21. Project Challenge - Performance
Planning and Simulation: The level of detail required in the planning stage makes the process simulation very complex and time consuming (i.e: a complex Forecast takes 2 days for a complete cycle). The calculations complexity and the level of details force users to restrict the simulation and calculation time of the what-if scenarios
Reporting Environment: The back office activities to consolidate and publish data of all the markets on the reporting environment takes more than a day with a big impact on the availability of data for the executives. In addition some dashboard don’t meet the performance requirements expected
Flexibility and speed of reaction are essential requirements
