Claude query: confirm, both sequential optimization and tactical design use fixed forecasts

Confirmed — that’s an accurate characterization, and Optilogic’s own FAQ draws exactly this line.

The core split: Optimization finds the best answer given your assumptions, while Simulation stress-tests that answer in a realistic, probabilistic environment covering demand fluctuations, lead time uncertainty, and supplier disruptions.

Both Sequential Optimization and Tactical Design sit on the optimization side of that split (they run on Cosmic Frog’s optimization engine, “Neo”),
