Making workplaces safer and more productive

Mohammad Khasawneh knows from personal experience that visits to a hospital emergency room can turn into marathon waits. His experiences have inspired him to find ways to shorten wait times in the ER.

We're all about people, equipment and materials — and how they work in industry and everyday life.

Some people like to take machines apart to learn how they work. The struggle can be how to put them back together working better than they did before.

That's what we do, but we look at much more than machine parts. We study complex systems in industry and manufacturing settings, healthcare environments and society in general. We look at intelligent systems, supply chain management and human factors. Whether it's statistical modeling or decision making, modeling or fuzzy logic ... we've got it covered.

We make systems, things and people work smarter and better.
