Case Study: Visual Lean Institute
The
Visual-Lean Institute (VLI) needed a solution to manage viewing rights for a complete set of course material among a national network of certified training companies using a unique set of material developed over 25 years. VLI needed a solution to control the use of over fifty PowerPoint® training modules, that would open and run on any computer used by certified trainers. VLI also needed a highly secure system that would completely prevent all form of replication becuase of the unique learning tools and digital images related to organizational practices in manufacturing, office, warehousing, distribution and retailing.
SoftShield™ was commisioned to provide a complete system, from PPT file encryption to online payment collection and digital license delivery system. The solution has been warmly received by partner companies and trainers alike, as a means to protect local and national markets from competitors and IP dilution. The solution provided VLI a secure basis to sell their courses and collect licensing revenue on an ongoing basis from participating partner training providers.
