Why Every Continuous Improvement Practitioner Should Understand Monte Carlo Simulation
|
Uncertainty can be spooky. But Monte Carlo simulation helps reduce the jump scare of decision-making by providing a clearer view of the risks involved. It can't tell you if you forecast is right or wrong, but it can help you understand the possible outcomes that could occur if it's off.
Join practitioners, manufacturing teams, and even Agile software teams as they incorporate Monte Carlo simulation into their improvement work to create a more accurate picture of what your process will look like and how it will perform under real conditions.
Learn to speak the language of probability and back up decisions with data. Discover why it's changing their game, and why it should belong in your continuous improvement toolkit, too.

Simulating Success with Process Modeling
|
On this episode of Quality Time with MoreSteam, Dr. Lars Maaseidvaag joins the show to talk about one of his areas of expertise, discrete event simulation, and why it’s such a powerful problem-solving tool. He shares an example of working with a large hospital that faced a massive screening bottleneck, with hundreds of people waiting in their cars. By quickly building and running a simulation model, Lars and his team identified practical solutions that streamlined the process and saved the hospital thousands of dollars per day, without requiring any new equipment.
And catch up on every other episode here.
