Optivation is a scientifically embedded consultancy company that develops advanced custom made optimization and business analytics systems. Optivation's main expertise is fast optimization software for automated containership stowage planning. We bluntly declare ourselves internationally leading in this field since our work builds directly on leading algorithmic approaches developed during more than 7 years of focused research on stowage planning at the Decision Optimization Lab at the IT University of Copenhagen. We also have developed advanced data mining software for predicting customer behavior from transactional data in the retail and logistics business and expect cargo forecasting to be a major topic in the future. Our approach is to establish confident engagement in co-operation with people at customer and develop and test new technologies for significant improvement of business performance. We have access to internationally leading experts through our scientific network and can address challenging business problems as co-funded research projects.
