Design and optimization of supply and manufacturing networks constitute strategic issues for manufacturing industries. Alignment of the resources to the market demand is becoming more complex and is needed more frequently to keep high operations profitability in a rapidly changing business environment.

To keep ahead of competition manufacturing industries need to predict performance of existing and projected supply and manufacturing networks stressed by a real or forecasted demand.

A unique approach is proposed which associates senior expertise with advanced modelling and simulation technology to support manufacturing industries in designing and optimizing their supply and manufacturing networks in terms of:

• profitability;
• capacity;
• agility;
• robustness;
• sustainability;
• quality;

Thanks to this approach manufacturing industries take the best decisions in respect of:

• operations profitability;
• business reputation;
• financial risk.
