I've extended the Flex Dashboard from Adobe Devnet for a few applications. Pretty easy to take out the ability to close/minimize and you'd be left with a tiling container that supports maximization and drag/drop re-ordering.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/samples/dashboard/dashboard.html You could also look at using something like FlowBox from the FlexLib project and add support for maximizing a single child to that.
