Helping set standards

WISDM helped an insurance company standardize the operations of its 26 HMOs. Medical staff and businesspeople from each region developed a model for functions that could be performed corporate-wide or customized for different regions. The model also defined a standard process for each HMO to provide corporate executives with knowledge needed to effectively manage the operation

Integrating across functions

The WISDM method showed a main-frame computer company how to re-engineer its manufacturing process, including the information systems that support manufacturing.  The resulting model completely integrated financial, strategic planning, resource management, quality inspection, and component assembly functions.
