Name


ab 02 name


Impressed by thought provoking ideas in Andrew Grove’s book “Only the Paranoid Survive” we came to the name TenForce.
The name refers to chapter 2 in the book, “A ‘10×’ Change.”

A 10× change is in the words of Andrew Grove – Intel CEO – “A change in how some element of one’s business is conducted becomes an order of magnitude larger than what that business is accustomed to.”

TenForce wants to help its customers to become a 10× change itself and resist other 10× changes.
In the end of course we want to become a 10× change ourselves.

Research & Development

randd


Through its research & development TenForce remains an innovative player in information technology. The R&D we do reflects the focus of the company: project management and knowledge management.

As a service provider for project management solutions we want to improve the user experience in this domain. We continuously seek ways to improve user interface and availability of our solution.

We actively participate in standards definition for semantic technology, often referred to as ‘semantic web technology’.

Our expertise is being consulted by ISO (International Organization for Standardization).
We are convinced that semantic technology is a pillar of knowledge management.

That’s why at TenForce ‘semantics’ is much more than a buzz-word, it’s the air we breath.
