Warehouse
Simulation Module
Whether it’s introducing a new product, launching
an e-commerce initiative or revising a warehouse layout,
changes in a distribution center can be expensive and
risky. Often, the impact can ripple throughout a customer’s
entire business, creating unanticipated headaches and
the need for additional changes.
CatalystCommand Simulator eliminates much of these risks
and hassles. By giving customers a graphic, real-time
view of different scenarios, it enables them to explore
various options – and measure their impact –
before committing financial or other resources to implementing
new initiatives.

and is written in AutoMod, the leading simulation language,
whose source code is included for easy modification and
maintenance by users. |
