  • The need to create an advanced database
Industry
Metallurgy
Objectives
  • Implement effective sales and operations planning
  • Align divisional plans with business needs and available resources
  • Consider the opportunities and limitations of logistics and production
Tasks
Solution
Result
  • Create a database to store information within the project
  • Create an optimization model generating scenarios by altering model parameters
  • Generate a report on the results of the program
Tasks
Solution
Result

  • A database capable of reading configuration files and switching to external data sources has been created
  • An optimization model with variable solutions, constraints, objective function components (KPIs) has been developed
  • The possibility of setting the parameters of the solver and connecting an external solver has been provided
Tasks
Solution
Result
  • Using linear programming algorithms, a software product was created to find the optimum of the optimization objective function
  • The solver is based on the OpenSource and proprietary licenses
  • Benchmarking with the SAP APO SNP showed that the outcomes of the solution correspond with the plan created in the SAP APO
  • The product application resulted in maximizing business profits
