"... dramatically improved the speed and cycle times of getting... simulation projects going in distribution and manufacturing from months in the past to as little as one week to maybe three weeks. That´s a big change. It has to do with the way you create the model of the distribution center, among other techniques."

Simcad Pro® ´s ease of use results from an interactive environment that doesn´t require any coding, and can be manipulated during the simulation run. This easy to use environment creates an opportunity for faster model building, faster and easier model manipulation, and a much faster time from model build initiation to analysis.

"They´re using this simulation with their customers in different ways... Rather than doing it up front to plan for a new automated distribution center and... modeling what might happen there depending on dynamics... people are using this as a constant... diagnostic... More of a continuous use thing, or a frequent use thing, rather than this... one time up front before I spend the millions on a big, automated DC... "

Simcad Pro® ´s easy model manipulation and data capture allow fast updates to the model based on current situations and the opportunity to make data-supported decisions on a day-to-day basis.

"You can go back, interacting with the WMS data, and actually... take a look at that and understand exactly why... we didn´t hit targets yesterday (or) last week."

Simcad Pro® allows you to upload and analyze historical data. You can then use this data to understand why your system performed the way it did on certain days, and make data-supported improvements for the future.
