q Information flow among systems, and across departments, is cumbersome and expensive

q Business information is trapped in poorly-connected silos

The Key Pictures

Each CMC Systems Workshop delivers four views of the solution. In collaboration with our clients, these views address the following questions:

q Where are we now?

q Where are we going?

q How do we get there?

Workflow Prototype: Captures the systems functional flow and user interface. Using the actual workflow solution, prototype the flow of information and actions across the systems. What actions steps and decisions are to be made, and by whom? Who needs access to what information, when? What are the major stage gates and milestones?

Infrastructure Map: Diagram the current configuration of systems, servers, databases, and processes. Which systems or databases, will be feeding the new solution? Which ones will be fed, by the new solution? Which systems are slated for retirement or consolidation, and what are the solution impacts?

Information Flow: For existing systems, capture the end-to-end flow and user interaction. Where do internal and external data feeds come from? How are users interacting with the system, in the current and to-be state?

Dashboards and Reports: Up front, prototype the user-facing components of the new system. Incorporate feedback on function and ease-of-use, for executive, management, and operational users. Validate any assumptions about data sources and integration requirements.
