RAMS Plus is licensed as COTS (commercial off-the-shelf software) to European Civil Aviation Authorities, and other sites on a case-by-case basis.
For other world-wide commercial or governmental agencies, the RAMS Plus simulator can be applied to your ATM simulation requirements in collaboration with ISA Software.
Collaboration with ISA Software ensures you get the highest level of fidelity and results for your analysis, whilst meeting your time-lines and budget requirements. The level of collaboration depends on your requirements, where ISA Software provides a full spectrum of analysis services from abstracting modeling requirements to data development, running the simulations, and producing reports.
In either case above, contact RAMS support to discuss your simulation and usage requirements.
RAMS Plus is a community-supported tool, where your usage fees pay for support and continuing RAMS Plus development, to ensure that RAMS Plus continues to meet & exceed your requirements for a simulator tool.
RAMS Plus is owned, developed, distributed, and supported exclusively by ISA Software.
RAMS Plus is licensed by single-machine (Windows NT/2000/XP), where each single-machine license represents gate-to-gate Airside and Groundside features and can be installed in minutes on any standard off-the-shelf Windows machine. For larger scenarios (10000+ flights), it is preferable to have 512mb or 1g of RAM available on your PC.
A RAMS Plus license includes:
Comprehensive RAMS Plus simulator tool & graphical scenario development environment.
Comprehensive User Manual and Data Manual (in PDF format)
Complementary ATM Analyser report package, including a configurable set of standard reports that recognise RAMS Plus simulation outputs.

After the first year of support, you can choose to continue receiving RAMS Plus support and new releases by paying the continuing support fee.The RAMS Plus continuing support fee is nominal, and traditionally has been approximatelly 30% of the original license fee.
Of course, you are not obliged to continue paying for RAMS Plus support, and can continue to use your RAMS Plus license as long as you like on your existing licensed machine.
