Optimization projects are complex. 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. Let’s see what the first phase is about and what we achieve with it.

The management of complex production networks is demanding. Often, the necessary transparency is lacking to coordinate demand and production capacities in such a way that goods availability and production costs are in an optimal relationship. How production networks work and how they can be optimized with the help of advanced analytics is what our colleague Marc Johann talks about in his premiere as the second host of “One more thing about…”. Enjoy!

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.
