Lisa Spiden, CEO and founder of Workforce Analytics, underlines the importance of having the right people in the right place at the right time. "With Gurobi, we bring our clients into the present, using real-time data and predictive modeling, rather than relying solely on historical data," she said.

The partnership has empowered businesses across various industries—including disability services, aged care, and fast food, among others—to move away from manual, gut-feeling decisions and embrace data-driven strategies that lead to improved operational efficiency and sales.
Spiden is keen on demonstrating the true value of optimization to their clients and bringing clarity around its powerful capabilities beyond the academic sphere. She said, "We feel we can work with Gurobi to change the perception of this being purely academic and successfully break into the commercial space."

Archer® Proves Purpose-Built AI Beats General-Purpose LLMs on Regulatory Change Management: 95% Verified Accuracy, 80x Faster, 92% Lower Cost30.6.2026 17:13:00 EEST | Press release
For enterprises deploying AI in compliance, a wrong date is a missed deadline. The more dangerous failure is a wrong answer the model returns with high confidence, one that flows silently into a compliance calendar and is only discovered after the window has passed. Archer® today released results showing purpose-built AI beats a general-purpose large language model (LLM) on regulatory work, and it’s not close. This head-to-head test compared Archer’s purpose-built, vertical-specific AI and proprietary data sets against a leading general-purpose LLM, on a core compliance task: determining the publication, effective and comment-close dates of regulatory documents across six jurisdictions. General-purpose models are a genuine breakthrough, and this is no referendum on their quality. The question Archer set out to answer is narrower and more practical: what it takes to make a specific, high-stakes determination reliable, fast and affordable at scale. A vertical, domain-focused process, gro
