SimHerd, a leader in simulation and decision-support tools for the animal agriculture sector, partnered with Mtech to enhance and modernize their VetFlex solution. By implementing Mtech’s new Application Creator, SimHerd now easily creates custom VetFlex variations for diverse clients in multiple countries, each with unique languages and requirements. This updated solution, developed through close collaboration, empowers SimHerd to quickly deliver tailored VetFlex applications to clients with unmatched efficiency.
SimHerd’s VetFlex app is a streamlined version of their comprehensive SimHerd Expert model, designed to translate complex simulation data into actionable insights. Leveraging the innovative Flex method, VetFlex integrates the extensive results of the Expert model into a simplified algorithm that’s accessible through a user-friendly app. Each element within the app is backed by rigorous simulation studies, offering robust answers to complex questions with just a few clicks.
Mtech’s Application Creator was developed specifically to address SimHerd need for flexibility, scalability, and ease of customization. With this tool, SimHerd can now quickly and effectively produce dynamic VetFlex applications that adapt seamlessly to varying customer demands. Bodil Højlund Nielsen, a PhD consultant and expert from SimHerd, highlighted the impact of Mtech’s solution:
“Mtech has developed an application-building tool for SimHerd that allows us to create tailor-made solutions for our customers. Flexibility in the building process was crucial for SimHerd to ensure we could meet the diverse needs and preferences of our customers.”
One key aspect of the new Application Creator is its focus on the user interface and user experience. Bodil noted,
“Our applications function as decision support tools, where an intuitive and dynamic user interface is of paramount importance. Our customers have received the new applications very positively, regarding both the design and functionalities.”
The modernized user experience allows SimHerd’s clients to engage with their tools more intuitively, accessing complex veterinary insights through an accessible interface that’s adaptable to each client’s specific language or operational environment.
The Application Creator also introduced substantial efficiency gains in SimHerd’s application development process. According to Bodil,
“The AppCreator tool from Mtech enables us to easily build dynamic applications that can be quickly adapted to various settings or languages. Moreover, it provides a smoother integration between our data analysis software and the user interface, saving us significant time in the development of new applications.”
This project was built on close collaboration, and SimHerd has been highly appreciative of Mtech’s commitment to responsive and engaged support throughout the process. Reflecting on the partnership, Bodil shared,
“The collaboration with Mtech has been highly positive, as they have proven to be a responsive and engaged partner throughout the development process.”
With the Application Creator in place, SimHerd can now efficiently deliver customized, high-quality VetFlex applications to meet various customer demands across geographies. Mtech’s collaboration with SimHerd has not only modernized VetFlex but has also paved the way for future innovations in veterinary decision-support tools.
