However, when the product is in full-swing, what we do in the case company I have studied, is just balance the capacities of the factories that were chosen in the 'DSN design' phase.<br /><br />Has anyone of you thought about the problematics of validating the DSS's through a product's lifecycle? From the case study I have found that the SCM DSS in the case company was detached from financial reporting system, and this made the SCM optimality validation very tedious and manual. <br /><br />If any of you are interested in this topic, I would be glad to obtain feedback on the work you've done.<br /><br />All the best and hope to hear from you - TeemuTeemu Joelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00712672937502457619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561821254830575572.post-18931961764567112202009-03-23T11:51:00.000-07:002009-03-23T11:51:00.000-07:00Hi Jerry,I know we are in very strange hectic time...Hi Jerry,<BR/>I know we are in very strange hectic times.<BR/>Times for which planning is a true odysee.<BR/>How are you?<BR/>Why is this silence prolongued for so long?<BR/>Is it possible the construction of a monologue?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561821254830575572.post-29332144703686115562008-12-09T10:16:00.000-08:002008-12-09T10:16:00.000-08:00Hi Jerry,It is refreshing and motivational to read...Hi Jerry,<BR/>It is refreshing and motivational to read Hank´s note.<BR/>He points out the changing IFPS´s timing to PC platform for the achievement of momentum and success.<BR/>It is one of main problems for being a visionary creator, as IFPS was.<BR/>Now, Jerry, I think you point again in the visionary direction: the next evolutionary planning success will be achieved in the human domain.<BR/>As an outsider of comupter programming or developer, I find now many exciting tools (as Planners Lab) to accomplish this goal.<BR/>The point is how to translate our personal and group expreince to accomplish this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561821254830575572.post-34956517261625610402008-12-08T18:29:00.000-08:002008-12-08T18:29:00.000-08:00hello:my name is hank dreyfuss.i was the third emp...hello:<BR/><BR/>my name is hank dreyfuss.<BR/>i was the third employee of<BR/>execucom systems back in<BR/>the day. i do miss the<BR/>excitement of a new product<BR/>in a new market. we just<BR/>were early in the pc power<BR/>curve to achieve global<BR/>status. when the decision<BR/>was made to to devote resources to the develope<BR/>of a pc based product, we<BR/>were under capitalized<BR/>and out of timing luck.<BR/><BR/>after all the acquisitions<BR/>and developement of comshare's, ifps/plus for<BR/>windows product, time had<BR/>run out. the product of<BR/>all our labors is still<BR/>without peer.

I really think this matter is of crucial importance for the education of the young people. When Willis Harman was here in Guadalajara for the last International Empathy Gathering in 1995, he emphasized in his keynote speach the importance of changing the credit mentality to a balanced mind if we are to have a sustainable world in the future. He also made emphasis in creativity and discernement as the key elements in making all type of desitions... business, personal, institutional and governmental. I know that these matters are not always appreciated by business officers and general people. It is the reason why I know your contribution is so important. So, don´t give up. I am sure we finally will get this planners lab understanding to many young students... if older people is stuck with old ways of thinking and living their life. Just remember the IFPS. Now this process ok making multiple instantaneous assumptions has changed the way the work, act and plan our lives in general. Now it is coming the time for extending the assumptions from financial investments to daily activities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561821254830575572.post-28876215835370083122008-07-08T09:31:00.000-07:002008-07-08T09:31:00.000-07:00Hi Pepin, thanks so very much for you persistence....Hi Pepin, thanks so very much for you persistence.

I never talk to anyone that uses the words Decision Support to mean that. Everytime they use DSS (or Decision Support) they are talking about analyzing past data to discover something from the past. They are not using the term in relation to making strategic decisions via analyzing what if scenarios about the future. <BR/><BR/>There is so much new "stuff" happening especially and usually referred to as being associated with web 2.0. A lot of this deals with receiving real time or current information to support decison making. That also fits, i.e., it is not analyzing what happened last quarter or looking at trends over the past 10 years. That is important but in the DSS context only if used to make strategic decisions about the future (in my view).<BR/><BR/>This is not a blog about the Planners Lab but what here is what we've found. It does not belong in finance, accounting, or IT. They are all preoccupied with provided data about what happened last quarter. We are now thinking that a new group needs to be formed in organizations - DSS groups. A group that has skills in modeling and visualization to support decsion makers with their thinking about the future. Something that today is rarely practiced.<BR/><BR/>How do we go about starting something to rise out of the ashes of DSS from 25 years ago? Maybe the new technology trends can be incorporated?<BR/><BR/>Thanks and best too you. I hope others will also respond.<BR/><BR/>JerryJerry Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04803798938001480354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561821254830575572.post-14076967925123129552008-06-13T06:07:00.000-07:002008-06-13T06:07:00.000-07:00Jerry:Feel free to start a new thread with this if...Jerry:<BR/><BR/>Feel free to start a new thread with this if you'd like...<BR/><BR/>Where is everyone??? On summer vacation??!! <BR/><BR/>In doing some work for the IFIP 8.3 working group on DSS I noticed that most curricula don't use the term DSS anymore -- at least not in course titles. The course titles contain "Knowledge Management" and "Business Intelligence." Dig a little deeper and you find that the course description contains phrases like "support for decision making" or even (surprise!) "construction of DSS."<BR/><BR/>So, what's in a name? Do we have an identity crisis? Have we, perhaps, done ourselves more harm than good by burying the term DSS as we've improved our skills and our tool kits? If you think about the DSS field from a "branding" perspective, we've lost our identity and maybe our "raison d'etre" is unclear. (I'm going to France for IFIP 8.3 in a couple of weeks -- needed to work in some practice there ;-) ) Seriously, I think the DSS concept -- whatever you may call it -- is fundamental to so many IT issues (we build these systems to improve decision making, so it should impact which systems get built, how they are designed, how they are evaluated, etc. etc.) that it may be THE core concept of our field and probably should be a core concept in business generally. Yet, I have colleagues in the B-school that argue there is no need for an MIS class in the core business curriculum. I don't think they know what we do -- and it's probably our fault!<BR/><BR/>What do you think?<BR/><BR/>DavidDavid Paradicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00075228217842692358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561821254830575572.post-2733629275811774742008-04-30T11:37:00.000-07:002008-04-30T11:37:00.000-07:00This blog is not about the Planners Lab.
