dseConsulting supports business through four main services. Operations Management (OM): OM is at the core of every business, being the reality of meeting customer needs with a product or a service. This is not always as simple as it sounds and can often consume a large quantity of hidden time and money. The process of OM is all about making it happen consistently, costs effectively and doing it better. The scope of OM functions that dseConsulting deals with include service design, quality management, forecasting, order fulfilment management, warehouse design & management, inventory policy (from JiT to Kanban) and supply chain management (SCM). Risk Modelling: Risk analysis is an important role in operations management. Business risks arise from every area of running a business, and each decision made or business deal signed can increase or reduce these risks. In an ideal world each business factor would be investigated fully to understand risk, but this is time consuming and costly. This is where modelling can help, by building a model of your company or industry, it is possible to understand which factors your business is sensitive to, and therefore where is the most risks, and where resources should be focussed. Business Simulation: Simulation is a particular type of modelling that investigates dynamic behaviour over time. By building simulations of particular problems, companies, workflow or processes, management are given the chance to experiment. In this way the route cause of problems can be identified and management creativity can be encourage - innovative and 'off the wall' ideas can be trialled, what-if analysis completed and a clear indication of performance gained before a potentially risky strategy is adopted. Agent based Simulation: Innovations in autonomous agents have an exciting role in modern OM. Agents are intuitive models of real world entities. These can be your business, competitors, supply chains or people & customers. By modelling these as agents and building them into simulations, it is possible to learn about the true causes of system behaviour, and which strategies can adopted to mitigate these risks.
