Fork & Compare Studies

After having designed and assessed a project, the user can fork a study to try a slightly different design and check if this improve the overall results.

For example, a user may wish to test a different network configuration in Energy Delivery including the cable installation activities in the Logistics and Marine Operations tool. They would then fork after Energy Transformation, and create new entities in subsequent modules, as shown below.
