Key Differentiators

Driving Measurable Benefits for Our Clients

Functionality

Optessa:

Comprehensive, “out of the box” functionality to support a full range of planning & scheduling applications

Competition:

Limited; required functionality has to be “custom-developed” with separate solutions required for Planning & Scheduling

Output Quality

Optessa:

Schedules generated by proprietary solver based on modern optimization heuristics, yielding optimal schedules

Competition:

Schedules generated by “greedy heuristics” or LP/IP methods that result in sub-optimal quality

Complexity & Speed

Optessa:

Unique ability to model and solve all real-world constraints, without the need for manual intervention

Competition:

For large problems can handle only a subset of constraints

Model & Scope

Optessa:

Out of the box support for 23 constraint types capable of modeling all real-world production rules
The scope can range from enterprise-level to every tier with fully interconnected models

Competition:

Limited to a few constraints

Material Stability

Optessa:

Unique bias capabilities that minimize the impact of rescheduling, enhancing material stability

Competition:

Plans and schedules are not robust – can change with every iteration

Enhancements & Evolution

Optessa:

Optessa invests in R&D and continuous improvement

Competition:

Custom applications are limited and cannot evolve
