About Us

IdeaWeavers develops custom web-based management, business process, and reporting systems. We base all of our solutions on the Common Thread(tm) platform which is a modular, web-based business management system.We designed Common Thread(tm) to handle all of the fundamentals of business and to allow you to only use the parts you need.

Common Thread can replace several systems in a low-risk, phased manner. Our unique approach separates us from all of the other software firms that you have ever talked to. We do not believe in lengthy engagements that waste both time and money.

Focusing on a quick turnaround on key projects fosters a constant feedback of our progress and prevents huge end-of-implementation $urprise$. Our Philosophy is to respect the use of your company's resources, both human and monetary. We believe everything produced should support the revenue goals of your business.
