Getting started with the Z-Factory
The Dr. Chgman team is due to open the Z-Files on bizarre ChangeMan ZMF matters which, according to many specialists in the Software Change Management area, are still unsolved or even insoluble.
A Z-File begins with a Z-Issue (a teaser), which typically presents some mysterious topic that sparks the plot and tells the audience what Dr.Chgman has been investigating. The next sequence discovers the Z-Clue, the solution for the puzzling issue, recommended by Dr.Chgman. Finally, the last act let you download the Z-File as a ready-made solution.
The whole event is divided into these acts:
- Register for free and become a member.
- As a member you will have access to the description (problem statement) of the puzzling issue, the Z-Issue.
- Earn Z-Rewards (rewards implemented via so called "points") by using and/or contributing to the Dr.Chgman.com website.
- Become a subscriber of selected subscription types, such as a Z-Clues subscription, for which you may consider using your Z-Rewards to get discounts.
- As a Z-Clues subscriber you will have access to Dr. Chgman's recommended solution for the Z-Issue.
- Optionally build the solution as described in the Z-Clue yourself.
- Optionally upgrade your Z-Clues subscription to a Z-Files subscription.
- As a Z-Files subscriber you will be able to download, implement and use the solution developed by Dr. Chgman.
- Optionally order Z-Support for the Z-Files solution from Dr.Chgman.
- Optionally contribute to further enhancing the functionality of the Z-Files, via the Z-Bounties.
The scenario described above will get you started with the Z-Factory concept. But don't forget there is so much more to discover with Dr.Chgman.com, such as:
- All sorts of information and in depth documentation about ChangeMan ZMF, located within the Z-Wiki.
- On demand consultancy services for ChangeMan ZMF, available via the Z-Consults.
- ChangeMan ZMF training offered in the format of eLearning, via the Z-University.
