20110176898 | SHIPPING CONTAINER LIFTING AND MANEUVERING DOLLY - A dolly is particularly adapted to lift, support and maneuver a 20-foot shipping container. A shipping container support frame also supports a shipping container capture assembly. The capture assembly includes a pair of parallel, opposing shipping container capture slides. A pair of hydraulic jacks is attached to each capture slide. The jacks move shipping container engagements pins vertically. The slides move the shipping container laterally and the jacks move it vertically to pick it up and allow the support frame to move under the container. The support frame has steerable wheels for movement. Counterweights or auxiliary container stabilizers are unnecessary. | 07-21-2011 |

20080221940 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING THE COMPONENT BUSINESS MODEL TO ANALYZE BUSINESS VALUE DRIVERS - The method and system uses the component business model as a framework for locating business activities. Business value drivers are identified, related in an influence model, and structured into a prioritized driver tree. The driver tree is used to determine the relative contributions of leaf drivers to the overall value of the business. Business activities contributing to the leaf drivers are then identified, and the relative contributions of the leaf drivers are allocated to the business activities and then rolled up to the components for display as a heat map overlay on a component map. | 09-11-2008 |
