Discrete-event Simulation Software Decision Support in the Venezuelan Oil Industry


Abstract:

A successful technological transfer requires a proven manpower and information input of the resources and needs of the recipient organization. Applying the above framework to the logistics area of the petroleum industry, the use of discrete-event simulation software is required to properly simulate these systems. This kind of software has a wide market demand, which means that a selection process is necessary. This research proposes an evaluation and selection process of the IT from a technological viewpoint, specifically concentrating on the discrete-event simulation software that is going to be acquired by the Venezuelan oil industry. The applicability of the Systemic Quality Model-SQMO+ was successfully run in the evaluation of the discrete-event simulation software, this evaluation showed that three commercial software complied with the minimum technical requirements established in this research. This process enabled the choice of the best software from a technological standpoint.
