DeSASim's Continuous Scenario Development (CSD) is a unique on-demand interactive methodology used to extract - though extensive collaboration, model, dynamically simulate, project, and analyze the financial and operational performance of existing and proposed businesses.  With DeSASim, a practical and comprehensive planning process is now available as a cost effective operational function carried out on a day-to-day or as-required basis instead of an activity carried out once a year.  Clearly, in our dynamic business environment an annual analysis and review is rapidly out of date, if not misleading. 

CSD changes the way the "work of planning" is done.  It opens the planning function to engage a wide collaboration of knowledgeable people in an informed, creative dialogue to discover what is best for their business to succeed in the future.

How is "On-Demand" Scenario Analysis Possible?

Specifically…DeSA has put together an elegant combination of technology and methodology.

Structured profiles – called “Living Blueprints”, representing current operations and plans for a business, a series of business units, or a series of products or services – are created and stored in a data bank and made ready to support on-demand analysis, exploration and forecasting.  Changes that occur in the life of the business are routinely entered into Living Blueprints, keeping them up-to-date and a true reflection of current-state operations.  Information from extensive collaboration among knowledgeable personnel, from internal BPM (Business Process Management) and ERP systems, and from expert consultants are used to populate the Living Blueprints.

Whenever a scenario analysis is required, the pre-engineered DeSASim expert system “Engine” accesses a pertinent Living Blueprint.  Using desired assumptions, goals, constraints, and operational strategies as controls, the Engine creates a dynamic simulation of expected financial and operational performance for up to 10 years into the future.  Reports, analyses, and presentations are available for immediate use or can be archived and networked among business colleagues…for later review, comparison, modification or upgrading.  There is no waiting… all that’s required is ready to use whenever or wherever the need arises.

The DeSASim Engine producing these results is a dynamic expert system designed to consider all the cause-effect relationships generally present within profit-making or goal-oriented business organizations.  The sum of these relationships is a powerful and realistic Virtual Business Environment for extensive predictive analysis – uniquely adapted to a wide spectrum of business types.

The ease of operation, the scope of analysis, and the flexibility to address vital strategic information requirements provide capabilities to any business that have rarely been available to even the largest organizations.
