Visualization-based Systems Engineering
Making systems engineering accessible.
Systems engineering is as complex as the problems it tries to solve. IT Cadre uses a set of robust visual tools that aids understanding and communication between all parties, improves the efficiency in identifying and resolving obstacles, and helps clients select the best possible solution. These efficiencies translate into a quicker implementation of the solution and significant cost savings for the client.
Methodology for Vision Achievement (MVA)
MVA is systems engineering at its best. It enables development of powerful integrated visual depictions of complex systems, programs and solutions. MVA produces a single picture that everyone including senior leadership, technical staff and end user organizations can use to see a strategic, logical and operational view of the current environment and the end-state solution. Each diagram is customized based on the client’s business objectives, business processes, environment and project. To learn more about MVA, click here.
Standard Approach Evaluation (SAE)
The end-state solution becomes an operation plan by walking a client through IT Cadre’s Standard Approach Evaluation (SAE). The SAE process begins with the client’s goals and objectives. By adding a base understanding of the current operating environment with our understanding of the software systems utilized, our architects and engineers determine each possible approach to create a viable solution that meets the client’s goals and objectives – a true high level technical architecture.
Our engineers extract the assumptions, constraints and restraints from each of these solutions and present them to the project owner and drivers to establish the true requirements that drive the project.
Resolution Grid
It happens to almost every organization. The approach to satisfy one project conflicts with the approach for another. You see it, but how do you make others understand?
It Cadre's Resolution Grid is an interactive approach to making these relationships clear. Our engineers lay out the grid and then walk the client through the dependencies, tradeoffs and impacts while recording the decisions made. This technique has been responsible for resolving in hours issues that have been unresolved for months.
IT Cadre utilizes clear, effective visual tools with fundamental systems engineering principles to improve customer communications and comprehension as well as accelerate commitments. Through these efficiencies, IT Cadre helps customers achieve what they need and want quicker and for less cost than they thought possible.
