Operational Riskdata eXchange Association (ORX) Helps Banks Worldwide Gain Better Insight Into Operational Risk | 2009-08-06 | IBM |
| To help its member financial institutions better assess risk, the Operational Riskdata eXchange Association (ORX) needed to provide a more sophisticated statistical analysis and modeling methodology as part of its operational. ORX worked with IBM to develop the new methodology, which draws on data collected from ORX member banks around the world. ORX was founded several years ago, but due to the relatively small number of incidents in its databases, the intelligence that the association was formed to create was initially relatively basic. When it comes to creating valid statistical forecasts, a large quantity of high-quality data is essential. ORX collected loss data from its member banks for years before the database was deemed large enough to support advanced statistical analysis and modeling.

Jordan, Jones & Goulding Standardizes Project Delivery Processes and Increases Profitability | 2009-08-01 | Oracle |
| Jordan, Jones & Goulding (JJG) wanted to automate the request for information (RFI), contract management, and scheduling processes for all projects and improve communication with contractors and accelerates approval processes via clear submittal processing and tracking. The challenge was to improve system stability and productivity, while reducing system cost. JJG implemented Oracle's Primavera Contract Management to determine submittal status at any given time, ensure it has adequate resources in place to review all submittals, and respond to contractors within 30 days and enabled two people to handle more than 90% of all contractor submittals - typically 500 to 600 submittals for each project. |
