Business Key Definitions These are the definitions Walt Medical® P•S•S uses with our Clients. Where a dictionary, Wikipedia, or an industry source defines a term differently, we do not use that definition; we use the definition on this page, and in our Agreements. Competencies and Skills & Training Matrices Key Business Terms Competencies and Skills & Training Matrices Walt Medical® P•S•S assures our Clients we provide the highest-caliber talent available to meet our Clients’ Engagement needs. We well vet our Specialist Resources according to the criteria listed below for Expert, Advanced or Competent (“E•A•C”) skill and experience level, by consensus review of credentials by our Senior Management Staff. We offer no resources that are rated less than Competent in the work they perform — and we expect the same of our Clients — since it’s in no one’s business interest for either party to perform work in such manner. We also maintain for each Specialist their Professional Training Matrix — such is useful generally, and required for Client ISO Certifications, where 3rd parties like our firm aid in any aspect of Product Realization. Each level requires one or more from Group 1 — and one or more from Group 2 may offset fewer years of experience. “ ” Group 1 — Education & Experience Directly related , documented on CV/Resume Group 2 — Noteworthy Accomplishments A publication is a peer-reviewed or trade journal, or a book. A patent is one issued in the US, EU, Canada, Japan or Australia. A certificate is one from an accredited 3rd party, such as BSI Lead Auditor; its years count directly related work, whether or not the work required the certificate.
