Simulation software improves product flow
WITNESS simulation software from Lanner Group has helped to bring substantial improvements in productivity and operational processes to Michelin's tyre manufacturing plant in Dundee.
This is the first time that Lanner has made WITNESS available in an object oriented COM environment, enabling industry-standard linkage and easy embedding into third-party applications.
Simulation technology has delivered many benefits over many years.
Now SIMBA - Simulation BAsed Application - extends its power and capability to a broader audience and application base, in differentiating and supporting both strategic business change initiatives as well as operational planning and support systems.
These include Supply Chain, Customer Service and Front and Back Office Performance Improvement solutions.
SIMBA is designed to enable the faster development and deployment of operational planning systems across industry, using the power of simulation-based "what-if" decision support.
All applications built using SIMBA will now be "powered by WITNESS".
Simulation Technology, a well-kept secret in mainstream IT, delivers unique benefits to quantify improved Business Performance: Animated processes to aid understanding; Time based analysis of throughputs; Forecasting of performance metrics; Interactive "what-if" testing of the business model; Strategic level scenario visibility and detail process level analysis; Confidence in the accuracy of results and analysis of metrics; Process Optimisation; Analysis of work flow and data flow; Unique visualisation of processes in Two and Three Dimensions.
"We have made available an industrial strength component that can be built into any application, unleashing the power of simulation technology and the best of breed WITNESS toolset.
", says David Jones, Marketing Director, Lanner Group.
Lanner expects software vendors and its power customers to license the SIMBA Developer Suite, which comprises a Developer Kit (SDK) for authoring applications and a Deployment Kit (SDEP) for controlling the deployment and viewing, either standalone or embedded.
