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:
“... in America ... children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“The steps toward the emancipation of women are first intellectual, then industrial, lastly legal and political. Great strides in the first two of these stages already have been made of millions of women who do not yet perceive that it is surely carrying them towards the last.”
—Ellen Battelle Dietrick, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 13, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
“All history attests that man has subjected woman to his will, used her as a means to promote his selfish gratification, to minister to his sensual pleasures, to be instrumental in promoting his comfort; but never has he desired to elevate her to that rank she was created to fill. He has done all he could to debase and enslave her mind; and now he looks triumphantly on the ruin he has wrought, and say, the being he has thus deeply injured is his inferior.”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
