The latest insights from N-SIDE
Innovative
expert services
The energy transition continues to surface new challenges that require quick adaptation and bold decisions.
With increasing complexity in the energy sector, there’s a growing need for innovative approaches supported by applied mathematics such as optimization and machine learning.
At N-SIDE, we apply advanced analytics throughout all of our professional services. Whether your challenge can be solved by our existing software products or you need our help developing an innovative new approach, our team of mathematicians, energy experts, and developers is ready to help.
Match-integrate-
support
Our match-integrate-support service is a step-by-step approach to facilitate the gradual adoption of our software products while mitigating risk within your organization.
First, we highlight the benefits of N-SIDE products for your specific needs with a feasibility study. Next, we integrate the solution into your IT environment. Finally, we provide professional support and maintenance services with an SLA customized to your needs, giving you peace of mind.
Market design
Our deep experience in the energy sector, coupled with our strong background in applied mathematics, enables our consultants to advise energy stakeholders like system operators and power exchanges on market design.
These services range from state-of-the-art market and algorithm modeling and analysis to quantitative simulations, and cover both long-term and short-term markets for capacity, energy, and balancing.
Co-creation
Do you have a specific use case for the latest machine learning or optimization techniques, but there’s no off-the-shelf solution available?
With our co-creation approach, we foster collaborative innovation with our partners in order to build tailored solutions together.
Leveraging the knowledge of both your business stakeholders and N-SIDE’s energy incubation experts, we’ll work together through ideation and prototyping to arrive at a production-ready application.
Production planning optimization
N-SIDE experts can help you optimize all steps of manufacturing and drug flow (e.g. quantities, timing, allocation) across the clinical supply chain, from formulation to packaging and beyond.
Adapt your manufacturing to real-time events, manage risks, and plan up to 10 years out. If you have scarce resources, a complex manufacturing network, or a large amount of products, this service delivers valuable visibility, control, and waste reduction.
Strategic manufacturing
decisions optimization
Many important decisions need to be made in R&D manufacturing/CMC. Outsourced or in-house manufacturing? Which network should I use? What’s the optimal stability plan? What’s the best way to handle scale-up to Phase 3 and the transition to commercial?
N-SIDE clinical manufacturing specialists will use our software to optimize the most important strategic decisions for your program, delivering important cost savings and waste reduction.
Change management
Transitioning to a digital, data-driven clinical supply chain requires more than technology; it demands adaptation throughout the business.
N-SIDE experts will support your change management journey, starting with a clear vision associated with measurable added value for R&D efficiency.
Keeping this purpose in mind, N-SIDE will help your teams take advantage of advanced analytics to become a truly data-driven organization.
End-to-end program optimization
By optimizing manufacturing for the entire clinical program and optimizing supply for each individual trial, we can typically free up to 50% of the initially planned quantities and accelerate time to commercialization by 2-6 months.
We accomplish this by reducing drug needs at the trial level and limiting manufacturing waste. That enables us to either cancel production lots and re-allocate the resources to new programs, or to re-invest that drug into increased sites and recruitment speed.
SUPPORT
Implementing the Supply App, Production App, or the entire N-SIDE Suite?
Implementation support needs differ depending on your project and internal resources. N-SIDE provides tailor-made implementation and change management services to help you realign your processes and reduce time to value.
N-SIDE offers comprehensive training to onboard your team to our tools and technologies. There are different training tracks for the different roles that will interact with the N-SIDE Suite.
Training sessions are led by N-SIDE experts who bring different concepts to life through hands-on exercises and explanations of case studies.
Discover all training options in our training catalogue
In addition to structured training sessions, N-SIDE experts are also available for one-on-one coaching.
Use this time to ask specific questions about N-SIDE software and apply what you learned in training to your own projects.
“With N-SIDE, we can rely on a team of analytics experts that understand the business, and with whom we can collaborate intensively to prototype and build impactful solutions which can be adopted by our employees.”
