I would recommend looking into a study of a cleaning(cleanability vs surface finish) for processing equipment in the pharmaceutical industries. This has not been performed to my knowledge(I have thought about performing and writing a paper but haven't had the time), should be reasonably simple to to perform, and would open oppertunities into a growth industry.

To my knowledge, there is NOT a cited comprison. One would have to go to each plan to determine FROM EACH what they offer.. copy out each and then individuially compare them. As you know... comparison depends on many many facets

The Burley is excellent.  The main difference between the expensive and less expensive is resistance.

From what i've seen, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of difference between them, i suppose try to get value for money. Whichever provides the most for the least.

In all honesty, I think they are equal in terms of what they can/do.  They are both big players in the market and do their job well.  There is enough competition between them to keep them on their toes to provide you the best anti-virus service and definition files.  For me, I would only weigh two things - price and reputation.  If the prices are close, and I would guess they are, I would opt for Symantec's Norton AntiVirus software.  This is only because they seem to be more widely recognized, in my opinion.  How this has any affect on the overall product, I would doubt it would carry any weight.  It just makes me more comfortable going with a product that I feel has a bigger share of the market and, therefore, MIGHT have a better overall product.  Norton AV wins 51% of my vote.

Accuracy of data.  Crap in, crap out.  Your analysis is only as reliable as the data which it was built upon.  Do the work necessary up front to ensure that you will receive, retain and transpose data properly.  If you're measuring effectiveness of a program your survey methods have to be developed with an idea in mind.  What are you trying to measure, what are you hoping to learn.  Now, does your survey capture the info that will give you those answers?  \n\nThis is increasingly easier with the automation of our programs, but user error is never to be taken lightly.  \n\nGood luck!

Good luck with that one. Since clinical management is so dynamic - software packages must be tailored to fit that specific practice. I would guess you are looking for the basics (chgs and collection reports, patient volume, CPT profiles and day to day performance snapshots) in terms of clinical management - but I can honestly not think of anything for free. Our current software pkg runs around 65 K per year - but it is well worth it. From experience I can testify - you get what you pay for. Plus, a custom software pkg can improve clinical performance.

Well, if the strategic management is effective, the corporate performance is improved and profits increase. 'Strategic Management' is making sure an organisation moves in the right direction. It's a very general question, though.

there's not going to be lot of difference. Both require an extreme amount of engineering depending on each situation. SO what guy up there said also applies. The biggest contributing factors for price are going to be\n1. Existing conditions \n2. Accessibility\n3. Design

In what regards? \n\nBy measuring success in general, you are better able to assess what is working and what is not.

It goes little something like this:\n\nEfficacy - Power or capacity to produce a desired effect; effectiveness.

Hi,\n\nNever compare value by some module. The value is of your knowledge in particular module.\n\nI think, adding couple of more modules in will value more. like PM or PP\n\nThanks\nYatin
