Organisations today have to deal with a wide variety of problems involving tasks, resources
and time, in domains such as project management, manufacturing, maintenance and operations.
Typically, "best of breed" domain-specific tools are used to enable each
particular business unit to carry out its work, but this mix of domain-focused systems
brings with it a range of problems:
-
The traditional domain-specific representations of data can be inadequate when data volumes increase -
for example, using only Gantt charts to construct and manage a 10,000 activity project. When this
occurs, tools from other domains (eg spreadsheets, CAD systems) are often pressed into service in an attempt
to alleviate the limitations of the domain-specific tool.
-
Domain-specific tools tend to be focused on "back end" processing, with little or no support for "front end" tasks
such as modelling, generating intuitive management information or visualisation of potential problems.
-
It is often the case that physical resources such as staff or machinery are shared between several domain-specific systems,
but management has no global view of how these resources are planned to be used, or how changes to demand in one system
may impact the operation of others
QEI Exec is a high performance graphical modelling tool which is designed specifically to alleviate this class
of problem. Using the standard functionality or by further customisation, you can rapidly develop management
applications to allow you to
-
combine data from multiple sources into a coherent vision
-
identify potential problems well in advance and model alternative solutions
-
create intuitive graphical views of your business operations
-
generate accurate management information and make it available online
