  • 2004 Annual Report in PDF Format
    “Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” Henry Ford A Welcome from the Chairman and the President Where do great ideas come from? Who will plant the seeds of inspiration for gen- erations to come? How can we ensure a better tomorrow? Who will be the next Edison or Einstein, the next John F. Kennedy or Rosa Parks? Who will be the next ordinary person with an idea that changes the world? The Inspiration Project: The Campaign to Transform The Henry Ford rises to answer these important questions. On October 21, 2004, this bold initiative was presented to 250 community lead- ers who gathered to commemorate The Henry Ford’s landmark 75th anniversary and the many extraordinary moments in its history that have inspired generations.They also learned about the host of endeavors that are carrying us toward an even brighter future with new and revitalized exhibits and galleries, improved services and facilities, and robust new programming. The Inspiration Project is helping us secure the funds necessary to develop these expe- riences.The scope of investors in this effort is truly inspiring. By the end of 2004, we accomplished 75 percent of our strategic plan goals and raised more than 75 percent of the campaign’s $155 million goal—a fitting accomplishment for our 75th anniversary. We thank our investors and join them in inviting everyone who believes in the value of this institution to make a contribution to the Inspiration Project. Dollars invested wisely today will be an inspiration to the ordinary visitors who may someday transform all of our daily lives into extraordinary ones.

  • How the Henry Ford Complex Manages Over 1,000 Shifts Daily
    The Henry Ford CASE STUDY How The Henry Ford Complex Manages Over 1,000 Shifts CLIENT The Henry Ford Daily with Just 3 People LOCATION On a sprawling 92-plus-acre site in Dearborn, Michigan, more than 1.7 Dearborn, MI million visitors annually experience 300 years of American innovation, ingenuity, resourcefulness, and perseverance at the five attractions on WEBSITE thehenryford.org site: The Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation, historic Greenfield Village, the Ford Rouge Factory Tour, The Benson Ford Research Center, and The Henry Ford Giant Screen Experience. However, one American innovation that helps keep the popular attraction complex humming is not on public display. It’s ScheduleSource’s innovative workforce management software, which runs behind-the-scenes to ensure that the attractions are fully staffed for all of those visitors—from peak season in the summer and holidays to the off-season. “It’s a large complex site,” says Ann Marie Bernardi, senior manager for administration and scheduling in the guest services unit of The Henry Ford, who has worked at the museum for 38 years. “We need to make sure we have coverage for all our units—Guest Services, Contact Center, Food Service, and Security.” The Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation and Greenfield Village programs unit also incorporates ScheduleSource’s software in their operations daily. ScheduleSource’s TeamWork software was first introduced in the museum’s guest services unit, which handles all front of house ticketing and guest relations for the attractions, starting in late 2004. In addition to guest services, ScheduleSource now handles scheduling for food services (in the museum and village), security (a 24-hour operation), and the contact center (incoming calls, information and orders for tickets), as well as for all the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation interpreters, crafts demonstrators, train and Model T operators, and presenters in the Greenfield Village and Ford Rouge Factory Tour.
