Introduction
Do any of the following apply to you or your organization?
- I spend too much time running analysis tools that require me to edit input and output files to run them.
- I run as many analyses as I can, but the deadline always arrives before I’ve run everything I want to.
- I know we could produce better designs, but there are so many parameters to manipulate, I just don’t know where to start.
- Half of my tools are on UNIX and the other half on Windows. I spend too much time copying files around.
- We produce good results, but the process is a mess. All of our data is spread out across everyone’s computers and is lost the day after a project is complete.
- We always produce designs that meet the performance specification, but now we’re being asked to meet risk, schedule, and cost specifications too.
If you find yourself saying, "There has to be a better way!" then this white paper is for you. Read on to learn how the Phoenix Suite can help address your situation.
The Design Process
Engineers and analysts are continually faced with multiple design decisions. Success or failure of their organizations is often based on who can make the best choices in the shortest amount of time. A good choice wins a proposal, results in a market leading product, and generates corporate success. To make these choices, multiple "what if" questions must be formulated and answered by executing one or more analysis tools potentially 100's or 1000's of times. The complexity of this problem grows exponentially as the number of tools and associated experts expands. Furthermore, there is a growing traceability requirement to document and be able to justify past decisions.
