Ab Initio Business Rules Environment (BRE) and Express>It

The Ab Initio Business Rules Environment (BRE) allows business analysts to specify business rules in a form that is very familiar and comfortable to them: grid-like spreadsheets. In the BRE, the rules are specified in business terms, not technical terms, and with expressions that are clear to anyone who has worked with Microsoft Excel. As a consequence, not only can rules be specified quickly and accurately, they are also easily understood by other business people.
