Triaster Business Tools
I am a big fan of Data Managerand Simulation and Aggregation.The AS-IS and TO-BE can bemapped and simulations runagainst these. The business case is then in place, when you go to senior managements withsuggestions for improvement.
Mark Hanson, ManagementSystems AdvisorBalfour Beatty Services
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
• 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?
• 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:

Discovering Your Efficiencies
• Employee expenses not being paid
• Investigate as is process
• Compare improved to be process
Company X
• What is it?
Make comparison between sites for:
• Audit trails• Change summaries
Compare Site Functionality
• Modelling the effects of changing processes:
o With previous copies of your libraryo As Is versus To Beo Compare costs between 2 process versions
Compare Site Functionality
• Property changes• changed numeric items• objects added or removed
• Enables comparison between sites• cost• time• activities and deliverables on the map
Compare Site Functionality
• Identify improvement opportunities
o Bottlenecks in processeso Specific areas to improve
• Significance value
o Frequency of occurrence x total effort

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.
