The buzz phrase of the 1990`s for the petroleum software industry has become ``buy, don`t build.`` For an end user in an oil company, this generally means acquiring application software rather than developing it internally. The concept of buy, don`t build can also apply for a software developer. Purchasing software toolkit components can expedite the development of an application as well as reduce future support requirements.
