Abstract: A system model of a real-world system includes a multi-level hierarchy of Capabilities, where each Capability includes a Verb specifying an action and an Object acted on by the Verb. The system model also contains one or more multi-level Performer hierarchies, where each Performer hierarchy includes a plurality of Performers each having an associated lifecycle and at least one associated Capability provided or required by the Performer. In addition, a multi-level Location hierarchy associates one of a plurality of Locations with each Performer. A plurality of Capability Instances define requirement and provision of Capabilities by Performers in the one or more multi-level Performer hierarchies. In response to a query specifying a Location and a time, a view of the system model for the specified Location and time is output.

Abstract: The present invention features multiple ideas that enable building and maintaining process scorecard models for a large number of process variations; process reference scorecard models and process/IT scorecard delta models. Specifically, the present invention provides a solution for managing a process and IT interlock. Under this solution a tabular model of a process having process steps along a first axis and process variations along a second axis, with cells at the intersections of the axes is constructed. Process step details including IT details for a base process are populated into the cells of a first row of the second axis. Delta details (to-be base cases) of the process steps for each of the process variations are populated into additional rows of the second axis. Project management status indicators are enabled for each cell to denote statuses of the process steps in each cell.
