Abstract: Let $omeg{a}_{m}athfrakg$ be a Lie algebra valued differential $1$-form on a manifold $M$ satisfying the structure equations $domeg{a}_{m}athfrakg+frac12omeg{a}_{m}athfrakgwedgeomeg{a}_{m}athfrakg=0$ where $mathfrakg$ is solvable. We show that the problem of finding a smooth map $ho:MoG$, where $G$ is an $n$-dimensional solvable Lie group with Lie algebra $mathfrakg$ and left invariant Maurer-Cartan form $au$, such that $h{o}^{\ast }au=omeg{a}_{m}athfrakg$ can be solved by quadratures and the matrix exponential. In the process we give a closed form formula for the vector fields in Lie's third theorem for solvable Lie algebras. A further application produces the multiplication map for a simply connected $n$-dimensional solvable Lie group using only the matrix exponential and $n$ quadratures. Applications to finding first integrals for completely integrable Pfaffian systems with solvable symmetry algebras are also given.
