Presentation synopsis:
This presentation focuses on how the Information Systems Organisation at Sellafield Ltd implemented a programme portfolio management tool to improve data analytics, reporting and increase the efficiency of the department.
Test data is used throughout this presentation.
Conference description:
How will Project Data Analytics (PDA) change project controls in the future?
We all know that one of the key elements to successful project delivery is a robust project control system. But while many of these processes are well established, the ability to make maximum use of the resulting data has often proved challenging. But this is changing.
For those involved in project controls in any way, this conference shared the latest practical uses of PDA as well as a glimpse into the future!
The conference provided insight from a range of PDA practitioners as well as feedback from a recent Delphi research study on the topic.
PDA will be key to the profession as we look forwards, make sure you help us shape it to deliver what we really need.
A series of three presentations were delivered at the NZ Health Congress by Jono Jones (Locus Research), Professor Simon Fraser (Victoria University), and Timothy Allan (Locus Research). On the topics of FEA and Analysis in Healthcare, Additive and Rapid Manufacturing and Lean Startup
Presentation by Davor Cengija from Agile Lean Europe 2014 in Krakow, Poland. http://ale2014.alenetwork.eu/
See how agile and lean principles can help Enterprise Architecture achieve its goals.
Slides from a TED talk held at the Smart.ly conference in Washington D.C. in November 2019. The company covered is MENSALYTICS and offers automated rich meeting notes and strategic decision support based on artificial intelligence (AI) for business leaders.

From this presentation, you will learn why mistakes continue to happen within your organization even with preventative solutions like training, wikis, checklists, and manuals. You'll learn why those solutions aren't effective and what you need to do to become a true learning organization that can effectively prevent mistakes from happening again.
The thousands of others around the globe that have adopted this approach have a competitive advantage over their competition because their recurring mistakes are eliminated, costs are cut, output quality is improved, and workers have more time to focus on continuous improvement and can spend less time putting out fires!

Acquisition of an enterprise EHS MIS solution should ideally involve two key elements:
1. A solid business case
2. A systematic process for selecting an EHS MIS platform
EHS MIS funding requests generally fail when business cases are either non-strategic, too flimsy or lack the ability to capture a platform’s ability to aid in cost avoidance versus cost reduction. In essence, decision-makers who hold the purse strings must be presented with “compelling reasons” for sign-off on a platform
purchase.
Once funding has been approved, a methodical selection process ensures your company chooses the right solution to meet the needs of your organization.

Notes from the field - End User ComputingJames Charter
Long View Systems presentation to VMware Knowledge Series on End User Computing. What are we seeing in the field in EUC, what are some approaches for success that can be applied to make projects and adoption more successful.
Many people think of lean, agile, and lean startup as separate processes. In this presentation we'll talk about how they actually evolved from each other, share the same mindset, and can be combined to be more powerful.
This conversation will discuss common problems / challenges for using spreadsheets for the APQP business process and will also include advice on how to get your project funded. It will include a review of a database application that was designed by volunteers that have been using spreadsheets for over 10 years. Their requirement included "Better than spreadsheets, but not too complicated, our we will go back to spreadsheets!"
Stop managing ppap submissions with xls and email mar 2 2020John Cachat
Discusses how the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) can either be a significant risk or a significant benefit to your company.
Finance - PPAP approval impacts revenue recognition and cash flow
Engineering – on-time product launch makes money, delays cost money
Legal – the product liability lawyers are now asking more than just FMEA, they want to see the PPAP
Purchasing – if you do not actually review the Supplier PPAP information, don’t ask for it
Marketing – protect the brand – no recalls
Sales – use a robust PPAP process as a competitive advantage

