Semantic integration is a reality within Federal agencies. The Unicorn System is already being put to work on Federal projects.

As leader of next-generation Information Resource Management systems, Unicorn is focused on providing the world’s most comprehensive infrastructure for managing Federal data. As such, Unicorn’s expert teams partner closely with each of its customers, gaining a deep understanding of their data management needs and ensuring a high-level success rate of customer projects.

Unicorn’s unique approach - Semantic Information Management (SIM) - goes beyond the use of informal metadata and allows data to be managed by capturing the formal business meaning - or semantics - of the data.

SIM enables Federal agencies to reuse existing Federal architectures and re-engineer existing data assets that already for the core of agency work. The Unicorn System also provides a repository for cataloging disparate data assets, semantic mapping of individual data assets to a central Information Model, the automated generation of data translation (code) scripts, and publication of a data management portal.

This approach is of particular importance to Federal agencies needing to integrate critical data from many sources and needing to know where their data is, what it means, and how it relates to other data. In addition, such agencies need to know and relate to data's reliability, classification, and security. The Unicorn System provides a comprehensive solution allowing hundreds of disparate data sources and message formats to be managed together as a seamless body of information, a suitable response to Federal Government data headaches.
