Solving this very rich routing problem required an optimization method that can handle many different constraints: being able to do that with a high-level declarative language like Hexaly Modeler made this task much easier. Hexaly Optimizer’s very quick modeling and solving times allowed us to run what-if analysis to inform potential fleet management decisions. Being able to solve the problem very quickly also enabled us to handle the stochastic nature of the problem with ease, running hundreds of scenarios in just a few minutes.
The optimization engine helps us complete our patient transport missions more efficiently. Not only does it provide excellent quality schedules, but it also saves us a lot of time that we can then dedicate to other high-value-added tasks. It even helps us carry out tactical reasoning and better plan our resource management in the medium term.
Creating a bridge between Model-Based Systems Engineering techniques and Operations research required an optimization solver combining accessibility and performance. Hexaly Optimizer was a great choice in this context: thanks to its natural mathematical formalism and fast transparent algorithms it is a strong support for the elaboration of optimized system architectures against multi-perspective constraints. I warmly thank the Hexaly team for its precious help regarding the constraints implementation.
Your services were a crucial help for our project. We have total confidence in Julien, who, over the years, continues to impress me with his work quality, versatility, and professionalism! True added value and innovative technology.
We were looking for a powerful optimization solver for our Vehicle Routing project. We came across Hexaly Optimizer, which could handle large-scale problems and find high-quality solutions on Vehicle Routing Problems (VRP). Working with the team's Hexaly optimization experts on the project is our pleasure.
This is the perfect example of a fruitful technological partnership serving our branches, people, and clients. Our teams at Caisse d'Epargne worked together with Hexaly to build a new optimization engine to solve our credit optimization problems. The resulting solution, in production since 2016, is more generic, more scalable, and easier to maintain, but also much fastest, with just a few seconds of running time to get optimal solutions.
Hexaly was first in mind, given our long-standing relationship and their recognized expertise in operational research, when we wanted to quantify our resilience to COVID-19. Within two weeks of our initial brief, Hexaly provided us with an optimization tool that was further customized, demonstrating excellent client care with prompt responses to requests. I warmly commend Hexaly for fostering an outstanding working relationship and delivering advanced numerical solutions: they are formidable!
I have worked with Hexaly Optimizer to solve several large-scale optimization projects in highly dynamic environments, where Hexaly Optimizer has proven instrumental in finding high-quality solutions within minutes to satisfy the needs for dynamic re-planning. I have found that the unique expressiveness of Hexaly’s modeling API and the highly knowledgeable support team makes Hexaly my go-to choice for complex optimization problems.
Optiretail designs an optimal Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) supply chain, minimizing the total project cost from sourcing to delivery. This powerful digital solution based on Hexaly Optimizer allows ENGIE to reduce the cost of LNG distribution by up to 15% and foster the development of new uses for LNG.
Preparing Fret SNCF train drivers’ schedules is a complex task involving many operational and regulatory constraints. To solve this highly combinatorial problem, we sought a solver capable of handling this complexity and providing high-quality solutions in short running times. Hexaly Optimizer was the best solver on the market for this task. It now allows us to compute new optimized plans every year and to adapt these schedules regularly to meet new requirements.
The optimization engine helps me every day to dispatch our customer orders. On top of saving me a lot of time that I can dedicate to other high-value-added tasks, it is exciting to discover each day how the routes can be optimized and contribute to sustainable solutions for construction site soils.

Hexaly Optimizer has been tested and confirmed by our team as the best GLOBAL solver available on the market. With this optimizer and innovative approaches, the Maxflow app has a superior optimization capability for its automated workflows.
We sought an optimizer to solve our large out-of-home media planning problems. After a benchmark against CPLEX, Hexaly Optimizer proved to be the best-performing solver; it could handle large-scale problems and find high-quality solutions in minutes. It enabled us to deploy our media planning solution at Ocean Outdoor, a UK premium DOOH operator. The ultra-competitive pricing they offered us allowed us to build a long-term partnership.
The innovative features of Hexaly Optimizer and its unique modeling formalism have allowed us to solve numerous problems for which we could not find satisfying solutions with MIP solvers. Hexaly Optimizer’s performance greatly surpasses our expectations on the TSP, matching, and facility location problems we’re working on. In one year, we have optimized € 160 million with an average gain of 12%. Nikolas's reactive and precise support has greatly helped us move forward quickly on our projects.
We developed the Pasco supply chain optimization model using Hexaly Optimizer within a few days of work. Hexaly Optimizer provides outstanding solutions, as considered by Pasco planners, in just a few minutes of running times, while the number of variables is gigantic (tens of millions). We could not imagine such a feat being possible initially since state-of-the-art MIP solvers like CPLEX, Xpress, and Gurobi could not tackle the problem in hours. Now we know that using Hexaly, it's possible!
This journey started more than two years ago. Thanks to the excellent support provided by the Hexaly team, POSAM won the project in a very competitive international tender in which many of the big names in supply chain optimization participated. Thank you again for all the effort that makes Hexaly Optimizer such a technically brilliant product and for your excellent support.
We use Hexaly Optimizer for several optimization problems, including scheduling door manufacturing in car factories and optimizing empty packaging return flows. What we appreciate most is the incomparable ease of modeling provided by Hexaly formalism. Besides, exchanging with the Hexaly team is always fruitful and pleasant.
Customers with automatic meter reading terminals, as well as customers without automatic meter reading terminals, can predict the remaining amount of gas, and AI derives a composite delivery plan. Also, the automatic formulation of delivery routes has the scalability to collect a variety of data, and we expect that AI will enable even more efficient delivery operations.
Hexaly Optimizer is a great tool in the area of optimization. It provides fast and efficient optimal solutions, while being flexible and easy to use. It also delivered excellent results for our challenges and made a significant contribution to optimizing our delivery operations. Thank you for your excellent performance and cooperation.
We sincerely welcome the provision of LP gas delivery optimization service ‘Routify’ by SoftBank. We strongly felt the need for efficient delivery operations and securing personnel to carry out the tasks. SoftBank's Routify uses AI to predict the amount of remaining gas and automatically formulate delivery plans. I have high hopes for digital transformation through the expansion of services that utilize big data.
We optimize our channels revenues thanks to Hexaly. Versatile, fast, and scalable, it helps us solve problems involving millions of decision variables in minutes. We estimate the resulting gains at up to 2% of the turnover per year. Beyond, the Hexaly team quickly acquired a deep understanding of the TV and advertising business, thus becoming a partner of choice. They bring us powerful software solutions but also precious quantitative insights helping TF1 make the right strategic decisions.
Before introducing the shipment management application, the problem of mixing and packing a large number of raw materials was managed by experts in Excel. Today, thanks to Hexaly Optimizer, the application provides high-quality solutions quickly. This has allowed us to save money while reducing work time and dependence on skilled workers. It is a significant step in the digital transformation of our department.
Developing and deploying a tool like Smart Agri took less than three years.
