SCModeling

Run a supply-chain simulation on a bundled SCModeling sample model (sdi-db). Returns metrics, inventory time-series, orders, shipments, routing and BOM. ANTI-FABRICATION: the returned numbers come from a real discrete-event simulation run on the sc-sim engine. Quote them VERBATIM in your reply. Do not round, estimate, average, or compute derived figures from training-data recall. If the user asks

List the bundled SCModeling sample supply-chain models. Returns a catalog with each model's id and a short description. Use this before run_simulation to know which model_id values are valid.

Reference guide to supply-chain simulation concepts: ordering policies, BOM, FDD formulas, event-driven simulation. Pure static text — no engine call, deterministic output. Use this when the user asks a conceptual 'how does this work' question rather than asking for a number.

Reference text on supply-chain network optimization — mixed-integer programming (MIP), the structure of decision variables and constraints, the objective function for landed-cost minimization, and the common problem classes (facility selection, sourcing, flow constraints, multi-period, BOM/production, multi-objective). Also covers when to reach for optimization vs simulation. Pure static text — no

Reference text on greenfield analysis — clean-slate facility-location math. Covers the weighted center-of-gravity (Weber) formulation, Weiszfeld's iterative algorithm, Lloyd's-style alternating location-allocation for N facilities, service constraints (% demand vs % customers within a distance band), and the inverse problem of solving for minimum N. Also covers when to use greenfield vs facility s

Reference text on supply-chain simulation — how a discrete-event model of a network behaves through time. Covers event-driven execution (future-event list, the consume / check-inventory / place-order / fill / ship / deliver vocabulary), why inventory POSITION rather than on-hand stock drives reordering, which KPIs the engine reports versus which this site derives from the raw order and shipment re

List the bundled SCModeling optimization demos. Returns id + label + one-line summary for each (Tariff, Coffee Co-pack, SSO Basic). Use this before describe_opt_demo or get_opt_result to know which demo_id values are valid. All demos are precomputed sample-only fixtures — for optimization on real client data, the SCModeling desktop tool is the product.

Full detail on one optimization demo — controls, available scenario keys, sites, fixed parameters, citations, and the key finding the demo illustrates. Use this before get_opt_result to know what scenario_key values are accepted.

Get the precomputed result for one scenario of an optimization demo. Returns the verbatim engine output JSON (AMOS for tariff/coffee, SSO output for sso-basic) including the optimal sourcing/production/transport decisions, costs, and any open/close facility variables. ANTI-FABRICATION: every numeric result is verbatim from the optimization engine that ran offline — quote them in your reply, do not

List the bundled SCModeling greenfield demos. Returns id + label + one-line summary. Currently one demo (US, 189 customer points). Use this before describe_greenfield_demo or get_greenfield_result.

Full detail on one greenfield demo — region, customer count, available dc_count values, and the score-curve elbow finding. Use this before get_greenfield_result to know what dc_count values are precomputed.

Get the precomputed result for one DC count of a greenfield demo. Returns sited DCs (lat/lon + city/state, nearest-city snapped), customer-to-DC assignments, and the score for that DC count. ANTI-FABRICATION: every result is verbatim engine output from greenfield-cli — quote them in your reply, do not round or fabricate cities.
