HOW WE DO IT
Snowflake is an intelligent system that, without the need of an analyst, administrator or system integrator, creates flexible virtual representations of user organizations. It actively manages the layers of relationships between people and between their tasks (including third parties). Snowflake’s design and rules automatically guide proper management process flow and provide security while enabling unprecedented coordination, visibility and truly seamless integration internally and with outside organizations.
The Snowflake platform and the Integrated Task Management (ITM) environment that rides upon it dramatically improve an organization’s ability to precisely articulate task assignments, coordinate timing of their performance and monitor status while maintaining appropriate managerial authorities in today’s complex, constantly changing and multi-party “organizations”.
As a Snowflake forms it automatically maps the organizations unique hierarchy, establishing authorities and visibility. Teams can also be created that consist of members from any number of Snowflakes with each Team having its own authority hierarchy and visibility that are automatically integrated into those of their member’s Snowflakes. Tasks and processes then ride on this structural foundation. Tasks also have an authority structure that is integrated into the system and Snowflake’s scheduling engine oversees the coordination of task performance.
Snowflake is a smart system that manages this overall authority, visibility and coordination structure for the users. The result is an extremely intuitive implementation and user experience. Snowflake enables tremendous flexibility while maintaining proper controls and automatically providing appropriate notifications.
PROBLEM
“Organizations” pursuing cost reductions and productivity increases continue to become more fluid and decentralized with multiple lines of authority and head counts as low as possible. The structure of these organizations is complex, changing and can include third parties as well as long-standing and ad-hoc teams, projects and processes.
The result of this trend is a lack of coordination, visibility and control that leads to reduced organizational performance, wasted time and money, lost revenue, burnout and turnover. This problem is recognized, existing, strong and growing globally.
An Organizational Management breakthrough that can pull organizations back together and enable new levels of efficiency and productivity is needed.
BENEFITS
Snowflake benefits both individuals and organizations. It helps manage each user’s activities and provides them with a concise custom real-time window into their organization. It acts as their agent by automatically performing time consuming functions, watching their back and allowing them to know “what’s going on” at all times.
Snowflake changes an organization (including 3rd parties) from an unconnected group of people and tasks to a real-time integrated and optimized whole, ensuring maximum resource utilization and optimum performance of the “machine”. Snowflake acts as a force multiplier and eliminates the huge and costly “gray areas” of uncertainty that exist in organizations.
