The Challenge: Improve team productivity and reduce costs  
In today's software markets, where custom applications directly compete with lower cost standard software applications and standard applications compete with one another, construction costs and time-to-market are the most crucial technical success factors. Team productivity is the key to reduce both.
The Solution: Model-Driven Code Generation
To improve competitiveness of custom software it is necessary to borrow quality attributes, low cost and short time-to-implementation from standard software. Typically these goals are reached by means of software reuse. However, in the domain of database applications it's important to see that the application model is very specific. Therefore the application must be modeled and reuse has to occur by means of generating executable, quality-assured code from these models. 
Key features of tangible architect 
With tangible architect, the model-driven code generator for .NET Database Applications you can boost your teams productivity dramatically and achieve more with less man-hours. With tangible architect you can
