Model Custodianship
Protect the Value of Your Simulation Investment
A simulation model can remain a valuable engineering and planning tool long after its original study is complete. But as operations evolve, equipment changes, production plans are revised and new decisions arise, the model must evolve as well.
MISIM provides ongoing technical stewardship of simulation models, managing updates, assumptions, inputs, versions and analytical results. We help clients maintain confidence in their models while reducing the burden on internal engineering and operations teams.
Whether maintaining a model developed by MISIM or supporting an existing client model, our objective is to preserve its technical integrity and usefulness as a decision-support tool.
Maintain Model Integrity
Changes to engineering designs, equipment configurations and operating assumptions can affect model behaviour and results.
We apply structured model governance, including version control, documentation, verification and management of inputs. This helps maintain traceability, reproducibility and confidence in the analysis as the model evolves.
Support Ongoing Planning and Analysis
Simulation models often support recurring decisions involving production planning, maintenance, equipment requirements and capital investments.
MISIM manages model updates, scenario configurations and simulation runs as planning requirements change. Results are organized and documented so engineering and management teams can compare alternatives using a consistent analytical basis.
Keep Models Aligned with Operations
Over time, the assumptions used to develop a model may no longer reflect the operating system.
We review changes in equipment performance, production requirements, operating rules and available data, updating and validating the model where appropriate. This helps prevent outdated assumptions from influencing important decisions and extends the useful life of the original modelling investment.
