- End-to-End Network PlanningEnd-to-End Network PlanningThe end-to-end optimization of networks means the systematic analysis and improvement along the entire value chain of a product – from the raw materials to customer delivery.
- Employee Capacity PlanningEmployee Capacity PlanningParticularly in large corporations with several hundred or thousand employees it is not possible for work to be performed without employee capacity schedules. The trick is to optimally schedule employees based on their skills and qualifications, to avoid individual peaks in the workload and observe labor regulations such as legal working hours and rest periods.
- Logistics PlanningLogistics PlanningLogistics is the lifeline of the economy. Without an elaborate network of transport and storage options, business operations would quickly come to a standstill.
- Network PlanningNetwork PlanningThe strategic planning of production and logistic networks is a demanding task. It is said that approx. 80% of the costs of a network are already determined during the planning stage. The savings potential here is therefore immense.
- Production PlanningProduction PlanningProduction planning and machine utilization are demanding tasks. The range of options is huge and there are a lot of cross-dependencies and planning risks. As well as these, there are also goals which often conflict with one another.
- Supply Chain PlanningSupply Chain PlanningModern supply chains basically have to meet two conflicting goals: cost-efficiency and resilience. Trying to find a trade-off between the two is no easy task. Maintaining a large and diverse supplier base creates at least as many constraints and cross-dependencies. This is where manual planning quickly reaches its limits. We show how mathematical optimization helps to optimize supply chains.

- Industries
- AutomotiveAutomotiveThe automotive industry is currently undergoing a structural change like no other. E-mobility, autonomous driving and alternative fuels are major challenges the industry is facing – but they also offer huge development opportunities. At the same time, current production must continue to run trouble-free. Delivery problems at the supplier end in particular keep disrupting what should be a smooth production process. It is essential to meet both current and future challenges as efficiently as possible and be well prepared for them.
- Chemical IndustryChemical IndustryMarket changes, new forms of technology and the demands of governments and society – the chemical industry is currently facing many challenges. The call for more sustainability is the driving force behind almost all of these changes. The switch from circular to linear value chains has turned the sector upside down and all areas of its business need to undergo analysis and change.
- Consumer GoodsConsumer GoodsConstant new trends, consumers‘ demands for more individualization, fast delivery and low prices, plus the optimal level of digitization and automization: the challenges involved in manufacturing consumer products are immense.
- LogisticsLogisticsIndustries and (international) trade need modern and efficient logistics to operate properly. The logistics sector in particular is currently facing challenges which need to be countered effectively. Alongside supply reliability, the focus is now clearly on the issue of sustainability and environmental protection. How can transport and storage be managed more sustainably?
- EnergyEnergyOne industry that has been directly affected more than any other by the political and social requirements related to green energy is, of course, the energy sector. Generating ecological energy – above all solar and wind energy – is far less controllable and thus requires changes to its supply and storage.
- Mining IndustryMining IndustryWhen people think of mining, they often think of large coal mines – and these will gradually disappear with increasing decarbonization. Yet mining encompasses much more than the extraction of coal: (quartz) sand, gravel, salt, limestone and much more is also extracted through mining! Another aspect which is not given enough consideration is that the production of green energies also consumes raw materials of this kind – for example in the production of wind turbines and photovoltaic systems.

- B&O Service AGB&O Service AGB&O Service und Messtechnik AG in Bad Aibling oversees more than 600,000 residential rental units for its clients throughout Germany. It employs over 1000 maintenance technicians of all trades at 30 locations making it one of Germany’s largest real estate service providers. In the event of exterior and interior damage to its rental units, tenants can call the company’s call centers where an appointment will be arranged for a technician to come out and make repairs promptly.
- BMW GroupBMW GroupPlanning a network is a highly complex task involving a wide range of issues. Efficient algorithms are necessary in order to evaluate information from several hundred thousand datasets precisely and above all, rapidly.
- Daimler Truck AGDaimler Truck AGOPTANO GmbH has successfully developed and introduced an OPTANO solution for Daimler Trucks to optimize its global sales and production program in the Powertrain sector. Following a design phase (OR|Analysis) and the modeling of its IT system (OR|Model), the software could then be implemented precisely (OR|System). You can find more detailed information on this procedure here.
- HolcimHolcimOur project with Holcim: the cost-optimized production and delivery of cement to end customers within a complex, international network.
- Lavazza ProfessionalLavazza ProfessionalLavazza Professional is a well-known manufacturer and operator of vending machines. In a study, we were asked to determine whether software-based route assignment could reduce the amount of time service technicians spend traveling. The results are as revealing as they are surprising.
- Lufthansa Aviation TrainingLufthansa Aviation TrainingLufthansa Flight Training (LFT) GmbH is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Deutsche Lufthansa AG. It has more than 50 years of experience in the training and further training of cockpit and cabin crews, making it one of the leading providers of training services for airlines worldwide. At present, more than 150 airlines from all over the world train with the LFT Group at five locations.
