Overview: Optimization models help managers make smarter decisions by finding improvements they couldn't find on their own. This comprehensive overview explains how optimization is used to improve planning and scheduling decisions, lower costs, provide better service, reduce risk, and maximize profitability. It describes the motivation for developing optimization models and articulates their business value. The paper also walks through the modeling process and illustrates concepts with recent real-world examples. The discussion continues with the use of what-if and scenario analyses to gain more value from optimization models, wrapping up with a discussion of current software technologies.
