Meta and Plexus form alliance

Meta Software (Cambridge, MA, http://www.metasoftware.com

) and Plexus Software (Sunnyvale, CA, http://www.plx.com), a division of Dallas-based BancTec, have formed an alliance to combine Meta's WorkFlow Analyzer modeling and simulation tool and Plexus' FloWare software. Under the agreement, the two companies will jointly market the solution. The integration of the two products will enable users to directly implement the process defined by the business process re-engineering (BPR) solution. The integration of the two products is expected to meet the WorkFlow Management Coalition's (WFMC) international standards.
