Adaptive Planning at National Grid
Turning away from fossil fuels to sustainable energy is a complex journey. BMA helped National Grid look at thousands of potential scenarios every week to successfully identify the optimal roadmap to hydrogen.
BMA (Business Modelling Applications) is a UK-based technology company. Our Decision Intelligence software platform, Decisio™, helps Clients redefine the way they tackle the decisions that matter most.
Founded in 2013, our vision was to develop technology that could take advantage of the oncoming advances in both Advanced Analytics and Data Science, with the increasingly accessible processing power enabled through the cloud.
We recognised that the world is increasingly Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) and that many of today’s significant global challenges are the result of the limitations of decision-making processes in the past. The same is applicable for once successful companies that have rapidly accelerated into decline. Too often complex problems have been approached with siloed thinking and with the scales tipped towards human bias and pre-judgement as opposed to data driven determination.
“Companies, communities and even countries continue to tackle complex challenges using siloed decision-making processes constrained by human bias. When the best of human intuition and experience is effectively combined with the raw processing power of technology a Sustainable future becomes a reality.”
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them”
Albert Einstein
Our technology changes this. It enables Clients to make more holistic, rapid, and connected decisions. It simultaneously democratises the use of AI-assisted Analytics across the entire organisation, empowering the ‘non-expert’ to drive unprecedented levels of Enterprise value. Our software bridges the disconnect between strategic and operational decision-making, allowing Customers to better balance short-term performance with long term Sustainability.
The Decisio™ platform has been adopted by a range of clients and industries but is particularly suited to asset-intensive, energy-intensive and risk-intensive businesses. We help these Clients navigate their profitable transition to a resilient, low-carbon business model, using our proven technology.

Adaptive Planning at National Grid
Turning away from fossil fuels to sustainable energy is a complex journey. BMA helped National Grid look at thousands of potential scenarios every week to successfully identify the optimal roadmap to hydrogen.
Accelerating decarbonisation: A roadmap to net zero
What if we could decarbonise by 2040, or sooner? The transition to net zero demands an integrated response. With vast networks of existing asset infrastructure needing to be re-purposed, BMA’s new technologies are being introduced to the systems of many asset-intensive companies and speeding up the process.
Sustainably reducing leakage and managing water
How will water companies deliver their leakage targets of today whilst building resilience for the future? Using BMA technology, water companies are able to build models to visualise, analyse and optimise complex asset systems and understand the true complexity of the problem.
