COVID is giving distributors a headache. Companies are experiencing unprecedented drops in demand and explosive increases in demand in other areas. Despite the efforts of governments, industry, scientists, and healthcare workers, some major markets remain at least partially closed, many supply chains face serious disruptions, and most sectors experience continued low demand.
None of us have a crystal ball. At some point, there are too many unknowns, uncertainties, variables, and variability for the brain to comprehend, process and make good decisions. We need help or our heads will explode, turning our headache into something worse, chaos. How do you make sense of that chaos, reduce risk and make calm, data-driven decisions when the world seems conspiring to prevent it?
Computer simulation does just that. Chip manufacturers use it to test new designs before they spend billions on new plants. Factories use it to test plans for assembly lines to make sure they work as expected. Soldiers, surgeons, nurses, truck drivers, policemen and others use it to plan, train, and prepare for whatever the world is going to throw at them. Why shouldn’t distributors use it too? MOSIMTEC specializes in supply chain simulation software and simulation modeling. We’re here to help.
