Adaptable Platform
Posted Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009, 6:39 am.Importantly, with change being a constant in the research arena, Ideate was built from the ground up with thoughtful consideration of the Information Architecture challenges. As a result, the Service Oriented Framework provides for unprecedented governance and change management, and includes an elegant data repository.
Ideate maintains copies of all versions of a process to ensure a complete audit history and supports process-level roll-back. Administrative modifications to a research process can be submitted through an internal review before any changes are implemented. Data captured in older versions of a process remains available for reporting and can be optionally viewed in their original page layouts.
“The most powerful natural species are those that adapt to environmental change
without losing their fundamental identity which gives them their competitive advantage.”
—Charles Darwin, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, 1859
