In 2017, Framework Solutions was acquired by Mycore, LLC.
The following is a short list of some noteworthy projects.
Framework Solutions focused on industrial health and safety training along with leadership development. It's coursework, portfolio and client base were global and widely used.
Field-Level Implementation & Enterprise Solutions
A few of our noteworthy clients.
Interactive & Rich Media Solutions
Basic & Advanced Incident Investigation
Our Incident Investigation course has been deployed across the globe. This coursework was a hybrid of online training, classroom instruction, field-level mock investigation and immersive roleplaying. Our use of a socratic learning method ensured each learner not only practiced investiation methods, but taught them to peers from their practical experience.
Driver Safety
Vehicle incidents rank among the most costly in heavy industry. So, when Barrick approached our team to help curb the number of vehicle-related incidents, LTI's and fatalities, we jumped at the opportunity. This rich online course teaches driver safety unlike traditional courses. Through the use of rich metaphor, game-style exercises, and powerful learning tools, this course became the most popular ever seen at this global organization. It was so popular among employees, executives asked for a family version they could distribute globally. That was also a hit. Click here to learn more.
In our driver safety course, the host interacts with little imps - the voices in our heads that (consciously or unconsciously) affect our decisions while driving. This was a very effective strategy for this course.
Over 700,000 students have taken our driver safety course
Deployed in over 25 countries
Translated French, German, Spanish & Bahasa Indonesian
Unique blend of instructional strategies
Course transcended cultural boundaries
Widely accepted by employees
Platform delivery:
Delivered via web - installed on either a UNIX or Windows server, SCORM compliant LMS, or other LMS platforms as well as DVD/CD ROM delivery for individual desktop training for exceedingly remote locations with limited/no internet connections.
Versions:
Two versions of our Driver Safety or Defensive Driving course were designed, facilitating either Self-paced or Instructor-facilitated modes. Self-paced was intended for individuals to navigate through the material at their own pace while the Instructor-facilitated (IFT or classroom) version was delivered to a live audience.
Drill Rig Touch-Screen Simulator
Boart Longyear asked our firm to design a touch-screen simulation of their flagship product, the Sonic Drill Rig. With the rapid success of our first model, we were then tasked to create a dual-screen simulation, which was then deployed internationally. This training/simulation provided a vital link in developing operational competency and reducing training & equipment overhead.
Incident Investigation Simulation
An immersive exercise we designed and developed allowing the learner to walk through a virtual environment and identify and classify secondary hazards that may have surfaced as a result of the initial incident. This is a totally awesome exercise. We developed this with the Unity authoring tool, a popular gaming development platform.
Compliance Training
When Bain & Company approached our consulting team, they were looking for an innovative means of delivering compliance training. After an audience analysis we landed on a fictitious news network: think The Onion meets the news, meets corporate training. With a somewhat sardonic instructional canvas, we were able to draw upon a variety of characters and scenarios to bring otherwise mundane compliance topics to life. The project was a hit.
Handheld Device Simulation
We designed a computer-based simulation of Inthinc's handheld tracking device.
Instructor-Led Leadership Training
Our consulting team was tasked to design a series of leadership development courses, Boots on the Ground 1.0 & 2.0. These beginner and advanced 2-day workshops used the Mycore method as the framework, and their core values as the topics. Closing performance and behavioral gaps was a key driver.
Our design and training methods were well received by both executive leadership and field-level employees. This broad acceptance and adoption has attributed to significant KPI improvement.
BOTG 2.0 Training Topics included:
conflict management
communication
matrix organizations
accountability
core values
operational excellence
team development
the influencer model
ethics & legal compliance
priority management
Leadership Training
As part of Barrick's leadership development program, our team was hired to produced instructional media centered around removing barriers to change. Barrick used the phrase "moose on the table" in the same way one might describe an elephant in the room. With this unique nomenclature, we produced media that was entertaining and instructional.
Instructional Methodology
Over the last 20 years, we've developed an instructional model that blends proven methodologies into one coherent framework from which to design and audit instructional content.
Concept Exploration for Client in Financial Industry
Our team was tasked to help an international bank who wanted help with a diversity campaign within their organization. We disagreed with the path the bank was heading - believing their approach would yield no persuasive power. What's more, their approach was not only too clinical, they wanted to employ technology gimmicks that would likely be perceived as disingenuous and most certainly alienate their audience.
Strapped for time, but wanting to show them another way, we quickly wrote, recorded and edited this [conversation starter] in about 3 hours to demonstrate a more intimate approach, citing the power of the human face - which is endlessly unique, expressive and interesting.
This video is rough around the edges and presents a pencil sketch concept aimed at starting a conversation to humanize the subject. We suggested the campaign not talk about diversity as an abstraction but focus on (and celebrate) diversity within their company by highlighting the quiet and often unseen heroes as well as those who are more visible. A campaign that doesn't just explore the philosophy of diversity, but the humanity behind it.
Product Orientation / Anatomical Breakdown
We produced this video help our client's potential clients understand the competitive edge their product offers.
This video also demonstrated our deep capacity for technical animation.
Envisioning Information
From incident investigation to management of change process training, our team has a reputation for envisioning information in ways that bridge knowledge gaps, foster understanding and increase retention and application.
