A Strategic Plan to make Maximum Use of the Common Excel/VBA Platform in Engineering and Management throughout your Organization

SpreadsheetWorld provides leadership in the application of Excel, Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) and Excel/VBA-based tools to the professional fields of engineering, science, management and finance. SpreadsheetWorld and its strategic partners offer a broad array of products and services designed to fulfill that mission. Through the application of our processes, training and tools, SpreadsheetWorld clients realize a dramatic and immediate change in the scope and use of Excel and VBA to accomplish real-world problems. The scope is broadened and the use is dramatically increased. These changes provide our clients with impressive improvements in both immediate and long term productivity.

SpreadsheetWorld will work with your Management, Engineering, and Information Technology staff to develop and implement a strategic plan to implement processes and products designed to reduce engineering and management expenses and increase capabilities. The processes are designed to leverage your technical and management expertise and sharpen methods to harvest knowledge assets and make it more readily available on a common platform. The framework provides a process where the capability grows naturally from within each area of expertise where it is most needed, by those who have the most knowledge of the technology. Once in place, the process produces knowledge and models on a common platform which can better integrate the modeling and analysis environment for day-to-day computational operations. This should enable shorter concept-to-launch cycles by compressing the Engineering lead time. The popularity and power of Excel and VBA has placed it in a strategically important position, which presents a unique opportunity to simplify, improve, and integrate engineering and costing processes which will ultimately reduce the cost of engineering.

Program Initiation

Your organization can initiate this program by scheduling a no-cost, initial planning meeting with SpreadsheetWorld and your key staff. The meeting begins with a 60 minute presentation to provide a overview of the Spreadsheet Aided Enterprise Program. We would work in advance to layout the structure for post-presentation discussion so that we could efficiently establish a draft Enterprise Strategic Plan (ESP). SpreadsheetWorld would then use that ESP to go back and prepare a cost proposal based on the ESP. The attendees at this meeting should draw heavily from existing course alumni, but should also include key decision decision makers at your organization as it is very important that this program be supported by top level management, technical and Information Technology staff.
