Optimisation Algorithms

In complex systems, finding the best solution is rarely straightforward. Our expertise in optimisation algorithms enables businesses to solve high-dimensional, constrained, and computationally challenging problems efficiently and reliably.

We specialise in both classical and modern metaheuristic techniques, with deep experience implementing genetic algorithms, ant colony optimisation, and hybrid approaches to optimise resource allocation, routing, scheduling, and operational decision-making.


What We Do

Our optimisation work is applied wherever systems face combinatorial complexity, competing objectives, or constrained resources, including:

  • Resource Scheduling & Allocation
    Optimising staff rotas, machine usage, or project timelines to maximise efficiency and reduce costs.
  • Routing & Logistics
    Finding near-optimal paths for vehicles, vessels, or assets across dynamic networks.
  • Operational Planning
    Improving throughput, capacity, or performance in complex systems with multiple constraints.
  • Risk-Aware Optimisation
    Balancing trade-offs between performance, cost, and operational risk.
  • Custom Objective Functions
    Designing fitness or scoring functions tailored to client-specific KPIs and constraints.

Techniques & Approaches

We combine rigorous algorithmic knowledge with pragmatic engineering to deliver solutions that work in the real world:

  • Genetic Algorithms (GA)
    Simulating evolution to explore large solution spaces, with mutation, crossover, and selection tuned for practical optimisation problems.
  • Ant Colony Optimisation (ACO)
    Mimicking the collective behaviour of ants to solve routing, scheduling, and network optimisation challenges.
  • Hybrid & Custom Heuristics
    Combining multiple techniques or augmenting metaheuristics with domain knowledge to improve convergence, robustness, and scalability.
  • Constraint Handling & Multi-Objective Optimisation
    Managing real-world limitations and trade-offs while finding near-optimal solutions.
  • Simulation-Driven Optimisation
    Integrating optimisation with simulations to model uncertainty, stochastic processes, or complex system interactions.

What We Deliver

Our optimisation solutions are designed to produce actionable results that can be deployed operationally:

  • High-performance algorithmic engines capable of handling complex problem spaces
  • Modular, reusable frameworks for evolving optimisation scenarios
  • Real-world integration with operational software, decision-support systems, and dashboards
  • Transparent, auditable results with visualisation and reporting of optimisation outcomes
  • Scalable solutions that perform under realistic data volumes and constraints

Our Approach

We approach optimisation as a practical engineering challenge, not just a mathematical exercise. That means:

  • Understanding the domain, objectives, and constraints in depth
  • Selecting and tuning algorithms to balance speed, quality, and resource usage
  • Combining multiple methods when necessary to handle complex or dynamic systems
  • Delivering solutions that integrate seamlessly with client workflows and software

Whether improving logistics for offshore operations, optimising production schedules, or solving custom combinatorial problems, we turn advanced algorithms into real-world impact.
