ISD’s Appraisal Wizard and Model Wizard software products are the most mature and widely used tools for determining and maintaining compliance with multiple process models and standards. Method Park’s Stages software product forms a powerful system for defining, managing and enacting processes. Improved interfaces between the product suites will bring substantial savings to current and future clients wishing to automate both their process enactment and process compliance determination activities.
Joseph Morin, ISD CEO, says:
We are very excited about this collaboration. Our companies share the philosophy of providing high quality, high value products and services. By working together we will be able to leverage our respective strengths to the benefit of our clients.
Erich Meier, Method Park CTO, says:
We see an excellent fit in terms of both our technologies and business approaches. We believe that this collaboration, including actively responding to the needs of our shared clients, will lead to significant reductions in the costs of continuous process improvement efforts. This will be particularly true for our clients utilizing best practices from multiple models and standards.
Both companies see this as a first step in tighter integration of the product suites. Demonstrations of current capabilities and a roadmap of future plans will be unveiled at the SEI’s annual SEPG conference the week of March 22.
