Optimization, the very word evokes a mixed set of emotions. Very few solutions achieve true optimization and the “Black Box” solutions often don’t show you definitively what the best solution is. In fact, most optimization solutions are just effective engines to ferret out bad data in the system.
Supply Chain Toolworks believes that good operations planning requires a sandbox approach and that optimization is best done in concert with an informed analyst. We call this “Facilitated Optimization” where the analyst and the solution work in concert to find the best viable solution.
