"In an information economy, power is knowing something your competition doesn't."
- Victor E. Hansen, president, MKS

Founded in 1987, MKS, a leading provider of cross enterprise integration software solutions, recognized that corporations, faced with shifting market conditions and mounting competitive pressures, were changing the way they use data.

We combine industry-specific experience and our innovative software tools to deliver true business intelligence and knowledge management across the enterprise to our clients.

Headquartered in Wayne, PA, MKS, offers MIDAS, a full featured integrated distribution and accounting system, and V4, a strategic data analysis and forecasting tool. The combination of V4 and Midas enable decision-makers to analyze large amounts of complex business data captured in the robust MIDAS system as well as other enterprise data sources.

MIDAS is a full-featured, completely integrated, distribution and accounting system. Its advanced features make MIDAS easily adaptable to most business requirements, allowing hundreds of users to share numerous files under a heavy workload. The product's open architecture permits easy integration with other existing networked systems.

A natural extension of its success with MIDAS, MKS launched a new product, V4, a cross enterprise integration tool that incorporates multi-dimensional functionality and business intelligence. The product's unique capability is based on its ability to interpret user requests and data according to the way the requestor thinks about that data. Strategic data analysis and forecasting is performed on data throughout the enterprise, regardless of platform, database systems or other data sources.

With this expanded functionality, flexibility and superior interconnectivity over other data warehousing applications, decision-makers can analyze information about customers, markets, suppliers, financial results, and more. This enables executives in a variety of key industries like telecommunications, finance and retail, for example to strategically learn from the post, adapt in the present, and position for the future.
