Scenarioplay Use Case - Fuel Price Shock in a Logistic Company

DESIGNATION -Β Data Design with Business Relevance

Scenarioplay Overview

Understanding business: What will happen to a logistic business, if the fuel price increases?


This was the initial question for building this scenario. We were interested in calculating a cash flow impact under certain input conditions like number of trucks, OPEX etc. to see how the monthly liquity flow changes comparing one scenario A to another scenario B.Β

Visual analytics instead of Excel: This scenario cash planning is based on two different model types: first you have a linear integrationΒ with the fuel price as driving factor and second a buffer model which is represented by the number of trucks and the cash amount.Β
