What’s the DopplERP plan?

Since I decided years ago (around 2003) that I needed to be active to improve my knowledge on Operations Research I’ve tried to look at the real life as an inspiration; that’s how in 2005 ‘FM Waves’ was born, as a notepad for my thoughts.

Then, it’s when I took my courses on Operations Management, that came to add up to the experience I was gaining acting as the General Manager of a small UK SME. Around those years my thoughts about OR, operations management, and real life started boiling on my head. OR had loads to give back to society and enterprise, but real life doesn’t speak maths, statistics, algorithms, systems, or computing; OR needed to be applied in the dark…

DopplERP is my answer, an ERP that will run OR-based engines that will operate on the backend and will interact with the users by means of wizards and tooltips in order to give the best answers possible to every business situation (even if we talk second best chances, here). Handicap?, make it competitively enough so any SME can access the technology, and easy enough to operate so later on could be adapted to run your home as a company (but this last idea is for 2020 Strategic Plan).

 

I hope I’ve been clear enough! I’m always bad with elevator speeches.
