Life – and planning in particular – would be so much easier if we knew in advance what was going to happen in the future. Of course, that’s not possible. But with predictive analytics, we come pretty close, at least for our planning questions.

To the untrained eye, it is not immediately obvious whether using a solver is an easy step or impossible. Let’s take a look at problem complexity, scalability to our problem size.

Tactical planning serves the goal of continuous improvement. To achieve this mathematical optimization does not only provide the best set of decisions, but also an evaluation of how much a decision is worth. In this episode we explain, how it works.
