aPriori Technologies vs. Portus Platform

From my experience aPriori is a classical algorithm in data mining. It is used for mining frequent itemsets and relevant association rules. Also, it is devised to operate on a database containing a lot of transactions, for instance, items brought by customers in a store. Whereas aPriori requires high computation if the itemsets are very large and the minimum support is kept very low and the entire database needs to be scanned.

• Give visibility to cost really quickly
• Be able to benchmark other regions of the world or other process/equipment that can be used to do the same part
• Easily visualize the Geometric Cost Drivers that are more important
• GIve some hints on where to work to get the cost down

Incentivized

• Dynamic itemset counting technique can add new candidate itemsets at any marked start point of the database during the scanning of the database.
• The transaction reduction method reduces the number of transactions scanned in interactions. The transactions which do not contain frequent items are marked removed.
• The sampling method picks a random sample from the database for frequent itemset. It may be possible to lose a global frequent itemset.

Incentivized

• Not to Lose the Position of Product Cost Management Importance
• Make Costing Simple and Ease
• Traceablitlity of Previous Costed
• Helps Design Engineers to actually look for the Which Feature contributes for the Most Cycle Time and help Design Engineers to re-design the CAD Model and look for the changes in the Cycle Time and the Machining parameters
• Interactive Cost Insight

Rating is due to below exciting factors which one can feel when we use aPriori;

• Cost engineer need to know "What the part "Should" cost?" instantly.
• One need to understand the cost in various Process group such as casting, forging, machining, additive manufacturing,etc...
• One need to have comparison of various process group in single window
• Ease of finding cost for various location for various currency in single platform

Overall, I'm generally satisfied with the response and results that I get from aPriori support. They are intuitive, and try to understand what it is I'm trying to do, or how the problem is affecting me or my organization. They also are very available across the globe, as my team is located in multiple regions.

aPriori team helped a lot for the implementation, as they were on remote and helping for the file run and implementing the same on remote. aPriori team extrended full support for the implementation resolving the bottleneck and bugs if any during installing the software's also, they provide professional services in order to resolve some technical issue

Currently, we have not evaluated any other software since aPriori gives most of the things that we want. The kind of reports it gives has enormous information which is used in the discussions & for concrete decisions. Mostly the cost outliers are easy to identify if we take the parts of a particular supplier. The analysis can be used to provide insight for resourcing etc., which gives good savings for the company.

• It helps decrease our time to market. So more projects are done than before.
• Being quick to give a quote to a customer is a business advantage. Customers know they can rely on Soucy to get a quick quote. First in gets the business.
• No time spent on concepts that are too expensive anyway!
