APTIMA APPROACH

Today's organizations are sociotechnical systems — complex mixtures of organizational structures and workflow processes, networks of computers and other technologies, and diverse human competencies. Maximizing the performance of such organizations requires a systems approach. Aptima’s innovative products and services improve the performance of modern organizational systems by:

Engineering the structure and processes of an organization to make effective use of new technology
Designing automated technology that is both useful and usable
Employing advanced technology to train complex skills

Aptima’s scientific understanding of human behavior and performance provides the foundation for all of our solutions. We combine social science theory with expert knowledge elicitation and dynamic computational models to create actionable understanding and solid, scientifically-based recommendations.

We apply rigorous quantitative performance assessments to evaluate our designs and technologies. Because we understand human performance, we know how to define meaningful measures for evaluation. This assessment, in turn, increases our understanding and improves our designs.

Aptima Approach

Aptima’s understanding of human and organizational behavior, combined with our computational modeling technology, also provides a unique capability to the counter-terrorism and intelligence communities in predicting and countering adversary activities.
