I was talking to a fellow ExtendSim model developer, Aaron Kim from JWA Consulting. Aaron, who is a Lean consultant in the health care industry, uses ExtendSim as part of his Lean toolbox. Aaron described one of his recent simulation models, and it got me thinking not only about how underutilized simulation is. Why are there not more models built that simply compare concepts at a high level?

Since the late 1990s, ExtendSim has had an embedded database as part of its simulation tool. Now in its second generation, it is so incredibly useful that I can’t imagine building a model without it.

I recently had a discussion with a scheduler at a manufacturing plant. I was trying to explain to him the benefits of simulation, and I thought it might be a good discussion to post here as well.
