I am evaluating this software to determine if it would help with our current scheduling woes.  The engineering group is where I am starting the modeling process.  I have attached a document that lays out the problem and some of the constraints that exist.  Would you be better off to model individual engineers as individual servers or as individual resources with one engineering server?  Is my modeling need too complicated?  

I am quite new to this software but I can see the upside to the methodology employed by the software and the potential to model our complete manufacturing facility.

Hi Shane,

With the process you described it is very possible, I would suggest the engineers as servers and the orders as entities.

The scale of your project might however not justify the means, Simio is more than capable, however I would not purchase it just for this application (if you already have it it would be a great project). 

 

Regards,

Willem
