Francis Mossé founded this company (under the former name of "High-Tech Systems, Inc.") in 1995 with the goal of helping corporations adopt object-oriented technologies. Although object technologies are widely recognized as a significant advance in software development, many corporations have found the transition to this new paradigm difficult. To meet this challenge, Mossé developed the series of Object Discovery© courses.

These courses provide the necessary theoretical
understanding and practical experience to master Object-Oriented Technologies. In 1999, in
recognition of the company's expertise with Object Oriented Technologies, the name of the
company was changed to Object Discovery Corporation.
At Object Discovery
Corporation,
Mossé has assisted many organizations --from small businesses to major corporations-- in
the successful application of Object Technologies through training, mentoring, and
consulting services. His services have been very well received by all clients,
including: Telegroup, Arbitron, The Mitre Institute, 3M, Freddie
Mac, Deluxe, Norwest Bank, Platinum, Tandem, Gateway, Health Systems Integration, Cabletron, Quintessent Communications, Inc.,

process mapping.
- Used the above "Object-Oriented Business Process Modeling
and Reengineering" technology and lead the entire analysis effort of a large customer billing and management project at the City of Detroit (Water and Sewerage Department). That department has a staff of about 1500, including close to 240 administratives.
