SIMUL8 2012 has arrived offering users a new simulation experience

April 2, 2012 - PRLog -- SIMUL8 Corporation the developers of fast, powerful, and easy to use simulation software are pleased to announce the launch of SIMUL8 2012, their latest solution to bring the power of simulation to process improvers.  

It’s been a very busy and exciting year for SIMUL8 Corporation preparing for their latest release. With a vision of getting every process improver using simulation to help with decision making there was a large focus on making simulation easy for both non-users and users alike to let anyone develop simulation skills.

There were big steps to make this possible and the upgrade from SIMUL8 2011 showcases new features that enhance the SIMUL8 experience for users, as well as adding new dimensions by introducing Value Stream Mapping and supporting business process management by integrating BPMN 2.0 with simulation functionality for a whole business solution.

The biggest, although subtle difference has been a name change of the simulation objects, a change that will make it easier for non simulation users to understand what the objects do, and access the power of simulation. In addition, other features like the Analytics Panel (a visual, interactive resource, making it easier to see the best scenario at a glance) and Jump Start (an easy way to search all of the features in the SIMUL8 menu), make it clear that SIMUL8 2012 has been developed with the customer in mind.

Building on the ability to simulate any process and the visual and interactive element that is intrinsic to SIMUL8, SIMUL8 2012 has been designed to not only build, but understand and improve your internal business processes. For example, with the addition of BPMN, instead of just drawing out what a process looks like, Business Analysts can now use simulation to optimize their entire business process from end-to-end.

As a process improvement tool, there has been a large emphasis on developing SIMUL8 to have an even greater immediate and positive impact on efficiency and productivity – and this is visible with the release of SIMUL8 2012.

“I'm very proud that year after year we continue to release 'real' upgrades, and SIMUL8 2012 is no exception. The addition of Lean Value Stream Mapping and BPMN in this version is a huge leap forward in bringing the power of simulation to mainstream business process improvers. We're confident that even more users will be benefitting from simulation driven process improvement soon” –Frances Sneddon, SIMUL8 Chief Technology Officer
