Interactive process simulation
See at-a-glance overviews of simulated models, simulation status and evaluations in the form of statistical tables and diagrams. Manage simulation runs via a toolbar, a menu or a simple keystroke. You can start, pause and stop simulation runs, regulate process speed and execute the simulation step-by-step. While the simulation is running, you can animate model objects and see the resulting attributes, which are updated continuously for each object.
Data-driven statistics
Collect a wealth of statistics during a simulation, and then use these stats to address your analysis needs. For example:
- Function stats tell you the number of executions and dynamic wait times
- Process stats display the number of completed process instances and throughput times
Easy-to-understand diagrams
Statistics are presented in easy-to-understand pie charts, bar charts and line graphs.
Integrated ARIS repository
No unnecessary modeling effort is required. ARIS Simulation uses process designs and data—such as cost, times and volumes—from the central ARIS repository. Because the tool is fully integrated into ARIS Enterprise, processes captured by ARIS provide the baseline data for simulating business processes.
L-Sim® simulation engine
ARIS Simulation deploys the L-Sim simulation engine from the Lanner Group, a leading provider of simulation software. ARIS Simulation is an extension for ARIS Enterprise. No additional software is required, and there are no imports or exports.
Simulate EPC or BPMN™ models
With ARIS Simulation, you can analyze Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) across your Event-driven Process Chain (EPC) or Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN™) models to identify bottlenecks. KPIs include:
- Process throughput times
- Dynamic wait times (bottlenecks)
- Organizational center utilization and cost rates
Use this information to create reports and charts for both qualitative and quantitative analyses.
Analyze key performance indicators (KPIs) across your Event-driven Process Chain (EPC) or Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN™) models to identify bottlenecks.
Simulate processes to try out different resource profiles, change throughput rates or make changes to the process and quickly view the likely impact
Additional capabilities
Process risk simulation
Deal with operational risks in unprecedented ways. Simulation has been used intensively for classic market and credit risk scenarios. It can also be used to identify operational risks along a process chain. You can analyze dependencies between business processes, risks and controls.
Using the standard modeling conventions, you can incorporate risk and control objects into the process models in question. Then, you can add information to further define risk occurrence probabilities as well as damage distribution values, control effectiveness, sample sizes and damage-reduction values.
Support for resource planning & deployment
You can create organizational charts and further break out human resources by the level of individual roles or employees involved in a process.
In addition, you can change various attributes of the modeling objects—which is especially useful when specifying the time and cost of a function, defining process execution frequencies and deploying different resource allocation strategies.
