Optimization projects are complex and for our customers, every optimization project is a journey into uncharted territory. How can we make sure, that our projects are going in the right direction? We divide our projects into 3 phases: the prototype, the minimum viable product and the fully productive product. After the prototype in the last video, let’s see why we have phase 2 for the minimum viable product.

Sometimes optimization specialists combine different existing techniques to tackle a new type of problem. This is the case for flow network analysis and the facility location problem by combining them to flow location networks. Let’s see how that works and what can be solved this way.

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.
