Problem

Conventional enterprise-related software and computing processes lack flexibility and adaptability, leading to inefficiencies in managing complex enterprise functions, security, and customer relationships, resulting in risks such as attrition and loss of customers due to non-standardized workflows and inadequate personalized experiences.

Innovation Solution

An enterprise computing platform with a foundational engine that includes a workspace builder application, permissions workbench application, and persona builder application, enabling the generation and management of customizable workspaces, permissions, and access control based on roles and personas, facilitating efficient deployment and security of computerized tools tailored to specific roles or processes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional enterprise software is used, then implementation is straightforward, but flexibility and adaptability are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveflexibility and adaptabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the enterprise system into modular components including foundational engine, workspace builder application, permissions workbench application, and persona builder application. Each component operates independently but integrates through standardized interfaces, allowing flexible reconfiguration without increasing overall system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements dynamic configuration capabilities where workspaces, permissions, and personas can be modified in real-time without requiring system reconfiguration. The foundational engine dynamically adjusts to configuration changes made through the various builder applications, enabling adaptability while maintaining operational simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Productivity

If standardized workflows are implemented, then management efficiency improves, but personalized experiences are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanagement efficiencyVSAvoidpersonalized experiences
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements local quality by allowing different personas to have customized views, permissions, and workflows within the standardized enterprise platform. Each user role receives tailored functionality and data access appropriate to their specific needs while operating within the overall standardized system framework.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The foundational engine provides universal functionality that serves multiple personas and workflows simultaneously. The same core engine handles standardized enterprise processes while supporting personalized configurations through the workspace builder and persona builder applications, achieving both efficiency and personalization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Reliability

If comprehensive access control is implemented, then security improves, but ease of operation is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesecurityVSAvoidease of deployment
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The permissions workbench application enables preliminary configuration of access control policies before deployment. Administrators can pre-define permission sets, role hierarchies, and access rules that are automatically applied when personas are created, simplifying ongoing security management while maintaining comprehensive access control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements self-service capabilities where the foundational engine automatically enforces access control rules based on persona assignments. Users are automatically granted or restricted access based on their role configurations without requiring manual intervention for each access decision, maintaining security while improving ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
