Visualizing The Organization As A System 

Organization System Visualization Platform
The Organization can be visualized as a system with respect to interactions with its environments, roles and responsibilities of actors, management structure, organization functions, organizational goals hierarchy, strategic goals and objectives, and strategic initiatives outcomes and action goals models. Visualization Platform provides a set of methods encapsulated by the following visualization components: Enterprise Explorer Visualizer, Operations Systems Simulation Visualizer, and Strategic Initiatives Simulation Visualizer..

Enterprise Explorer Visualization
The Enterprise Explorer tool supports a set of visualization methods that enable users to visualize the structures (form), functions, and behavior of business organizations or enterprises in pursuit of their visions and mission. Users can interactively visually explore the virtual organization in order to improve their shared understanding of intended goals and strategies as well as expected behavior of the organization. The explorer also supports visualization of organization viewpoint models including organization function and position structures, social systems network view, open systems view, operations system configuration view, enabling environments view including stakeholders, customers, regulators, suppliers, competitors, community, etc.

​

The Enterprise Explorer Visualization methods provide systematic visualization of the organization as a system, or social system such as business organization, companies, enterprises, and governmental agencies/entities. It provides the capacity to visualize and interactively explore the organization system's structures or form. ERMSIM Simulation Visualization methods provide the capacity to visualize and explore the changes in organization capacity development caused by pursuing a given strategic intent, set of strategic options, and strategic choices; as well as the potential strategic risks and rewards. EPCAD Simulation Visualization methods provide systematic visualization of operations performance of the organization as system in creating and delivering value to customers. It supports interactive visualization enabling users to explore the system throughput for a given configuration of resources and actors, as well as utilization and load of those resources.

 Enterprise Explorer Visualization Method
Enterprise Explorer ™is the registered trade-marked name for the organization as system interactive visualization methods offered by Interactive Design Labs. The visualization methods provide an interactive visualization environment that enables users to explore and examine the architecture of a business organization including its form and functions, and the accountability and responsibility of the organizational social systems, and the organization's value proposition.The visualization methods allow users to explore and examine the manifestation of the current organizational strategy and strategy alignment to inform execution decisions.  Users can explore and examine an organization's functional structure, reporting structures within each functional areas and departments/teams, organizational internal and "transactional" environments, value propositions (i.e., products and services) as well as organizational direction in terms of its goals and objectives.

This tool supports a visualization of the organization/enterprise as a system. It enables users to interactively visualize the organization by exploring and examining the organization's viewpoint models including hierarchical system decomposition view, social systems network view and organizational structures (form) view, value propositions view, environments view including stakeholders, customers, regulators, suppliers, competitors, community, etc.

EPCAD Organization Production and Service Delivery Systems Visualization Methods
The EPCAD Organization Production and Service Delivery Visualization Methods are based on visualization of Process Analytics Simulation Output Visualization Methods. The visualization methods enable interactive visualization of the results/outputs of an organization's service operations and production systems simulation to determine the effective capacity for specified set of products/services to satisfy customer demand, the capacity utilization in terms of process capacity utilization/load as well as resource utilization and loads.

Users can interact with the visualization to explore and examine the effective throughput of products, parts, and services that define effective capacity for a given product mix/service mix; users can explore and examine the utilization and load levels of labor and equipment resources as well as storage capacity, and process capacity. The simulation output analytics visualization charts include:
  1. Production or operations output throughput chart
  2. Resource utilization and load factors charts - (Labor utilization efficiency and load factors charts, Equipment utilization efficiency and load factors charts, WIP Inventory Store utilization and load factors charts).
  3. WIP Inventory Levels Control Policy charts 
  4. Process capacity utilization and idle charts
  5. Product/Service delivery performance chart

The visualization improves users' insight and understanding of the dynamic behavior of the organization in producing value and potential bottlenecks that constrain effective capacity. This visualization is especially useful when you need to address the "unknowns" in your business and make informed decisions on the impact of changes in demand, quality and safety standards policies, and workforce staffing levels.

ERMSIM Business Organization System Evolution Visualization Methods
ERMSIM Organizational System Evolution Visualization Methods provide interactive visualization techniques to visualize strategies in terms of evolutionary changes in organizational capacity development, and outputs and outcomes of successful strategy development and execution. The visualization products include:
  1. Organization's Current State/Situation Visualization
  2. Organization's Target Future State/Situation Visualization.
  3. Organization's Strategic Gap Visualization - [Logical Conception of Gap, Implementation Gap, and Capacity Development Response]
  4. Organization's Performance Visualization
  5. Organization Environmental Factors Assumptions Visualization
  6. Organization's Strategic and Operations Performance Visualization - [Balanced  Scorecard Dashboard]
  7. Cause-Effects Chains, and End State Visualization
  8. Strategic Risk Visualization

The End State and Effects chart visualization expresses the predicted/forecasted effects of a strategy/strategic option on influencing the behavior of actors in the environments such as stakeholders, and customers, suppliers, and competitors/adversaries. The visualization also includes the predictive analysis of the risks associated with the likelihood of not achieving the desired outcomes and effects from the strategy execution.
