“To be honest, I wasn’t sure if it was possible to accurately model these lines and, as a company, we were preparing to spend large sums of money in an attempt prevent this operation. [Emerson] put a huge effort into solving this problem and I am very happy to report that they figured out how to model these complex operations in a robust way with an astonishing amount of accuracy. The results exceeded my most optimistic expectations!”
