Effective Automated Systems Engineering (EASE)
Effective Automated Systems Engineering (EASE) is an
Ohio company first registered on 11/14/89. Mr. Conner is a graduate Aeronautical Engineer (BS/MS Purdue
University). and retired from the US Air Force in 1983 as a Major. He
has developed extensive engineering software in addition to business and
business graphics applications. Engineering applications have included
several warfare simulations and wind tunnel data analysis programs. He
has developed cost projection and analysis systems , and a shop floor
work flow tracking system. He has designed and supported the development
of several database applications supporting the USAF. He was in charge
of schedule and cost management for several Air Force acquisition
programs and developed schedule and cost review processes. These
processes were adopted by other programs across the Department of
Defense. In 1984, he
developed the C-NETT Project Management System an MS DOS application. As
with EASE PMS, it was centered around Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
tasks. C-NETT included man hour and material resource tracking. It
performed resource leveling, peak workload identification and analysis,
and earned value following the DoD Cost/Schedule Control System Criteria
(C/SCSC) method. He marketed C-NETT through 1995. In 1989, he developed
the EASE Process Analysis System (EASE PAS) with a partner. EASE PAS
(another MS DOS application) was a highly graphical general process
simulation system based on enhanced Petri Nets. Also in 1989, he and his
partner developed Graham Business Process Charting, another highly
graphical MS DOS application, for the Ben Graham Corporation. In 1996,
he rewrote the Graham software as an MS Windows application. He
continues to maintain and enhance this application for the Ben Graham
Corporation. (Go to http://worksimp.com for information on this software
and Graham Business Process Charting methodology.)
