Bio of Paul A. Tedesco
43 years of project management and the application of AI to Business:
Internationally renowned speaker and practitioner of project management and Artificial Intelligence for use within Business. Invented a project management process that greatly extends "Phased Project Planning" (the project management process used by NASA to manage the first space shots). Invented a special form of Artificial Intelligence to control systems, to reduce system costs through better application technology, and to be able to implement systems capable of simplifying and making business decisions. This basic form of AI has provided business systems capable of performing business tasks that are normally difficult for systems to provide and supporting both customer and business user with technically competitive advantages. When the concepts are applied to
Customer Relations Management it advances and simplifies knowledge management and provides the information needed to assist businesses with their customer relations. The systems involved fit nicely within the existing customer relations management processes and systems.
The artificial intelligence processes help companies formulate knowledge and helps automate decision making by providing management with complete and immediate information and recommended decisions.
Projects and industries include:
|
Telecommunications |
- 13-person project to automate the design of floor plans – a task not accomplished before this project.
- Taught the project management process and used Artificial Intelligence to dynamically control legacy system processes.
