 1990s so I think we have fairly good to top to bottom view of this domain."

All Lattix products are now available from RHE. More information can be found on the Partners page at http://www.rhe.com.au.
