Operational Decision Intelligence
Improving business outcomes under demand and supply uncertainty
Executives are under constant pressure to consistently achieve critical business outcomes despite ever-increasing uncertainty and complexity
Current decision support solutions limit rather than enhance executives’ ability to make effective decisions under uncertainty
-
Tree instead of the forest
They are functionally siloed and focus on process efficiencies. No one solution can effectively provide direct visibility to critical business outcomes. Executives lose valuable reaction time waiting for a comprehensive picture to emerge
-
Technology as panacea
They seek to apply increasingly sophisticated algorithms to abstractions of reality in pursuit functional “optimality”. Executives are deprived of business-level trade-offs and other potentially more satisficing options to achieve desired outcomes
-
Dangers that lurk within
They actively exclude, or grossly simplify uncertainties and complexities and create a false sense of predictability. Executives are compelled to act on faith only to be faced with limited and often unpleasant choices when reality differs from expectations
