Simulation software a cure for hospital's requirements
validation ills |

When your users are physicians and nurses, they don't have time to sit in meetings explaining what they want out of an application or to wade through documents validating requirements. Patient care is their number one priority.
To get over that obstacle, the development team at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center relies on a simulation tool. Using iRise's visualization tool, physicians and nurses can see what the application will look like based on requirements given and quickly change or validate those requirements.
“With the iRise simulations, very little interpretation is needed. What you see on the screen is what you're getting." - Sherry Preston.
Manager of EMR support and development, business analysts, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

iRise Named "A Company to Watch in 2009" |
|
|
Managing Automation Magazine: "There was a time not so long ago when manufacturers had the time and resources to implement large, big-bang IT projects, such as ERP or PLM, that promised to transform broad swaths of the enterprise. Not so much anymore. These days, many manufacturers, facing stiff global competition and the need for quick, certain benefit, are opting for incremental projects that focus on rapidly improving an important, yet specific, business process."
Given this fact, it's not a surprise that iRise was chosen by Managing Automation Magazine as one of the "ten companies to watch in 2009".
