1. How to make the most of Triaster Business Analyst Tools Steve Odeyemi Nicholas Hall

2. Simulation & Aggregation Improvement Launchpad Compare sites Weblog Expert (time permitting) Triaster Business Tools I am a big fan of Data Manager and Simulation and Aggregation. The AS-IS and TO-BE can be mapped and simulations run against these. The business case is then in place, when you go to senior managements with suggestions for improvement. Mark Hanson, Management Systems Advisor Balfour Beatty Services

3. Examples of simulation in daily life 1.Weather forecast 2.City and urban planning 3.Traffic light sequencing 4.Automotive industry 5.Flight 6.Marine 7.Military 8.Finance 9.Sales 10.Economics 11.Satellite navigation 12.Biometrics

4. Simulation of business processes helps in understanding, analysing, and designing processes. With the use of simulation the (re)designed processes can be evaluated and compared. - Provide quantitative estimates of the impact that a process design is likely to have on performance and quantitatively supported choice for the best design to be made.(K Tumey ) Aggregation – to gather into a whole. What is Simulation & Aggregation?

5. Predict off-design performance of existing processes to identify and mitigate possible problems e.g. bottlenecks Determine how making modifications in one part of your existing process affects other processes Optimising efficiency in processes during design of future state (To Be) processes Develop risk mitigation Why use simulation in BPM ? It’s a lot cheaper to:

15. What is it? Make comparison between sites for: Audit trails Change summaries Compare Site Functionality

16. Modelling the effects of changing processes: o With previous copies of your library o As Is versus To Be o Compare costs between 2 process versions Compare Site Functionality

17. Property changes changed numeric items objects added or removed Enables comparison between sites cost time activities and deliverables on the map Compare Site Functionality

18. Identify improvement opportunities o Bottlenecks in processes o Specific areas to improve Significance value o Frequency of occurrence x total effort Improvement Launchpad

23. Simulation model If ‘Y’ is the desired output and ‘X’ the result of an individual component model, vary ‘X’ and see how much ‘Y’ changes. If changing ‘X’ has little effect on ‘Y’ then that component doesn’t need a very sophisticated model.
