Business Process Reengineering (BPR)

Opportunities exist where organizations seek to create new capabilities or ways of doing business, implement complex technology-based programs, or improve the performance of ongoing operations.

Wizdom was the first company to recognize CPR (Computer-aided Process Reengineering), a new paradigm for BPR, and has developed the only complete and integrated set of software tools for creating, editing, and analyzing business process and information models. The Wizdom approach has also been selected by the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG) to optimize the supply chain between Ford, GM, Chrysler, and its suppliers. This innovative approach has lead groups to select Wizdom as a partner for development of the next generation of BPR methods and tools. Wizdom methodologies such as IDEF have also been mandated by Aerospace companies, the Federal Government, NATO, and numerous consulting firms. We also offer:

Knowledge Management (KM)

Success in the discipline of KM requires enterprises to fully leverage their intellectual capital: the collection of information, knowledge, and experience that allows them to perform their mission and to adapt to constantly changing requirements. By managing intellectual capital effectively, organizations can create a climate where information sharing and continuous learning is a normal part of doing business. KM takes a systematic approach to the creation and capture of knowledge organization-wide, and makes it available to individual knowledge workers and work groups, as they need it.

Cultural/Behavioral Change

Wizdom recognizes the significance of culture in effective organizational change. We know that culture, through structure and order, provides consistency for the organization and its people. We are sensitive to the unique reality faced by leaders in various domains.

Wizdom has the ability to assess corporate culture and create culturally-sensitive implementation strategies. With 200 collective years of management experience, information systems, telecommunications, manufacturing, human resources, and marketing, Wizdom has a proven track record in organizational management.


Business Engineering - Solution View

For over a decade, Wizdom has maintained its position on the leading edge of change. Wizdom was the first to create a BPR software tool (1987); the first to create a standardized BPR methodology (Minerva, 1987); the first to create a software tool for cultural analysis (AssessTech, 1994); and has created a new family of forward thinking products and services for the future.

Wizdom has maintained its position of leadership due to our dedication to excellence and our belief that advanced technology, when combined with human performance enhancement, is the competitive advantage. Wizdom's Minerva methodology aligns technical systems (workflow, work process) and social systems (people, culture) with an organization's strategy to improve its long term capabilities.


Supply Chain and Electronic Commerce

As companies become more efficient, the biggest gains are soon found outside the walls of the organization and in the reengineering and managing of its supply base. Tools for Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and electronic commerce are allowing companies to redesign the way they do business and make significant reductions in cost and lead time. Wizdom works with its clients to identify and implement best practices, improve inter-company processes with key suppliers, and implement electronic commerce technologies. Wizdom has provided supply chain management services for Ford, GM, Chrysler, Johnson Controls, the Apparel Industry, and the U.S. Air Force.


Next Generation Tools

Wizdom Continuously seeks creative techniques and emerging technologies to develop cutting edge tools for Business Process Reengineering (BPR). Wizdom's integrated tools known as WizdomWorks!TM98 have an open architecture approach allowing them to be flexible and supportive of the full BPR life-cycle.


Information Systems

A major goal for Wizdom is maximizing the use of information in this global economy. This includes assisting clients to realize benefits of quality and cost effectiveness for information delivery systems at local, regional, state, and national levels. To facilitate this objective requires a comprehensive knowledge of the standards and data exchange needed to produce an open, seamless sharing of financial, operational, administrative and educational information in a standard, electronic format. The staff at Wizdom has extensive programming, information systems consulting, applications design, and database experience.


Benchmarking

The Wizdom staff is experience in evaluating and helping clients identify and plan for benchmarked improvement. We work with our clients to ensure that they properly identify what benchmarks they need, selectively produce key metrics, and assure optimal data collection. Wizdom will assist your search for industry best practices that lead to superior performance.
