Optimization Software Target Map

November 16 Phillip Slater

Subject Area: Optimization Software Target Map

Optimization Software Target MapOptimization Software Target Map

Our optimization software target map is designed to help you visually identify the strengths and weakness of different software choices.

The map is divided into four quadrants. Each quadrant represents a different feature of optimization software programs.

For each quadrant you use a three part scale to plot the position for the software options under consideration.

This is the unique position as the features apply to your situation and company.

This approach enables you to easily see which options most closely meet your needs.

It also enables you to see where you need more information to ‘close the gap’ between your needs and the information you have.

The optimization software map is explained in this short video, an edited extract from a live webinar titled: Selecting the Right Spare Parts Inventory Optimization Software for Your Company

Run time: 4:08
