As the name suggests, Corporate Modelling's reason for being is to promote and develop tools that allow businesses, large and small, to model their organisation in its entirety and then deploy these models into IT systems. Corporate models facilitate financial, operational and quality gains, many of which can be delivered for a very low cost by simply changing the way work is done, and closely monitoring new approaches to maintain costs, quality and throughput.

Having gained insights into the practical side of what does and does not work, what does or does not add value, and especially what is practical, we looked at the products and repositories which we have been developing and shall be releasing, and we realised that in many circumstances what was being developed was too much! This is not to say that the requirements were not there; rather that the market and the practitioners in the market have yet to be able to focus on what the overall content of a full blown corporate modelling exercise would look like.

In particular it has been difficult to create a commercial case for developing a full-blown model without first demonstrating the commercial worth of sub-components of such a model. This led us to review the way we approached the whole corporate model. We have split our offering into several smaller offerings, each of which, as it comes to market, will be a standalone leader in its own right, and a core component of an unrivalled homogenous corporate modelling suite. In this way our partners and practitioners can use these core components for a quick tactical win, while building a strategic foothold as their customers see the benefits, and derive real gains, from each stage of the construction of their overall model.

Corporate Modelling will produce custom methods and tools sets for consultancies and organisations who need specific approaches to specific problems they are facing.

• enable organisations to model their services, organisation hierarchies, resources and business
processes
• enable corporates through advanced application generators to create and deploy systems from these models
• provide corporates with the tools for performance monitoring and improvement measuring real time cost,quality and service levels
• empower organisations to reduce costs and increase efficiency,productivity and quality across the products and services being provided while being able continually to develop towards these goals and monitor in real time the effect of changes to corporateprocesses, procedures or practices
• empower distributed organisations (e.g. design in the UK, build in China and sell in the USA)
