Price.
Mr. Price went on to state, " The I|Nova System is a new technology which takes the well known Rapid Application Development (RAD) concept to the next level and permits application development to be performed at the business process or policy and procedure level of an enterprise. The unique I|Nova approach is based on the development of "dynamic business templates" which encompasses "how" the enterprise operates. I|Nova then uses these business templates for developing software applications using a template building process."
