Why STRATA exists · Mike Hartman
For twenty-two years,I have worked inside these ERPs.
I've sat in more of those roomsthan I can count.
Every one of themstarted the same way:
a room full of capable peopletrying to remember what the system already knew.
Nobody in the room thought that was strange.Neither did I.
Nobody in this industrywas ever paid to make the questionunnecessary.
Not the integrators.Not the consultancies.
Everyone was paid to search.The longer the search, the more it was worth.
Nobody planned it that way.It is just how the work was priced.
“Why did nobody we hiredever simply ask the ERP?”
The honest answerisn't that it couldn't be done.
Nobody was paid to do it.
So we stopped asking people about the ERP.We asked the ERP.
Every object carries its author.Every change carries a date.The answers were already there,waiting for someone to ask properly.
BridgeCore is nota service provider.
We had no reason to keep the question open.
STRATA is that question,built.
It reads and does not write.It measures and does not estimate.It reports and does not advise.
Where the evidence is missing,it says Not Measured, and why.
Two decades watching good peoplesearch for answerstheir system already held.
We built STRATAso the next person in that roomstarts with the answer.
