Systems Thinking, both our parent company and the movement in general, is all about people and the way they congregate, communicate and collaborate. As more companies deploy active measurements to capture, slice, dice and repurpose the intellectual capital within their payrolls, our role here at Rock Eel Café, within the systems thinking movement, is leading the mindshare to the “real economy,” the small business under 250 staff, by keeping the focus on the person and their intrinsic value, not on the value of their relationships or their LTV (lifetime customer value) to this or that firm.

I'm technical, I want charts, graphs & heavy detail on process.	I'm non-technical, I want to know how this will help me or my company.	I'm in business, I want to know how this will make more money for me or my company.

Just like DNA builds up from the simplicity of only four base pairs to “systems of systems” comprising staggering complexity, the Systemkey™ analysis model handles massive amounts of data (including discontinuous sets) seamlessly because it combines rigorous syntax (rules of combining) with an unlimited grammar, giving a recursive (nested, repeating) structure that can data mine as deeply as needed for the situation at hand. This process has been praised by industry leaders from defense engineering to healthcare because Systemkey™ allows back-of-the-envelope calculations and complex, documented, innovation risk mitigation studies to use the same consistently scalable framework."

Doug Older, CEO, Techlogic, Inc. (Eden Prairie, MN), remarks “your modeling should be of benefit to all medical companies, including contract manufacturers,” while Jim Accuntius (multiple patent holder in biotech) finds Systemkey™ to be “intuitive” with an “excellent methodology and documentation trail.” Review our capabilities.
