Case Study: CommunicationsComcast – Business Challenge: Directional Uncertainty
Challenges Solution
• To determine serviceability Comcast must
access data from GIS systems, Oracle, legacy
plant systems, Autodesk, and an outsourced
billing package (ASP).
• Dynamic data in single view: Cordys Business
Operations Platform provides all of this data
dynamically in real time to the Customer Service
Representatives.
• To monitor network devices, modems amplifiers
etc, there are several technologies installed, but
no single view.
• Robust and reliable: Cordys provides a system that
interrogates all devices on their 22,000 mile network
every twenty minutes and the data is processed and
Plant personnel are automatically notified.
• Plant structure changes daily. • Scalable and flexible: Cordys dynamically notes and
reports all incremental changes to Plant systems
automatically.

Case Study: Financial ServicesNew York Stock Exchange – Business Challenge: Compliance
Hurdles Solution
• Existing Compliance Application is a non-scalable and hard
to maintain client-server application
• Reusable, scalable, process-driven and rules based
• New application with a process and rules based 5-tier
architecture
• Longer Time-to-change = Higher non-compliance risk • Flexible and configurable rules-based solution gives
control to business user to handle the changes
• High volume, complexity of trading process and changing
market needs increases surveillance challenges.
• Dynamic and reliable platform bridges between IT and
business
Challenges:• Insider trading, manipulative trading, ―window dressing‖ to improve performance figures and sales practices of registered
representatives, pose threats to individual investors.
• Sophisticated surveillance needed the entire day and over a period of days at the close, with the ability to cull trades to
detect recurring patterns. (Such as the number of trades in a three-month period, profit or loss in the account for the same
period, turnover of securities, and commissions charged to the account for the year.)
