Overview
What-If Scenarios lets you experiment with process changes in a safe sandbox before committing real resources. Duplicate your current-state map, adjust cycle times, remove steps, combine operations, or change resource allocations — then instantly see the impact on lead time, PCE, and cost. Compare multiple scenarios side by side to find the optimal future state. It turns gut-feel improvement ideas into data-backed decisions.
Why What-If Scenarios?
Three reasons teams choose this tool

Smart Suggestions
The approval step at position 3 has a cycle time of 12.3 min with 67% wait time. Automating with rule-based approval could eliminate 80% of the wait.
Two consecutive inspection steps could be merged into a single quality gate, reducing handoff waste and duplicate setup time.
