Observation & Control Module

The DeSASim® Observation & Control Module (OCM) is a compact, personal application that incorporates much of the capability of the full DeSASim Business Explorer.  It's designed to activate and interact with pre-defined Living Blueprints®, which describe real or hypothetical businesses. 

The OCM is a convenient, cost-effective and highly realistic performance demonstrator.  Designed with a game-like interface, it's easy for an organization to equip personnel with this "portable" virtual business environment for their own business or other businesses "of interest".  The OCM is ideal for a wide range of business users - from senior executives to persons just entering or learning about the business world. 

Anyone whose assignment routinely requires them to have a clear understanding of how their business operates - particularly under rapidly changing circumstances - will find the OCM an indispensable companion. When changes occur, when opportunities present themselves, the OCM is there to demonstrate the likely effect on financial and operational performance.

Each OCM includes 2 demonstration Living Blueprints.  Although these Living Blueprints are general in nature, they represent actual classes of business to include:

1) a "Standard Business" example based upon a distribution and manufacturing operation consisting of many different products, and

2) a "Value-Chain" configuration of a series of businesses that are dependent on each other for success.  This is a unique offering of the DeSASim system and provides a rare and vitally important insight into the realities of doing business.

For users who develop their own Living Blueprints or who have DeSA build Blueprints for them, user-designed Blueprints will operate in the OCM environment exactly the same way as do the demonstration Blueprints. This means that a typical user can have a series of up-to-date versions of their own business as well as a collection of "interesting" types of different businesses to game and explore ... to "go outside the box".

The OCM is an integral part of the DeSASim Business Explorer; it is not offered separately.
