Organizations need to do more with less, and act faster than ever before

To be successful, top leaders are relying on a new breed of tools to ensure they meet their objectives.

Decision Engineering
A comprehensive methodology and software suite built to address the world’s next challenge: effective decision making in complex environments

The Complexity Problem
Assessing the impact of decisions is exceedingly difficult in complex systems.
Hard to manage in-flight changes
Too many interdependent factors.
Hard to enforce effective governance/oversight.
Not enough time
External change happens faster than the time needed to assess the impacts of that change.
Time frames under competitive pressure cannot support “Ready, aim, fire”

Challenges
How can a complex system be represented in a way that facilitates management understanding and organisational alignment, and yet still retains the complexity of the system’s behaviour?
Can sufficient data about complex systems be gathered, and to the level of accuracy needed, to support decisions?

Our Solution
Utilise proven best practices andtechniques from disciplines that have faced similar complexity challenges
Manage complexity by:
Identifying simple subsystems
Modelling simple subsystems and interactions between them.

Our Solution

Visual language
Graphically represent objects and all interdependencies.
Aligns all participants by providing tangible, visual representation and common vocabulary.
Desktop simulation environment
Direct integration to data sources.
Transparent, in-depth “what-if” analysis.

“Essential to the next generation of business intelligence systems is the ability to visualize not just the data used to support decisions, but also the decisions themselves. Together, Lorien and Mark have created the world’s first decision modeling methodology and software, which meets this essential need in both the commercial and nonprofit worlds.”
-Lynn Langit, Microsoft Developer Evangelist and author of the book Smart Business Intelligence Solutions with SQL Server 2008

"In an age of global complexity, the time for making decisions is ever-shrinking, and the cost of bad choices too great to tolerate. Quantellia created a tool for making the right decisions in this environment.”
-Guy Pfeffermann, former Chief Economist of the International Finance Corporation (World Bank); Founder and CEO of the Global Business School Network (www.gbsnonline.org).

“Anyone facing complex decisions with many participants and stakeholders, mounds of data, and limited resources to address the decision-making process, should look closer at visualization tools such as Quantellia’s offering. Visualized decision support—decision engineering—is fast becoming a key part of effective business management.”
-Karl Whitelock, Director Strategy – OSS/BSS, Stratecast, a Division of Frost and Sullivan (www.frost.com).
