Functional Uses of DEMIS


By creating a baseline dynamic enterprise model and MIB in the above management steps, we identify and reduce redundancy and duplication efforts within the enterprise, reducing administrative and operational overhead costs. Trimming these costs gains the enterprise permanent responsiveness, efficiency, and effectiveness improvements.

All the data, information, and knowledge necessary to create the model currently exist within and around each enterprise. It would not function otherwise. However, it is does not usually have useful patterns of form and flow. It is often confusing and unwieldy, with unconstrained variation. It therefore contains too much non-informing data, also known as noise or excess overhead, a waste of resources. The most likely object classes to contain or generate excessive overhead is the organization and mission object classes, primarily because their composition is usually based on subjective decisions by the enterprise executives, rather than more objective decisions.

Building the DEMIS resolves/organizes this data, information, and knowledge into a simple ordered structure, which we then use for simultaneous analysis and transaction processing, and for change management. It also provides the capability to view the enterprise in many forms, all variations on a common theme.

By building and maintaining a system that displays the dynamic relationships between these object classes, the DEMIS delivers significant useful information to the enterprise at each phase of informing/involving/coordinating system implementation, for all stage of supplier activities.
