# Distribution Networks

> Distribution Networks (Pty) Ltd owns and develops the Shared Core Engine, the evidence, rules and workflow technology behind Botswana's business software, and licenses it on perpetual terms to the operating company that takes solutions to market. Based in Gaborone, Botswana.

Key facts:
- The core is shared code, never shared data: each solution runs in its own deployment with its own tenants, encryption keys and ledger.
- Licensees receive a perpetual, irrevocable licence with source access held in escrow.
- Solutions licensed on the engine: Be (Botswana Employment) and BCS (partner channel execution). More are built with industry partners.
