Simulation
Science specialists work with clients to build a custom simulation of the problem being studied to assist decision-makers in
seeing the complexity of the situation so they can 'rise' above it and focus on activities that benefit the entire
company.
For a telecom we build a simulation tool that enables the future performance of the company to be
estimated based on the implementation of different Customer Management strategies.
We pulled together the
resources to support:
- A process to gain a shared understanding of the drivers, issues and potential options
- A simulation that can quantify and trade off competing options
Customer Management strategies will
impact on the telecom's performance as measured by KPIs. However the KPIs should not be viewed as independent.
Flexibility in Strategy
Posted on August 27th, 2005
I was once working at the Market Entry strategy for a Steel Service Center firm from France looking to tap
the newly emerging Indian Auto industry. My team lead’s way to estimate the market numbers for their future was to look at
the Auto’s that will be manufactured and so the amount of steel required and therefore work backwards.. and so that should
be the market that we will tap. Nice logic but it totally forgot the actions of our clients’ competitors that might
(WOULD!) come in to give them a run for the money.