Software validation do's and dont's may 2013John Cachat
Software validation is often times a very misunderstood concept. For FDA regulated industries, there are clear expectations including “the least burdensome approach.” Validation alone does not guarantee software quality—many other aspects of software engineering are required.
Join software expert, John Cachat, as he discusses how to solve several software validation issues, including:
Requirements
Defect Prevention
Time and Effort
Software Life Cycle
Plans
Procedures
Software Validation After a Change
Validation Coverage
Independence of Review
Flexibility and Responsibility
Bridging the gap between quality and finance may 2013John Cachat
Quality in your organization: Is it a competitive advantage, or just another cost of doing business?
Quality and finance may not always see eye to eye, but are they really that different? Great gains can be made by quality and accounting working together when the main focus is cause and effect analysis. John Cachat, an expert in quality management system software and design, will share insight on how to more effectively open communication to get your project funded.
• Quality professionals need a better understanding of financial terms and approaches
• Finance professionals need a better understanding of Quality terms and approaches
• Everyone needs to learn how to significantly improve situations over which they have control
People and process will drive the correct application of technology. Culture will eat technology for lunch.
Apqp bumming you out briefing may 30 2013John Cachat
Sales can’t update the customer on launch status. Engineering spends more time updating Gantt charts than they do actually engineering stuff. Quality can’t find the documentation. Purchasing has no idea when the supplier status is. Sound familiar?
What this means is:
• Products are late
• Quality is unacceptable
• Resources are wasted
• Problems are repeated
What we have found is that Project Management is done with the wrong tools and/or people
• Resources are over-scheduled
• Issues are not resolved
• True costs are unknown / inaccurate
What we have found with Project Management Software
• Tools are cumbersome, force detailed information that is unknown
• People resort back to XLS
• Management cannot support the team and resort to firefighting issues
Learn about an approach to APQP and a SaaS technology that allows you to implement APQP the right way and engage your people and suppliers to improve communication, and launch higher quality products faster and on-time and under budget.
An exciting alternative for quality management software april 2013John Cachat
John Cachat has created a new Quality Management System (QMS) software platform. This is not just another application; it is the next generation platform. As an internationally recognized visionary in the QMS software space, this is a must attend event.
Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.
Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

It would be illogical to
assume that all conditions
remain stable.
Spock, "The Enterprise Incident“

5. Today’s Discussion
• The theoretical implementation
• Why systems fail
• Four types of system failures
• Consequences of system failures
• Organizational risks
• So, why do systems fail?
6. Theoretically…
• System is purchased
• System is implemented
• All issues are known and addressed
• System is activated – “the go live”
• Post production support and training is performed
• Company maintains the system
• The consultants leave
6
7. Why Systems Fail
• Failed to identify key business requirements
• Data conversion issues
• Testing is delayed
• Go Live is delayed, over and over again
• Reporting is inadequate
• Inadequate resources – “people have full time jobs”
• Project becomes adversarial
• Project goes live with no post-production support
7
8. Four Types Of System Failures
• The unmitigated disaster
– millions spent, junk the system, lawsuits
• The big failure
– way over budget and way over time frame, with less
functionality than promised
• The mild failure
– A little over budget, a little late, most functionality
• The forthcoming failure
– Under budget, on time, but….
8
9. The Forthcoming Failure
• Key mistakes that will haunt
the organization
• End users do not understand
the system and revert to the
old ways
• Documentation is poor
• Only a few employees
understand the system
• Key benefits not realized
9
10. Consequences of System Failures
• Employee’s job’s become more difficult
• New system with no benefits
• Data lost, inaccurate, ….
• Key employees quit
• Company moral drops
• Executives, project manager’s get fired
10
11. On-going Organizational Risks
• Systems upgrades
• New functionality
• Mergers & acquisitions
• Staff reductions
• Employee turnovers
• Changes to business processes
11
12. So, Why Do Systems Fail?
• The people
• The process
• The technology
• The approach
– Vendors push software
– Company’s buy software with poor preparation
– Company’s implement software with
• Inexperienced project managers
• People with full time jobs
• Without understanding their processes
12
13. How to Do Systems the Right Way
Create User Models That Sit on Top of The System
Use Systems Out of the Box
13
14. Things to Remember….
• Rare is the implementation that is under budget
and on time and give users the functionality that
was promised
• People, Process & Technology
• Culture will each technology for lunch
