Client Background
How Did Logic Solutions Help?
Ford needed a way to share helpful knowledge among employees. That was implemented in the Ford Learning Center. For example, answers to common issues, such as what happens when dirt mixes with vehicle paint? Logic built an internal knowledge-based system for employees to swap information and help each other with recurrent problems. Now the knowledge was captured and could be shared across the company digitally.
Externally, one of the sites Logic created for Ford is the Ford Driving Skills platform, which aims to teach new drivers and their parents the necessary skills for safe driving. Logic also helped incorporate a sweepstakes element tied directly to collecting user information.
Logic’s collaborative method of working with clients incubated with Ford, and is now known as the Logic Development Center (LDC). “Since day one, Logic has always had folks staffed at Ford,” said Matt Sarkesian, Chief Technology Officer, Logic Solutions. “The relationship has had the flexibility to allow our developers to plug right into Ford’s needs and deliver direct solutions.” The LDC model of supporting and augmenting a client’s IT departments, not replacing them, continues to successfully serve Logic’s numerous clients today. And it all began with Ford.
Project Overview
Logic helped build many of Ford’s websites, web application features and functionality, by working collaboratively to build project specifications.
Two major projects include implementing the Ford Learning Center, an internal tool for employees, and the Ford Driving Skills site, an external resource for new drivers and their parents.
