Knowledge Based Decisions

Knowledge Based Decisions

Using Data for Knowledge Based Decisions

There is much talk about data based decision making, but I think that misses the point. We make decisions based on knowledge. Data needs to be translated into that knowledge, and yet not all knowledge can be measured. This has been my training philosophy for a number of years now and has been quite effective.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more, please leave a comment below.

About Perry Parendo

Perry's Solutions, Inc. was founded to help companies achieve product and process breakthroughs using Design of Experiments (DOE). Research of industry training programs shows they do not address the required applications for these tools, resulting in their training investment falling short of needed and wanted improvement. The company leverages their extensive DOE experience in new product development and manufacturing operations to bring you an innovative yet effective methodology for all developers desiring a quantum-leap improvement in product or process effectiveness.
