Modelling for Better Operations Scheduling and Throughput Optimization
Simulation modeling solves real-world problems safely and efficiently
Do You Need Simulation?
How to determine the effective or maximal throughput, identify the bottlenecks or in which situations the bottleneck moves, establish the best schedule or evaluate if there are enough resources?
Will it be possible to deliver on time, is it possible to reduce costs, what is the most desirable expansion scenario?
These are typical questions expressing an underlying need to model operations using simulation.
The Power of Discrete Events Simulation
Discrete Event Simulation allows to understand and model operations for which time, variability, movement and resource availability are critical elements
Discovering underlying interactions and key drivers provides intelligence on the whole process. A global view for fact-based decision-making!

Our Globally Recognized Expertise
Our consultants have extensive experience in developing complex models for many applications. In addition to having developed unique specialized libraries for bulk materials simulation, traffic and maintainability, they have published scientific peer-reviewed articles and participated in several international conferences. Our modeling approach is practical. We make decision-making tools accessible and democratic, easing the configuration of scenarios and the interpretation of results.
Expand on your simulation knowledge by reading about our framework which combines lean, statistics and programming. Sharing our knowledge with our clients is part of our culture. We offer training sessions on the practical use of simulation.
