SVG is the elegant face of XML where XML is the elegant expression of an idea. The idea is only that for information systems to mature and progress naturally, anyone's system ought to be able to communicate seamlessly and yet independently with anyone elses system. This notion, the liberation of customers and integrators to express, exchange, route and make sense of data across platforms and across technology domains, has grown to become a guiding force in decision-making as capable and literate customers and integrators seek to maximize the reach and flexibility of their IT infrastructure investments.

Software Mechanics is headquartered in Brisbane, Australia. Customers include leading global enterprises including IBM, Ford, Boeing, EDS, NEC, Nokia, Coca-Cola, Citibank, Daimler Chrysler, GE, AT&T, Microsoft, NTT and Sony, some of the world's leading scientific research institutes and educational institutions, many of the world's largest manufacturers and designers of weapons of mass destruction, that inventor who made the lawnmower thing you can ride on the footpath, people in Oregon who create new opportunities for blind people, some folks in a shed in Tennessee who know things nobody else knows about adhesive, and more than one group of people in Seoul who had to have the software right away.
