The BitSlice-Core consists of a set of abstractions for the definition and management of 'Core Business Information' across a range of application domains. It encapsulates design patterns for processing and maintenance of Master Data into a set of 'abstract classes' with well defined 'APIs'. The core also contains generic components that can be used across a variety of application systems. These components provide a uniform and consistent service layer for processing and maintenance of 'Core Business Entities' thereby aiding in effective Master Data Management. The core can be extended to create component sets for vertical business domains.

The core has been extended to create the BitSlice Standard Edition. Given below is a list of the important classes that form part of the extendable 'Core'.
