From customer information and team knowledge to resources and execution, we are extending Druumen around the business model. Here are six directions and where each stands today.
Status reviewed
Directions may change as research and real use inform the work. Status labels do not imply full availability or a promised release date.
01
In development
Codespace
Bring knowledge from different teams into view.
Connect engineering, design, data and business analysis so strategic decisions can draw on what each department knows.
Next focus
Connect team material and work records to business questions while keeping their sources and specialist context.
Where it stands
Reading team knowledge and work records is in development. Connections across departments are still being tested.
02
Planned
iCRM
Bring customer feedback back to the model.
Why do customers choose you, why do they leave, and which needs keep returning? iCRM is intended to bring that information into product and business decisions.
Next focus
Organize customer relationships and needs to test customer segments and value propositions.
Where it stands
In planning. A complete iCRM product is not yet publicly available.
03
Planned
iERP
Keep business plans in touch with operations.
Connect the revenue, costs, resources and activities in your model with feedback from day-to-day operations.
Next focus
Help teams spot gaps between plans and execution, then revisit assumptions and resource choices.
Where it stands
In planning. The scope and connections to operational systems still need validation.
04
Exploring
Market simulation
Try it in a model first.
Use agent-based modeling to describe market participants and their interactions, then compare what could happen under different assumptions.
Next focus
Explore how pricing, customer behavior and competition could affect a business model.
Where it stands
In research. Simulations help explore assumptions and scenarios; they are not predictions of real markets.
05
In development
Vitrine
Turn selected work into something others can read.
Choose material from project knowledge, business models and results for a specific audience.
Next focus
Keep working material separate from published versions, with control over who can read them.
Where it stands
Publishing for restricted audiences is being tested internally. Public publishing is still planned.
06
Foundations implemented
Compute & execution
Give tasks a place to run.
Connect computing resources to agent tasks so analysis and work steps can run in an authorized environment.
Next focus
Improve node connections, resource configuration and visibility into task execution.
Where it stands
Node and model configuration have initial implementations. Broader execution capabilities are still being developed and tested.
What should we solve first?
Bring a business situation to the community. A concrete process, obstacle or current way of working helps us understand what matters.
