Avoid Costly Mistakes by Testing Change - Process reengineering can often be extremely costly to an organisation when forecasted improvements prove to be insignificant. It is often prudent to run simulations to determine the actual impact that recommended changes will have on company operations. A powerful tool is needed to give your consultants the quantitative data required to run a proper analysis and for your board of directors to make an informed business decision. Although data collection requires additional resources and time, it is often best to be "safe now, rather than sorry later."

Run Dynamic What-If Scenarios with EPC Designer - The EPC Designer module allows you to run detailed simulations based on the process data that you captured in the EPC repository. Using our simulation tool you can build a realistic representation of your company and run dynamic what-if scenarios to test the integrity of your process design on multiple axes. Avoid process bottlenecks by analysing activity durations and delays as well as by examining resources' idle time . Perform a cost analysis of each activity or on a process as a whole to determine how costs can be reduced and optimised. Our simulation engine is built upon a framework that has been tested and refined over 15 years, ensuring that your simulations will meet a high standard of realism and accuracy. Furthermore, the EPC Designer is a fully functional stand-alone product, allowing consultants to work on multiple sites locally without needing to stay connected to the EPC database - providing additional flexibility and simplicity without sacrificing integration.

Report on any object in the EPC database

In order to make effective decisions regarding company strategies, business managers - require insight into company operations in order to conduct an analysis and plan for the organisation's future. A bird's-eye view is required in order to gain the perspective necessary to enable effective planning by your management resources - but many managers do not always have access to the information they need when the time is right.
