HOW WE INNOVATE
Modeling and simulation is a multi-billion dollar industry nationwide. Major Department of Defense customers in Hampton Roads, like the U.S. Joint Forces Command, and the presence of one of the nation’s leading academic modeling and simulation research centers, the Virginia, Modeling, Analysis, and Simulation Center (VMASC) are fueling the rapid growth. One challenge reported within the industry locally is the availability of qualified research and development staff.
Our Approach
Our approach consists of three inter-related elements:
- Selecting a team that brings broad experience from multiple funtional areas to the solution.
- Creating a streamlined, efficient organization that is focused on identifying quality and implementing best pratices through concerted activities.
- Measuring performance and improvement through cost savings and productivity metrics.
This approach integrates group review of all tasks and projects, helping eliminate technical or adminstrative errors or omissions. The group review includes action plans that correct problems and implement improvement solutions. This creates a feedback loop within WernerAnderson, enabling continuous process/project quality improvement.
