Building a simulation model is just the first step in the process of improving operations
Building a simulation model is just the first step in the process of improving operations. SimRunner takes your model and allows you to run a number of "what-if" scenarios to investigate the results of making changes to your system. Manually, this process can take a long time, but with SimRunner (included in all of our Optimization Suites), it is automated. SimRunner allows you to define the criteria for optimization, for example maximizing throughput and simultaneously minimizing cost per unit. You can also define the factors in the system that can be changed, such as the number of employees, inventory levels or system capacity. Using your criteria, SimRunner automatically runs a series of experiments and logs the results. These results can then be displayed and ranked according to your preference. With optimization, you can be confident you have a complete solution to your problem.
