Set Forward LLC Announces
Release 2.5 of Matrix Manager Manager® featuring
knowledge management, workload balancing, and robust security.
CALIFON, NEW JERSEY, September 15th, 2006 - Set
Forward LLC announces the release of Matrix Manager
2.5 featuring knowledge management, workload balancing,
and robust security. Still centered on the principles
of Commitment Based Management, task communications
are negotiated between employees through a state
machine, stored in central database server, and
made visible on demand to all upward inline managers.
Matrix Manager 2.5 is the premiere enterprise solution
to review, reward and align work so that goals may
be achieved on schedule.
Matrix Manager 2.5 empowers an organization
to consciously make intelligent decisions based
on its self-understanding. Managers can locate the
best employee to perform a task or lead a project
based on a corporate wide skill search. Once the
person is found, the manager can assess their current
workload to determine available bandwidth. Executives
can use Matrix Manager 2.5 to optimize organizational
structure based on current inter-department task
interactions.
Maximization of the workforce requires the identification
of imbalanced workloads so that resources can be
shifted to meet work demands. Matrix Managers 2.5
enables managers to rebalance work between subordinates
with a few mouse clicks.
In addition to extending the functionality of Matrix
Manager, release 2.5 also enhances the security
of the information. Corporate intellectual property,
especially strategic plans and implementation, must
be protected by robust security schemes.
Matrix Manager 2.5 uses Microsoft's .NET user and
application based security provisions in addition
to Windows Authentication to prevent unauthorized access to data. This mechanism is highly
secure and 100% Windows compliant.

national team of authorized distribution agents.

Set Forward LLC announces the release of Matrix Manager® 1.0, the world's first
Commitment Based Management? application.
CALIFON, NEW JERSEY, February 1st,
2004 - Set Forward LLC announces the
release of Matrix Manager 1.0, the
world's first Commitment Based Management
TM application. Commitment Based Management
is an innovative corporate management
theory in which all task based communications
are negotiated between employees through
a state machine, saved to a central
database server, and made visible
on demand to all upward inline managers.
In three mouse clicks or less, executives
can tap into task and project status
at any level in their reporting hierarchy.
With real-time status at their fingertips,
executives can now review, reward,
and align work so that goals can be
achieved on schedule
Vision Translation
Executive management drives success
through strategy and goals. Difficulty
arises as corporate vision breaks
into tasks that propagate and cascade
down and across the reporting hierarchy.
Today's executives must suffice with
periodic updates that are filtered
and distorted as information is slowly
communicated up and across the hierarchy.
Matrix Manager introduces an
revolutionary means of managing objectives
called Vision Translation. As
employees transact tasks between each
other, they can link the task to an
ongoing strategic objective. As a
result, management can see the collated
set of tasks that propagate and cascade
down the reporting hierarchy as strategic
vision is issued by senior management
and is fulfilled by the ranks. This
all-encompassing view is called Vision
TranslationÔ. Executives can
watch their vision unfold before their
eyes, enabling them to recognize everyone's
contribution, identify and clear road
blocks as they occur, and align work
to stay coordinated with dynamic market
trends
Enabling Matrix Organizations
For over a decade companies have shrunk
and flattened their organization in
order to increase efficiency. These
new organizations require employees
to perform work for teams inside and
outside of their reporting chain.
Unfortunately, employees are motivated
by recognition, promotion and compensation
which come almost exclusively from
direct management. Performing work
for coworkers outside of their reporting
hierarchy is often seen as a favor
because the work may not be visible
or considered important by their manager.
At times, work that is critical to
organizational success is hindered
by this dynamic. Matrix Manager
solves this problem because the managers
of the originator and recipient of
a task have visibility of the work
transaction. In fact, all upward,
inline managers of the task originator
and recipient can view the task on
demand. Therefore the recipient of
a task request knows that he/she will
receive credit for the work regardless
of the department that requested it.
Employee performance appraisals can
reflect both matrix and intra department
work. Matrix Manager closes
the motivational disconnect and enables
cross department work that is critical
to reach corporate objectives
Benefits Drive Dual Motivation
Executives are drawn to Matrix Manager
because of the all-inclusive view
of the corporate enterprise in action;
employees are drawn to Matrix Manager
to receive recognition and visibility
of their ideas and hard work. By offering
benefits to employees at all levels
of the organization, Matrix Manager
wins the acceptance of users, which
is critical for enterprise wide adoption.
