Operational Planning & Optimisation Tool for Thames Water

Thames Water required a decision support planning tool that would support the end-to-end planning of their sludge management and treatment activities. They needed to be able to plan from short-term daily activities up to medium-term monthly / quarterly operational decisions. A principle requirement was to manage all activities from one holistic solution which was capable of planning and optimising the entire business process. The ability to see how short-term decisions impacted on the requirements for longer term investment, and vice versa, was a key requirement for Thames Water.
