The computing world of today offers unprecedented opportunity for the development of new business frameworks that are capable of directly connecting producers with potential consumers, that are capable of automatically accessing information on any product or potential service in the world, and of delivering that product or service to one's doorstep in the shortest possible time.

The main aim has been to optimize the informational potential of the Internet and the digital information revolution to provide a broad range of products to a wide and diverse customer base. Virtually anything in the world may be made available anywhere on demand through a single portal system. Emerging e-commerce is a growing, multi-faceted industry in itself, and it is rapidly undoing many old-fashioned approaches in business management and operation. It is a global, information-based middle-man economy par excellence, allowing a world of producers and providers of all kinds of goods and services to connect with and transact with a world that is increasingly hooked on the values of consumption.

Lewis Business Net brings a range of web-based, integrated business services to the Lewis Works framework. Every program and project area in this framework has business product dimensions and interests to be fulfilled, and collectively these diverse business-related interests are brought together in this single forum. At the same time, business development is a basic cornerstone of this framework and is pursued as an end in itself beyond just being a means and a spinoff of other areas of involvement in the framework. In each area and undertaking therefore we seek to be able to provide associated products in terms of related goods and services to a wider range of customers. We seek furthermore to provide constructive and productive contexts in larger real world settings that facilitate and promote problem resolution and project-program development, and business development provides the primary vehicle for such facilitation.

Our aim has been to provide as comprehensive a range of product services as conveniently possible, and to provide these services in a fully modular and customizable manner as per individual customer accounts, as the basis of support for intiatives in alternative systems development and non-profit human development programs.

We will be opening links and advertisements to our services and products on this page in the near future. It is not to our best interests to dwell exclusively or primarily upon the formal aspects of alternative business development, but rather to strive to provide clear examples of such development that can be directly marketed and transacted.

Systems-based Consulting, Trouble Shooting and Strategic Planning: We have developed advanced frameworks for systems based design that are comprehensive and that are far-reaching in terms of providing developmental possibilities. It has been our intention and effort to deliberate expand our range and depth of expertise in a broad range of areas that are complementary to these frameworks, and to provide expert knowledge system framework that serve as heuristic problem solving methodologies in lieu of human solutions.

Modeling & Heuristic Project Design: We are in the process of developing facilities for scale modeling that allows us to rapidly develop new design projects and to experiment with a range of alternative design configurations for any given problem set.

Research Design Development: We have undertaken the design development of a spectrum of projects based upon natural systems theory and metasystems methodology, and hope to soon offer a range of services relating to these areas of research and alternative design development.

Alternative Applied Systems Development: Our main interest continues to be the undertaking of central projects aiming strategically at critical facets of alternative systems in the areas of energy, life-systems and human organization and development. There are potentially many business-related spin-offs for this main line of interest though in this stage most of these spin-offs are like candles on a birthday cake.

Human Development Services: We seek to provide constructive frameworks for human development, broadly defined, including special areas of education, rehabilitation and facilitation, as well as aid, assistance and intervention programs. Our human development frameworks especially combine profit and non-profit programs to reach a variety of goals defined by human development.

These areas are necessarily defined in a broad and non-specific manner. This is deemed necessarily in order to maintain optimal flexibility and general adaptability of the framework in terms of future potential development.
