Description
Simulation Modelling Workshop
Improve Decision-Making Through Simulation
Simulation modelling is one of the most effective ways to analyse complex systems, evaluate improvement opportunities and make informed decisions before implementing change.
This practical workshop introduces participants to the principles of simulation modelling and demonstrates how organisations can use digital models to optimise flow, capacity, productivity and operational performance. Through a combination of theory and hands-on exercises using AnyLogic, delegates will gain practical experience in developing and applying simulation models to solve real-world business challenges.
Whether you work in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, transportation, government or research, this workshop provides practical skills that can be applied immediately within your organisation.
Why Attend?
Organisations are increasingly using simulation modelling to reduce risk, improve planning and make better operational decisions.
This workshop will help participants:
- Understand the fundamentals of simulation modelling
- Explore different simulation approaches and when to use them
- Learn how simulation supports data-driven decision-making
- Evaluate process improvements before implementation
- Improve operational flow, resource utilisation and capacity planning
- Gain practical experience using AnyLogic simulation software
By the end of the workshop, participants will understand how simulation can support continuous improvement initiatives and operational excellence across a wide range of industries.
What Will You Learn?
During this hands-on workshop, participants will explore:
- The principles of simulation modelling
- Simulation modelling approaches and methodologies
- Applications across manufacturing, logistics, healthcare and other industries
- The benefits of simulation for operational improvement
