PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT

Billions of dollars are spent yearly on designing, building, and re-engineering sociotechnical systems . Yet often no one can answer the simple question, “Does it work?”

To answer this question, Aptima has invented a new science of performance measurement, and we have developed the technology to make it real. We apply our comprehensive understanding of people, technology, and work to produce quantitative assessments of performance. These allow organizations to know not only if their sociotechnical systems are working, but how well they are working.

Performance Assessment

Aptima has developed unique technology and processes to provide quantitative measurements of sociotechnical system performance

Combining expertise with technology. Aptima’s understanding of performance assessment is rooted in scientific theory, systematic knowledge of sociotechnical systems, and computational models of performance. We have used this understanding to develop innovative performance measurement technology that collects and displays assessment data, and makes it possible to achieve reliable, quantitative performance assessment. Our unique technology includes the following:

Our A▪Measure family of products is the first system to intelligently combine performance data from simulations, observation, and self-report using an innovative Human Performance Measurement Language.
Our automated communications analysis software (BroadCAST) is breaking new ground in assessing team performance.
Aptima’s advanced Feedback Toolkit displays a comprehensive, intuitive interactive picture of performance for maximum training effectiveness.

Aptima in action. Our technology provides repeatable quantitative performance assessment in real and virtual environments as diverse as medical first responders learning to work as a team, and fighter pilots learning complex air combat tactics.
