Visual Decision Support – Making High Quality Decisions

Any business makes dozens, hundreds, even thousands of decisions every day. Some are routine, but many are not. As the pace of business increases, more and more decisions have an increasing level of impact on the profitability of your business. If made correctly, then the business becomes more competitive. Made incorrectly, however, and they can quickly add up to a catastrophe. The goal therefore should be to make ‘high quality’ decisions.

A high quality decision is one which sound business judgment is applied to a complete set of information, accurate as of the moment the decision is made, and presented unambiguously.

Introducing DesignShare™ VDS

Actify has a solution for making high-quality decisions that unites all available product data, and links it together with the design information, allowing total flexibility in the presentation and navigation of your product data assets.

Using the power of SharePoint, DesignShareVDS combines data in real time from multiple sources such as PLM, ERP, ECM, and proprietary applications, and associates this information with the actual design data from your CAD applications, allowing you to visually navigate through all the information and ask questions such as:

  • Which parts are behind schedule?
  • Show me the parts in this assembly are at their cost targets but above their weight targets.

If the ability to make high-quality decisions is something your company aspires to, get the white paper and register for a DesignShareVDS webinar. Both are free – but you will get far more than you pay for.
