The first step in building a business process simulation model is ensuring the overall flow is correct. Developing an operational flow first involves walking through the process with a process expert in a controlled environment. […]
1. Business process simulation helps you visualize and understand your business processes. […]
Queue preloading is a process where the queues / storages in the model are preloaded with entities. This helps when you have a large model and you need to reduce the overall simulation starting time. […]
Build and Test Models in a Fraction of the Time In an Oregon Hospital, a modeler has learned a technique to build accurate models in 2 days. Not models of one interaction, but models of an entire department, such as Surgery, Maternity or the overall flow of a hospital. In this article, you will learn [...]
Simplify changes to all areas of your model by creating a ProcessModel custom interface. This article walks you through the process and provides a template to make your work easy. […]
I recently performed a process improvement/simulation study of pre op and post op area that serviced a series of surgical suites. I learned a great deal about sizing of the combined system. […]
Process improvement in a job shop is challenging and can be time consuming, but is doesn’t have to be. ProcessModel has introduced a new model object that reduces the time to model to a fraction of what it was in the past. This model object also provides a way to import new data in seconds. [...]
