Pathway Systems


Pathway Systems International Inc. is an American corporation headquartered in Orlando, Florida,
that designs, develops and sells relationship modeling software.
Although capable of modeling any system of inter-related objects, the software sold under the name Blueprints™, is focused primarily on the Information Technology segment of the market. Any physical or virtual part of an IT system can be visualized with relationship dependencies exposed in a graphical context.
The philosophy of Blueprints™ is to effect assemblage around a common model to transform "tribal knowledge" into shared awareness. In doing so, Blueprints™ provides both local and remote individuals the ability to share the same perspective, seeing each other's actions, resulting in collaboration in real-time.
The company was incorporated by Daniel Evenson in 2008. The genesis of Pathway Systems was the need within the IT industry for a system of visual documentation that was fast, easy to use, and easy to maintain.
The IT Dependency Mapping functionality of Blueprints™ is delivered as a SaaS or virtual appliance.
Although Dependency Modeling and Dependency Mapping are used interchangeably within the IT industry, modeling in the case of Blueprints™ connotes a more dynamic approach to representing business process as effected by software and hardware systems. An describing one small part of the advantages of good dependency modeling is covered within the Fall 2009 Disaster Recovery Journal.
