The Internet Application Framework (IAF, formerly Gembase 4GL) is the platform that underlies all CDC Software Ross Enterprise applications. This next-generation architecture leverages advanced
Internet technologies to provide end users with Web access to Ross Enterprise applications. It also enables organizations to easily and flexibly integrate Ross Enterprise applications with other
internal systems and external trading partners. With IAF as a foundation, Ross Enterprise customers enjoy extended scalability and performance, lower total cost of ownership, and higher end-user
satisfaction.
Key components:
- iBrowser—provides a highly flexible, Internet-based front end for Ross Enterprise applications
- IAF Mobile—extends Ross Enterprise applications beyond the boundaries of desktop workstations and laptop computers to handheld and other mobile devices
- IAF Server—delivers an enormous amount of scalability, flexibility, and performance with an application server, a database server, and a user interface server
- IAF Metadata—creates logical separation between Ross Enterprise applications and the underlying technology, and enables successful evolutions across technology paradigms
The HP OpenVMS operating system provides a stable, secure, and robust environment needed for rapid, professional application development. Moreover, the exceptional clustering and networking
capabilities of HP OpenVMS Integrity and AlphaServer systems make them a solid platform for Ross IAF-based applications.

Ross Enterprise—Enterprise Resource Planning (Ross ERP) is a complete enterprise resource planning suite specifically designed to meet the unique operating requirements associated with the
production and packaging of products through recipe and formula-based production. It enables process-oriented manufacturers to effectively produce, manage, and track goods, information, and resources
across the enterprise and supply chain, while adhering to increasingly stringent quality standards.
Ross ERP is built upon an Internet-based technology foundation that provides easy adaptability to changing business models and communications innovations. The architecture is completely
browser-based, and leverages industry-standard XML Web services to enable connectivity between Ross ERP and other internal and external enterprise systems, devices, people, and processes.
Key modules:
- Ross Financial Management—efficiently manages and optimizes business operations across multiple
companies, divisions, and sites throughout the supply chain
- Ross Manufacturing Management—supports real-time manufacturing decision-making, ensures quality,
increases plant throughput, contains costs, and improves delivery performance
- Ross Quality Management and Regulatory Compliance—precisely controls materials, co-products,
by-products, end products, batch scaling, date code tracking, shelf-life expiration dating, lot tracing, and yield optimization;
quality control (QC) and quality assurance (QA) are integral parts of all Ross Enterprise applications
- Ross Materials Management and Inventory Control—manages materials, intermediate goods, and finished
goods across multi-company, multi-division, or multi-site environments based upon characteristics such as shelf-life, pH, moisture
content, and potency level
- Ross Maintenance Management—provides electronic management of work orders, integrated procurement and
scheduling, work order status and alerts, detailed equipment records and specifications, preventative and predictive maintenance
(PM), and integrated costing and charge accounts
- Ross Business Analytics—captures and summarizes transactional and statistical data from operations to
provide timely, actionable information needed to analyze key performance indicators and make better decisions
- Ross Data Collection—enables acceptance of data input by scanning bar code labels and RFID
When Ross ERP is deployed on HP OpenVMS AlphaServer systems and Integrity servers, process manufacturers gain a reliable and secure enterprise resource planning system with outstanding scalability
and performance. In addition, the security and manageability built into the OpenVMS operating system make it a safe and cost-effective IT environment for running all aspects of process manufacturing
organizations.
