Paradigm Designs Software (PDS) is a software development house, incorporated in 1992 to design, develop, sell, and install information products. PDS's primary product focus is enterprise asset management (EAM). PDS's core solution, Paradigm Business Systems version 5 (PBS5) is an EAM product with a "trans-lingual" capability, meaning it supports multiple languages concurrently. Global companies use PBS5 in different situations, such as one of the company's clients, which uses it in a US/Chinese joint venture mine.
PDS has experience integrating its solutions to third party products. Some of the industries the company focuses on include pulp and paper, food manufacturing, general manufacturing, engineering services, mining, and fleet and port infrastructure. PDS operates on a reseller model working closely with a number of firms that focus on sales and implementation of PBS5, while PDS focuses on continued product developement. Paradigm Designs Software is headquartered in Victoria, Australia. |
The PBS5 EAM solution can help improve maintenance planning, knowledge,
understanding, and history retention. PBS5 supports best practice methodologies
including risk based maintenance, on condition based maintenance, six sigma,
production driven, demand driven inventory holding, and RCM. PBS5 simplifies
external access to application data and includes tools for self diagnostics and
database table and view maintenance functions.
Wherever possible functions such as, lists, labels, help messages, reports
queries, security, etc. are configurable by the end user or implementer. PBS5
supports applicable standards whereever possible. For example, the AS 4360 risk
model, ANSI 92 SQL, ODBC connectivity, and all forms have a standard look, feel,
and core functionality.
Paradigm Designs Software designed its solution to have programming language
independence, thus the company can regenerate PBS5 to the programming language
of choice in the future. The existing product can be upgraded to capitalize on
new foundation classes for existing deployments, without having to rewrite the
whole application, including a client's custom modules. PDS supports the ability
to add new modules and features in a consistent and repeatable manner with a
minimum of programming.
