Futura Simulations fly high
In February, Powersim’s manpower simulation solutions partner, Futura Simulations, sponsored the Military Flying Training 2007 conference in London. Leading military forces and training providers use Futura Simulations to trial complex training systems, manpower strategies and capability-migration programmes in the safety of a desktop simulation. Futura Simulations has accepted an invitation to speak at this year’s ITEC conference in Köln, Germany on the topic of Trained Output Assurance: optimising training-pipeline performance through visual simulations. More information is available from Futura Simulations on +44 (0) 1483 401 800.
Powersim led managers enrolled in the UCL ‘Interdisciplinary Management of Projects’ MSc course in London as part of the ‘Corporate Governance’ module. In this exciting new engagement Powersim challenged participants to consider ways to capture concensus among a variety of stakeholders when planning and managing large, complex projects. Existing project management practices tackle the planning of projects without necessarily engaging all stakeholders in both client and contracting parties, in order to best manage cross-disciplinary expectations. By modelling and simulating aspects outside of the current project management spectrum the intertwined and complex intangibles can be drawn out and discussed to ensure cross-disciplinary concensus in decision-making.
