If You Knew Today What You'll Regret Tomorrow ...

As industrial and social complexity increase, existing planning and management tools struggle to capture this complexity robustly. Many systems have components with their own rules, responsibilities and objectives, and although one component may be more influential than another, none is in complete control of the system. It’s impossible to envisage and understand

• how all the various parts of the system interact and add up to the whole is well beyond the conceptual modelling capability of the human mind.
• the entire range of behaviours the real system could exhibit, and the full effects when change occurs or strategies are implemented.

Relying on subjective, biased, untested views to inform business decisions can damage business performance. So what can simulation consultancy offer?

A Glimpse Of The Future

A well designed model and properly executed simulation create new knowledge by providing a risk free world in which to explore the potential future impact of your decisions.

Part of a larger analytical framework, these techniques offer a unique test bed on which to challenge current ways of working and an experimental environment in which to test new ideas, policies and strategies.

Sounds familiar, but existing modelling techniques are beginning to struggle to accommodate increasing complexity and because they aggregate individual customers, employees, business units, products or other distinct entities (agents) into homogeneous groups, they can reach inaccurate conclusions.

Agent Based Modelling and Simulation (ABMS) attributes autonomy to each of these individual agents to achieve a model which much more closely reflects real life and delivers predictions that are much more robust.

dseConsulting is one of the only UK practitioners of this increasingly popular methodology.

We can plan and execute all of your modelling and simulation requirements, providing expert insight for specific projects or to inform your long range strategic plans.

If your requirement is likely to be large and ongoing, it may be more economical to migrate modelling and simulation in-house, with the support of dseConsulting simulation tools.

Combining consultancy with simulation tools can help you to benefit from insight as quickly as possible, while developing in-house expertise.
