I don't understand yet the pain being adressed. If today it can be solved with pen and paper or Word, it looks to me that realtime sync or data visualization were not a must (disasters seem to be avoided today just as well). Nice to have, without doubt, but not a must. So your software makes it a nice experience for everybody involved, right?
Yes, it's been accomplished with paper in the past, but at great expense as many of the teams of the past were large. Take for example any control room of the 1960s, which had 40-60 people in it. Today's teams are scattered (and working from home much of the time), and much smaller (think less than 5) and must be able to accomplish the same tasks as those larger teams of the 1960s. Our software enables the teams to be smaller, more agile, and communicate better from anywhere in the world.
There's a ton of time wasted in miscommunications and lost paper records or illegible handwriting on test logs. And there have been many disasters and lives lost in the past, so anything that can be done to avoid that is worth seriously considering. Plus we make it a nicer experience and way faster.
Very true, papers are so time consuming and risky... eh. Otherwise maybe we are not thinking about the same events, so can you please detail some many disasters and lives lost? The only ones coming to mind are the space shuttles...
