GRADE is a PC-based modeling environment for

Describing complex sociotechnological* systems (both "as is" and "to be") in a consistent, unambiguous and easy-to-understand graphical manner,
Analyzing the dynamic behavior of the described system through simulation and/or prototyping,
Creating a set of blueprints to serve as a basis for business process optimization and/or as a specification for a software system to be developed.

GRADE offers a very comprehensive system-modeling environment based on a formalized graphical language. Underlying this approach is an object-oriented perception of reality and the concept of representing systems in terms of what we consider Fundamental Building Blocks.

GRADE was designed for analyzing complex domains, such as business enterprises, and optimizing the processes and software systems comprising them. However, GRADE can be used equally well for less sophisticated modeling, especially when the popular tools on the market no longer suffice.

Generally, a one-day training course is sufficient for building meaningful GRADE business or object models. With the GRADE Basic User Guide, the user can start creating useful models immediately.

Included with the program:
1. Update to version 4.0.16 to be installed after the installation of the system.
2. Manual Installation.
3. A detailed manual on the use of the program in English.
