MINISIS Inc. is an accumulation of several entities joining
forces to create a unique, ethically responsible and solid
alternative to those in need of Information Technology (IT)
products and services. The goal is to ensure organizations have
a choice with respect to database management tools, web tools
and pre-defined applications to effectively manage everything
from simple and large text based data to state of the art
multimedia files. Our ultimate goal is to create a pleasant and
challenging work environment for our staff to guarantee happy
and productive employee resources. This philosophy allows us to
deliver creative software solutions to our clients in a cost-
effective and timely manner. Through our headquarters, regional
and now virtual offices, we are able to make the most of IT to
assist our clients here and abroad.
MINISIS was a DBMS that was created by the International
Development Research Centre in the early 1970s. The
International Development Research Centre (IDRC) is a public
corporation created by the Canadian Parliament and governed by
an international Board of Governors. Through funding of
research projects in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the
Caribbean, the IDRC assists communities in the developing world
find solutions to social, economic and environmental problems.
In 1976, in keeping with the IDRC mandate, the MINISIS Systems
Group was established to develop a software to maintain
information networks through the management of text based
information, in turn, facilitating the global sharing of
knowledge. The three principal understandings of the software
in its conception were: *to develop a complete information management tool and solution
*to be utilized and programmed by non-technical staff
*to be multi-platform and multilingual to facilitate the global
*sharing and knowledge and information
Fully commercialized some 20 years later, the MINISIS Inc.
organization was created taking over the MINISIS software.
Also, MINISIS Inc. many of the MINISIS personnel have extensive
Management Consulting experience from both Change Management,
BPR (Business Process Reengineering) and IM/IT perspectives.
With this addition expertise, MINISIS Inc. is able to offer a
wider range of products and services to enable our current and
future clients to implement "appropriate technological"
solutions. With the MINISIS Suite of Products, complete with
solid management consulting and application development wings,
MINISIS Inc. is comfortably poised to be one of the world's
leading alternative IT solutions .
