Abstract
The Combined Simulation Approach (CSA) is a way to evaluate risks and address potential unforeseen problems
in a more interactive way than what is often observed in practice in companies or sectors. The approach is based
on a combination of scenario analysis and discrete-event computer simulation with which the strategies can be
continuously developed. The contribution of this paper is to narrow the knowledge gap between strategic, tactical
and operational levels of an organization. The paper demonstrates howit is possible towork proactivelywith
both the breadth and depth of strategies using a Danish knowledge intensive company as an example.
