Linear Programming Solver (LPS)

Training Description

The Linear Programming Solver (LPS) is a Python-based plugin integrated in the o9 Platform. It is synonymous with SCS (Supply Chain Solver) for business needs and uses the linear programming formulation, whereas SCS is a heuristics solver.

This 2-day workshop provides a comprehensive understanding of the functional and configurational aspects of the o9 Linear Programming Solver (LPS). Through hands-on user stories, participants will explore various solver optimization concepts, learn how the LP solver addresses these concepts, and gain familiarity with the o9 platform.

Prerequisite

The participants must be familiar with the o9 Platform and its features. To assess familiarity, the participant must meet the following prerequisites:

Instructor-Led Session:

• o9 Supply Planning Reference Product – Technical Workshop for Configurators
• o9 Supply Planning Reference Product – Functional Workshop

o9 Academy Programs:

• Functional Insights into Supply Planning Core Solution Building Blocks
• Technical Deep Dive into Supply Planning Core Solution Building Blocks

Relevant Course

Participants of this workshop are encouraged to take the following courses on o9 Academy:

• LP Solver – Optimization & Troubleshooting
