MAJOR PROPERTY INSURANCE COMPANY SELECTS RAVENFLOW

Emeryville, CA—January 19, 2010—Ravenflow, the leader in visual requirements definition software, today announced that one of the world's largest Fortune 1000 property insurance companies has selected RAVEN for visual requirements definition.

"Like many companies that we see, our new client lacked standard procedures for documenting requirements," said Susan Boers, president and CEO of Ravenflow. "They had little discipline for consistency across their business analysts, and many specifications were missing key business requirements."

"RAVEN addressed the client's challenges directly. This client executed a proof of concept to ensure that RAVEN would fit in their complex application development environment. RAVEN was the unanimous choice of all of the departments: business analysts, developers, QA, and business stakeholders."

Using RAVEN, consultants and other team members rapidly visualize and validate requirements, build team consensus, and produce clear specifications of their business process workflows, business use cases, and business application needs. Based upon patented language processing technology, RAVEN allows business people to describe their needs in plain English, then automatically identifies missing requirements while generating visual process and use case diagrams that all stakeholders can understand. With its distinctive business orientation and process-based approach to requirements definition, RAVEN is uniquely suited for use on both enterprise process improvement and application development projects.
