COMPANY OVERVIEW

TPS® Systems, Inc. has been providing software worldwide to numerous industries for over a quarter of a century. A vibrant company, TPS® has evolved as technology has changed. From the Series 1 to SNA-centric software on UNIX® to multi-platform / OS Client / Server software focused on enterprise network management solutions, TPS® has kept pace with the rapidly ever-changing technological industry. But, unlike numerous of our competitors, TPS® continues to support our legacy-based customers and provide them with products that will ease their transition to newer technologies. TPS® can provide this continuing coverage since all of our products are developed in-house and the support staff can discuss issues with the developer of the product.

Over the years, TPS® has created a broad suite of products addressing connectivity requirements of users who have a large investment in legacy hardware/software and wish to preserve it, but need to transition to a Client/Server model with continued access to centralized applications, data repositories, and technical support. An example of this is the use of the current mainframe architecture that employs TCP/IP, but needs to “talk” to SNA devices downstream. TPS® provides numerous products to assist in the translation from SNA to TCP/IP and back. This comprehensive product portfolio is available on a multitude of platforms and operating systems that include IBM® AIX®, HP-UX™, Sun® Solaris, Linux®, SCO®, and Windows®. TPS® products can handle multiple protocols such as SNA, Bisync, and TCP/IP as well as 32 and 64-bit processors.

With its long history, TPS® has built a rock-solid reputation for:

  • Software Solutions - meeting the quality and functional/technical requirements of large, complex, business-critical networks for demanding Fortune 500 firms, government agencies, and other organizations.
  • Technical Expertise in:
    • SNA, TCP/IP, Bisync, and other communication protocols
    • UNIX®, Windows®, Linux® (Intel®, IBM® zSeries)
    • Networking utilities and management tools
    • Mainframe interconnectivity
    • Traditional WAN, frame relay, and LAN
  • Outstanding Support
  • Professionalism, Flexibility, and Responsiveness
  • Highly Satisfied Customers

 

TPS® TODAY

In keeping with today’s customer needs, TPS® is developing new products that enhance Internet and Intranet initiatives. Although TPS® products are not “Applications” in the true sense of the word, a number of TPS® products work extremely well with Client applications or projects to include credit card / payment authorization; Mainframe re-hosting; Web-to-host access; ATM for Banking; SNA to IP conversion; SP server consolidation; and peer-to-peer file transfer. In addition, TPS®’s newer products have the ability to interface with the mainframe. These products may either simplify procedures on the mainframe or provide the ability to offload work from the mainframe. These products continue the trend of TPS® to provide our customers with state-of-the-art systems while still providing them the choice of protocols and the ability to move among them effortlessly. This has always been the mission of TPS® and will continue to be such. TPS®’s current software offerings are available for IBM® AIX®, HP-UX™, Sun® Solaris, Linux®, Windows®, and SCO® UnixWare 7 and OpenServer 5. In addition, a number of these support IBM® zSeries and iSeries Linux®, IBM® OS/390, IBM® 4690 and Stratus.

 

TPS® FUTURE

TPS® is continuing to develop new browser-based solutions. These products are designed to run with various protocols concurrently. This will provide those companies currently using SNA or other protocols, but planning to migrate to TCP/IP, a means to ease that migration. These, and future, products will be designed with substantial customer input. TPS® plans to continue to work with customers to find better ways to integrate the Extranet, Intranet, Internet, internal networks, and enterprise systems. TPS® will evaluate the development of any connectivity project brought to us. TPS® is also working with its Business and Alliance Partners on middle-ware solutions to enhance their core products for new networking initiatives to support wireless communication, micro devices, RFID, J2EE, etc.
