Corticon and KXEN Partner to Provide Intelligent Decision Management
Business users drive optimized business decisions with automated predictive analytics and model-driven business rules management.
San Francisco, October 28th, 2008 - Corticon®Technologies, (www.corticon.com), the leading independent Business Rules Management Systems (BRMS) vendor and KXEN (www.kxen.com)the Data Mining Automation Company™ announce today the integration of KXEN's predictive analytics with Corticon's Business Rules Management System, bringing integrated Intelligent Decision Management to global enterprises.
Business decisions are strategic corporate assets. They are essential components of corporate DNA, and to a large degree define how the business operates. Managing business decisions - everything from the speed of defining, automating, and changing decisions to the quality of business decisions - therefore, is of critical business importance. With the marriage of two vital technologies - business rules management and predictive analytics - a new solution is born, which more completely realizes the vision of decisions as strategic assets: Intelligent Decision Management (IDM).
The combined Corticon/KXEN IDM offering drives optimal, automated decision-making. Corticon's model-driven Business Rules Management within IDM automates the execution of optimized business rules, accelerates application development and business automation projects, improves productivity and business agility, and brings transparency to business decisions. KXEN's Predictive Analytics within IDM drives the real-time optimization of decisions by accurately calculating anticipated behaviors and propensities which are used as inputs to business rules to drive the real-time automated execution of business decisions.
IDM is critical in strategic business processes across many industries. Examples include insurance underwriting, loan origination, cross-sell/up-sell and fraud detection. For example, IDM powers optimized cross-selling at customer touch points by identifying a customer's preferences across a variety of products or services and using that information along with business strategies and operational data to optimize the customer offer.
The benefits of IDM from KXEN and Corticon are clear. IDM improves the quality of decisions by making them more proactive, which in turn drives better business results. IDM delivers optimized decision execution which reduces cost, accelerates the ability to react to business change cycles, insures that corporate strategies are consistently followed and puts the power of business-friendly, model-driven BRMS in the hands of business domain experts.
"Corticon is excited to integrate predictive analytics from KXEN to complete our Intelligent Decision Management solution. Adding predictive power to Corticon's model-driven BRMS will further increase customer competitive advantage." says Garth Gehlbach, Corticon's VP of Marketing and Product Management. "The Corticon/KXEN IDM solution uniquely empowers business domain experts and leads the way towards managing business decisions as strategic assets."
"The integration of the industry-leading predictive analytics solution from KXEN and the industry-leading rules management solution from Corticon puts the power of IDM in the hands of business users" says Roger Haddad, CEO of KXEN. "Companies can now optimize many business processes with the skills and resources they currently have on-hand, driving improved business performance across the enterprise."
