This interactive training session will enable users to successfully navigate the Cosmic Frog solution, build and run a basic model with scenarios, and visualize a model and its results in the platform. Sample model input data will be shared, giving attendees the option to follow along with the model, scenario, maps, and analytics dashboard build portions of the training. Attendees who wish to follow along will have an opportunity to create a free Optilogic account during the training if they have not done so beforehand.
From high-level strategy tools that reveal where to open your next DC, to detailed simulations that mirror real-world operations, this episode offers a first look at the technology reshaping supply chain design - and the why behind it all. You’ll see how different engines balance scope and detail, and why choosing the right one can mean the difference between runaway costs and breakthrough efficiency.
This episode is your first guided tour of the apps that form the backbone of every modeling project. You’ll discover where to find free demo models to kickstart your work, how to track and learn from your own runs, and even how to collaborate with your team inside the brand-new Teams Hub.
In this episode, Mert from Optilogic walks you through the essentials of creating, managing, and sharing models inside Cosmic Frog. You’ll learn how to spin up a new model from scratch, use resource library templates to get a head start, and organize your growing collection with filters and search

By now, we’ve all either heard of or personally experienced the impact of the global chip shortage. But how did our automotive supply chain get to this distressed state? In the simplest of terms, what we’re seeing is the result of strong demand with essentially no supply. This concept is nothing new. In fact, supply chains can be specifically built to withstand shocks to the system. However, the pandemic was something that our supply chain simply wasn’t prepared for, and we’re still feeling its impact, two years later. Here’s what you need to know.
The day-to-day at Optilogic is constantly changing (and fun), and the way that users implement our software has continued to surprise and inspire us. In a recent project, we built out an application that combined both demand analytics and optimization for short and long term supply chain development.
With supply chain disruptions on the rise, you’ve probably started to experience drastic shifts in demand, labor shortages and structural concerns. Can your supply chain withstand the next disruption?
Recently the Optilogic team has been running into projects that require simulation or a combination of simulations and advanced solving techniques to properly address customer questions about their supply chains. Here are our thoughts on why simulation is becoming more common as a modeling tool than in years past, and how it can make a major impact on any business.
If you’re looking for a simple way to test your legacy supply chain models in Optilogic Cosmic Frog, we have good news: Our model converter can automate around 70% of the work for you. Converting your legacy models is easy (and free!)
I was listening to Jonathan Wright, Global Managing Partner for Supply Chain Consulting at IBM - discussing with Malcolm Gladwell on his podcast Managing supply chain volatility in the height of the shopping season the latest evolution of supply chain innovation spawned by the global pandemic. And it got me thinking...

In anticipation of Christmas, we thought we’d have a bit of fun and build a Cosmic Frog supply chain design model to help Santa distribute gifts in the U.S., considering service (on-time gift delivery) and risk (to ensure reliability).
Supply chain design software company Optilogic announced the availability of its converter for Coupa Supply Chain Modeler© which automatically converts Coupa Supply Chain Modeler models to cloud-based Optilogic Cosmic Frog™ models.
We’ve pulled together the top 11 Cosmic Frog FAQs that get into the nitty gritty of why Cosmic Frog is your new go-to supply chain design tool. Hop in and take a peek!
Supply chain software company Optilogic announced the general release of its next-generation Cosmic Frog supply chain design software. Cosmic Frog positions Optilogic as a new leader in the supply chain design market by empowering organizations to design supply chain networks in a cloud-native environment.
You've heard over and over again that supply chains must be agile and resilient. Every article, blog post, and podcast stresses the importance of mitigating risk and being able to quickly respond to the disruptions that today's world continues to produce. It’s clear that Risk Management is a hot topic in supply chain management, but companies are often left scratching their heads on how to stay ahead of future risks instead of just reacting to disruptions that can be seen on the horizon.
Many companies are shifting to hyperscale cloud computing for its speed, reduced downtime losses, easier management, and more. Hyperscaling enables users to ask more what-if questions so that they can get more accurate answers, faster. That means more time to actually pinpoint the best strategy that fits your needs, in regards to financials, service, and risk.
