“The program actually exceeded my expectations. The program did an excellent job focusing our team and allowed us to develop not only a demonstration of a concept which we were having difficulty communicating clearly with Boeing, but also a Strategy Level business case that will be briefed twice this week with Boeing (corporate phantom works and Military Aerospace Support Strategic Business Council). Outstanding job of facilitation and we all enjoyed the process and motivation it brought to our diverse team!”

“What happens when a group of IT brainiacs and senior sales and operations hot shots get together for a week? It could have been tentative posturing and trivial solutions. Somehow, the group functioned at a level of honesty, insight, and productivity that will REDEFINE MOST of our current business processes. This was not even my executive staff! How could this group turn out to be so smart and I never realized it before?”

“A CTE workshop is a great way to jumpstart new application development! In just three weeks, it aligned our business, IT, and end users on the goals and requirements for the application. In addition, the team prepared a comprehensive business case, a prototype, an executive briefing, and a spiral-based implementation roadmap. While at the Center of Innovation, the team was exposed to truly out-of-box thinking which has breathed new life into our organization. The workshops saved us months in requirements gathering and in aligning the user community, and boosted our morale. We’ve institutionalized CTE’s workshop approach for all new application development.”

“Automating certain aspects of the clinical drug trial process results in a remarkable reduction in time to market and drug development costs. It will reduce costs, but on a broader level, it will provide us with a way to significantly expedite our development processes, increasing the numbers of medications we can provide to a public that is more and more in need of them. With the software solution, Pfizer expects that each clinical drug trial will take less time and money. Time to market will be decreased, thus enhancing the revenue potential for each pharmaceutical.”

“This aviation parts distributor knew they needed an automated solution for the FreeStock program. They implemented a wireless solution using software from CTE together with Symbol SPT 1700 handheld devices [with a bar code scanner] in order to better serve their customers and automate the process. Their approach was to ensure strong user acceptance by first working with CTE in order to develop prototypes that could be demonstrated to end users. This interactive approach helped them to refine the functionality on the device and test the solution early on.”
