Scope of Functions
Get to know the possibilities of SimVSM
SimVSM provides you with a comprehensive tool that combines classic value stream analysis with the advantages of digitalisation. The app helps you to clearly model and analyse production and logistics processes and evaluate them using integrated simulations.
Whether in the office, on the shop floor or directly on site at the process, SimVSM enables you to design your value streams in a consistent, practical and efficient manner.

The short video tutorials on this page provide an overview of the most important functions of SimVSM – from project management and modelling to simulation. If you would like to learn more about practical applications, we recommend our webinars and training courses. See for yourself how SimVSM efficiently combines value stream analysis and process simulation.

SimVSM licensing model
SimVSM is available as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and for local installation.
The application can be operated entirely in the cloud or—as is common for most corporate customers—installed locally on your own infrastructure. In both cases, it can be used via a web browser as well as on tablets and smartphones.
Updates and maintenance are performed automatically with the SaaS version; for local installations, they are performed after consultation with the IT environment. This allows you to choose the model that best suits your requirements and security guidelines.
