When Siemens
needed a system developed quickly to meet requirements for ISO 4000 Quality
Assurance Certification, they called on Paradigm Systems. We assessed
the existing process, designed a new automated database for IS personnel
to manage the documents and perform associated functions, and then created
an application which integrated with office automationfor users to search,
cross-reference, display, print, and merge the documents themselves. The
application was cited as a key feature in their successful certification. |

When the California
legislature granted $50 million to jump-start DNA laboratories in their
efforts to reduce the backlog in unsolved crimes, a mechanism was required
to track the cases, the expenditures, and the program. Paradigm Systmes
was brought on board by the California Department of Jutice to quickly
develop a process and application. We created a web-enabled database with
complex access rights. The system was transaction-based, and records tracked
progress of a sample through multiple steps. The law enforcement agencies
could see the status of their cases, and management at a variety of levels
could oversee productivity. The system included a complete billing and
accounting function. |

Activity Based
Management System (ABMS) - For this multi-million dollar Oracle implementation
for the California Department of General Services, the role of Paradigm
Systems soon evolved from that of oversight to that of partner to the
DGS Program Manager and sponsors. Paradigm's involvement included requirements
analysis (we found over 200 errors), process analysis and documentation,
system modeling and sizing, system architecture design, identification
and development of interfaces to other agencies, internal and external
communication, structured walk-throughs, development of testing software,
performance monitoring and tuning, etc. |

Executive
Information System (EIS) - We were so successful with the ABMS project
that DGS asked us to stay on and create an executive system that would
perform intelligent forecasting and tracking, projections, and comparitive
analysis. Completed under budget and under schedule, this project became
a showpiece for the organization. |

In order to
prepare their managers for annual training, Bank of America needed a process
and a tool that would allow the managers to assess where they stood in
the eyes of their associates. Requirements were analyzed, the process
was designed, and then the application was developed. The system has since
been adopted by many other companies. |
