In this session, we introduce the fundamentals of NIO optimization models in Cosmic Frog. You'll learn how NIO evaluates millions of possible supply chain configurations to find the least-cost or most profitable way to meet customer demand while respecting every constraint in your network. Instead of manually analyzing trade-offs, NIO automatically determines the optimal combination of suppliers, manufacturing sites, and distribution centers to fulfill orders.
In this episode, we explore two powerful pre-run validation tools in Cosmic Frog: the Model Assistant and the Integrity Checker. Instead of running your entire model, waiting for results, and then diagnosing issues, you can catch data errors in just minutes before hitting "run." The Model Assistant flags missing essential information—like un-geocoded locations or absent production policies—while the Integrity Checker goes deeper, identifying numeric issues, unit of measure mismatches, master data references that don't exist, and data type conflicts.
In this episode, we dive into scenario building in Cosmic Frog—the heart of network optimization testing. Instead of manually reconfiguring your entire model for each "what if" analysis, you create modular scenario items that make specific changes to your data. Want to test closing a facility? Doubling demand for a customer? Removing flow constraints to see optimal behavior? Just build a scenario item, assign it to a scenario, and run. Each scenario can combine multiple items, letting you stack changes and test complex configurations in minutes.
