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."
