History
ProFIT-MAP was created by Anil Menawat. Its foundation is based on systems theory, which is an integrated approach for studying complex, dynamic, and interdependent systems. It also had roots in parametric costing which dates back to World War II where government planners needed a better way to forecast the cost of manufacturing aircraft.
The name ProFIT-MAP is derived from two elements. “ProFIT” comes from “process and finance integration technology.” This refers to the methodology’s integrated multi-perspective focus on business execution. “MAP” refers to the methodology’s ability to create a highly detailed roadmap for improving the business.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“We aspire to be something more than stupid and timid chattels, pretending to read history and our Bibles, but desecrating every house and every day we breathe in.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Classes struggle, some classes triumph, others are eliminated. Such is history; such is the history of civilization for thousands of years.”
—Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
“What is most interesting and valuable in it, however, is not the materials for the history of Pontiac, or Braddock, or the Northwest, which it furnishes; not the annals of the country, but the natural facts, or perennials, which are ever without date. When out of history the truth shall be extracted, it will have shed its dates like withered leaves.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
