Simulation

Discover bottlenecks and hidden inefficiencies

Want to gain more control over business-critical processes? FlowFast uses simulation to make operations visual, measurable, and transparent. These digital models make it possible to replicate and analyze processes—without the risk of experimenting in the real world.

Why simulate?

Many companies face inefficiencies, waiting times, and unexpected delays in their warehouse processes. These bottlenecks often remain hidden in day-to-day operations. With a simulation model of the warehouse or production site, FlowFast reveals these hidden processes and makes bottlenecks visible that would otherwise go unnoticed.

A good simulation shows:

• How orders move through the warehouse or production site
• Where delays occur
• Which resources (people, machines, spaces) are overloaded or underutilized
• What is the effect of changes in demand, layout, or capacity

Opportunities for logistics optimization

These insights create space to test scenarios: what happens if routes are changed? If staff planning changes? Or if order volumes increase? Simulation enables companies to make decisions based on data rather than gut feeling.

This leads to:

• increased output
• higher productivity levels
• reduced inventory levels
• improved service levels
• greater customer satisfaction

Examples from practice

Curious to see what this looks like? Below are a few examples of previous optimization projects carried out by FlowFast using FlexSim simulation software. Each model is tailored to the specific situation of the customer and provides valuable insights immediately.

FlowFast also offers a specific service called simulation of the Value Stream Map, which can provide valuable insights and process optimizations.
