Cleveland-based TMX Transform, a supply chain consulting firm, announced Thursday it had introduced simulation solutions to visualize, validate and test supply chain designs.
Using Simulation, digital twins, and virtual reality (VR) tools and services, TMX Transform said it could provide insights into DC operations and greenfield facilities, that would help its clients make informed strategic decisions.
“Today’s companies need to move beyond the old way of working; using a spreadsheet to model supply chain data and movement isn’t going to cut it anymore,” Jeff Bornino, North American president for TMX Transform, said. “We’re helping customers go further, faster by removing the guesswork from complex ‘what if’ scenarios. Our approach combines robust supply chain strategies with dynamic technologies to support businesses today and into the future.”
Because supply chains are growing in complexity, the company said, businesses need data-informed approaches to design that reflects real operations rather. The company said its simulation tool supports network performance optimization, DC optimization and operations validation, and automation feasibility validation.
“North American companies that haven’t yet considered automation are lagging behind. We support companies in understanding available technologies and selecting the most suitable for their needs,” Nick de Klerk, associate director of TMX Transform, said. “We take pride in being the market leader and are dedicated to helping clients predict, plan, and mitigate risks in automation projects, ensuring a predictable result.”
