Who is using ExtendSim in Government & Public Sector

  • FDI Operations Modeling & Simulation created a single model that simulated different prison healthcare systems. The GSDB was used to contain the data specific to each facility. Changing the model to a new prison only required importing a different database. They were able to efficiently simulate over 350 different scenarios eventually developing a new process which was superior to the current processes at all of the modeled prisons.
  • In 1993, The Federal Aviation Administrations' (FAA) groupware Team Technology Center pioneered the use of ExtendSim in conjunction with groupware. Using both tools, they collected data and built models to reengineer human resources support processes in near real-time. Consultants Coopers & Lybrand developed a powerful process visualization technique that allowed client team members to actively participate in model development and validation. ExtendSim enabled the redefinition of the FAA's entire simulation service delivery capability - a crucial element in their business process reengineering practice.
  • The University of Tulsa develops novel models and computational methods that are capable of predicting the impact of R&D and capital investment decisions (how much to invest and in which technology and when) on the evolution of biomass conversion technologies for feedstock development for the chemical process industry.
  • The net-centric logistics (NCL) land platform model simulates  the logistics of an US Army’s battlefield including all of the platforms, personnel, logistics, and supplies needed to support a heavy armor company. The model specifically includes spare vehicle parts as well as commodities (food, fuel, water, ammunition). It enables the customer to determine the benefits and explore the implementation of NCL concepts during a wartime deployment. The model also allows for the identification of potential logistics bottlenecks and the measurement of a unit’s platform availability and resource consumption.
  • Boeing's Depot Process Model simulates a wide variety of maintenance depot setups and configurations, starting from the same generic model. The model processes and logically controls the movement of vehicles through a depot according to variable task requirements and the availability of resources (personnel, support equipment, parts, and physical space). As data from an actual depot operation is applied to the model, it will assist with the identification of process improvement opportunities which will improve vehicle throughput capacity and platform (tank, aircraft, etc.) availability.
  • Modeling of discrete operational events that could impact the logistic support ramifications of unmanned aerial vehicle availability.
  • Refugee Relief simulation setting both staffing schedules and triage policies in a health care setting at a refugee camp in Croatia.
