How realistic will the simulation model and the results be ?
A2. The key to a successful simulation project is ensuring that the model is a true and valid representation of the system being evaluated. A poorly configured model will give unreliable results. To ensure model validity our simulation solution approach directs significant resources on the process mapping and data collection phases. Based our extensive experience we deploy a variety of tools and methods that confirm the model validity. Note that a simulation solution provides the mean system behavior and the extreme range. Comparing the simulations results against a single shift or one day of real performance is not recommended. Of course, no simulation is 100% accurate when predicting the behavior of its corresponding system: they are usually considerably simpler than the associated system, contain a number of assumptions, and are based upon some incomplete data.
