Design a highly interactive and visual method of conveying the complex interdependencies within corporate work flows and their relationships to formal organizational structures. The package is to provide decision makers and analysts a holistic view of the functional and organizational structure while providing fine-grained details in examining specific relationships within the processes. The package must be easily adaptable to any organization and process.
The Flash- and xml-based application enables flexible adaptation to widely varying client organizations and processes. The user interface permits intuitive, fluid zooming in and out of the map while retaining context within the overall structure. Detailed information is available interactively within each node. Organic shapes were specifically chosen to contrast the nature of this visualization (based on the actual connections used in practice) to the often idealized and artificial geometry of an org chart. The system’s unique and proprietary capabilities resulted in a US Patent application.
