Launch of Adaptive, Inc. consolidates executive
consulting services with best of breed enabling technology
Business Analysis International (BAI ) and Interregnum
PLC announced today that they have joined forces to create Adaptive,
Inc. Interregnum is a leading UK IT investment and advisory firm specializing
in supporting the technology sector and the owner of the rights to
the “a3 enterprise architecture™” solution and “Adaptive
Foundation™” technology. BAI is a premier provider of
executive consulting services and enabling toolkits aimed at helping
organizations manage complex change initiatives.
“We are very excited to be marrying the thought
leadership and business transformation consulting strengths from BAI
with the state of the art enterprise repository tools and installed
base from Interregnum’s Adaptive technologies” said Roger
Burlton, CEO of Adaptive Inc. “Adaptive, Inc. will build on
the base already developed by the two companies to provide solution-oriented
business transformation offerings that encompass methods, tools and
implementation services. Adaptive, and its partners, will enable organizations
in transition to chart a well-informed course of change, aligning
critical enterprise assets with strategic direction and performance
expectations.”
The Adaptive technology has been used by some of the
world’s largest organizations to build and manage knowledge
repositories. The Adaptive Foundation™ provides a single, automated
environment for gathering, storing, maintaining, retrieving, sharing
and visualizing knowledge. Its fundamental object-oriented design
and standards-based openness ensures nimbleness. Its web-based accessibility
ensures global utility for knowledge-sharing and better decision-making.
With compliance to industry standards, the Adaptive repository can
store input from most front-end modeling tools as well as transfer
output to back-end workflow tools, thus making complete enterprise
integration a reality.
The enhanced offering being developed will provide the
knowledge storage and access mechanism to allow an enterprise to keep
track and cross reference all of its assets and capabilities. The
Adaptive Reference Model is the foundation that supports all of the
new Adaptive offerings. Adaptive, Inc. will package its methods, technology
and services to create offerings that provide organizations with the
capability to:
- Rationalize programs and projects by optimizing and aligning enterprise
resources with strategic priorities
- Implement effective enterprise-wide performance scorecard management
- Make well informed Merger & Acquisition decisions (Pre and
Post)
- Accurately assess and manage operational risk

to be used as the foundation for aligned, synchronized and coordinated
business transformation
- Optimize enterprise software portfolios by reducing application

decision making
In addition, Adaptive, Inc. will aggressively pursue
partnerships with Value Added Resellers and Distributors, to use the

knowledge management, metadata management and business transformation
solutions.
“Many large, complex organizations have a vision
to become “real-time enterprises”. We will help them achieve
this vision by providing solutions that allow them to understand and
align their critical enterprise assets and capabilities, thus reducing
the time, cost and risk of adapting to continuous market change”,
