What it is
A decision support toolkit for Supply Chain planning optimization supported by accelerated best in class model development and backed by a modular, client customizable UI framework.
The tool can be rolled out at scale across sites and fully linked to IT systems through a multi-platform user interface.
Advanced Analytics from complex problems
Customized to perfectly fit the problem
Cloud solution for easy interface and access
Rapid and agile development
Focus on value capture
Value Maximizer can be used in the future digital supply chain based on end-to-end optimization which will enable transparency and fast and accurate decision making across functions
How it works
Value Maximizer creates a digital twin of complex system to enable real time optimization by various digital tools
Diagnose & Scope
Conduct site visits and interviews to assess the value at stake
Define tool requirements and scope (MVP and Business grade prototype)
Design & Prototype
(Digital twin method)
Build mathematical optimization model of the operations including technical and market constraints based on Python
Develop basic user interface for data input (e.g., Excel) and output visualization (e.g., Tableau)
Refine & Optimize
Challenge assumptions and constraints to unlock additional value (sensitivity analysis)
Run scenarios to identify high-yield investments and build their business case
Integrate model with UI platform with scenario creation and comparison functionality coupled with custom output visualizations
Integrate & Transform
(Roll-out at scale)
Embed the tool in the IT system (e.g., ERP, MES)
Fast roll out to other sites based on archetypes
Value Maximizer is mainly used to solve 3 main types of supply chain issues
Footprint/Network optimization
Simultaneously optimize production setup, external and internal logistics routes, procurement of raw materials, vs. sales forecast across a network of interlinked production sites or within a complex plant
Production planning (S&OP)
Optimize sequence of products and production flows of a complex batch or continuous production process to meet sales requirements, accounting for logistics and production constraints
Detailed scheduling optimization
Assess feasibility of future production plan in case of volume/ mix changes and simulate different debottlenecking scenario by providing an optimal calendar at day/shift level
