Your one stop shop.

A full-scale, intelligent optimization system. 

AMPL is the foundation for your optimization system. With AMPL, you can also use the world’s most powerful solvers. Each AMPL license comes equipped with all open source solvers, APIs for 6 languages and the ability to deploy on all major platforms.. For all of your optimization needs – All payments maintained through AMPL. All support in one place.

Rapid prototyping and model creation

  • Intuitive language
  • Fast pitch
  • Share your model

By using a high-level representation that demonstrates optimization models in the same ways that people think about them, AMPL promotes rapid development and reliable results.

Connect your data

  • Databases
  • Spreadsheets
  • CSV

Use AMPL’s data handlers to read and write data in the external formats of spreadsheets in .xlsx format, CSV files and databases using ODBC.

Simplify with presolve

AMPL's presolve dramatically reduces a problem's size before sending it to the solver. This makes your solver's task much easier - assisting its own presolve - for a faster result, using less memory.

Connect a solver

  • Commercial
  • Open source
  • Hook your own

To provide the fastest run times and greatest reliability, we offer a selection of top commercial solvers interfaced to AMPL. We provide the same high level of licensing and technical support for these solvers as for the core AMPL product.

API integration

  • Python
  • R
  • C++
  • C#
  • MATLAB
  • JAVA

Our API’s insure that you have a reliable and maintainable implementation as you embed your optimization models into applications.

Maintenance

AMPL’s robust and supportive system provides reliable updating and maintenance as needs change.

Extensive support

  • Phone
  • Email
  • Video Conference

Our development team is committed to supporting you in creating a smooth and fast running optimization model - and our one-on-one support is available with commercial licenses.

The Value of Mathematical Optimization

Mathematical optimization is providing a competitive advantage to companies in many industries on a global level. 

As companies strive to realize the value of their own data, the opportunity to optimize planning and operations has become an imperative in an increasingly competitive environment.

Mathematical optimization, run by AMPL, is used every day to drive revenue growth, maximize the value of investments, reduce costs and position companies of all sizes to win.

Managing Power Grids

One of the biggest challenges in managing a large power grid involves two decisions: When to turn power plants on and off;  and how to transmit power over the grid to meet demand. 

SOLUTION

Through the use of an industry-accepted simulation approach, an advanced analysis methodology combined generation, transmission, loads, fuels, and market economics into one integrated framework to deliver location dependent market indicators, transmission system reliability and market performance indices. 

AMPL x ABB  built an optimization model using a mixed-integer linear solver, involving millions of variables, and tens of thousands of integer variables, with a solve time of 10 minutes. 

IMPACT

With the C++ API, this model can be easily embedded into ABB's GridView product.  This solution was deployed to 30+ companies and hundreds of customer side-users.

Packing Shipments

Young's Plant Farm grows plants of many kinds and sizes, supplying large retailers such as Lowe's and Walmart, by packing plants on special rolling racks that are then loaded on trucks for transport.

GOAL

The goal was to generate good packing plans for a day's orders, without using more racks than needed, and to finish in time to get orders out. 

SOLUTION

AMPL was chosen for its dramatically better solutions and selection of solvers. The optimization solution implemented the use of AMPL model, data, and scripts with minimum problem size of low 100s of thousands of variables and constraints to maximum a problem size of 100 million variables and constraints with a solve time around 10-45 minutes. 

IMPACT

A VBA-modified spreadsheet for data prep and results reporting was developed, and one replenishment specialist uses the took multiple times a day, allowing for far fewer people, faster loading of racks and fewer trucks required.

Assigning Sales Representatives

At Dropbox, over 500 million users upload over 1.2 billion files per day. With tens of thousands of large business customer accounts, and hundreds of sales representatives worldwide, Dropbox has enough to cover most, but not all, of their customers accounts. 

GOAL

Assign each representative a similar number and quality of accounts, while giving priority to assigning higher quality accounts. 

SOLUTION

AMPL was chosen based on its ease of use, speed, reliability, and ability to handle large problems. Integrated data indicated a quality score for each account predicting revenue increase if contact by a representative, and the location of each representative. AMPL supported the maximization of total score of all assigned accounts with no more than a 15% variance between representatives in number and quality of assigned accounts.

IMPACT

With AMPL is embedded in Dropbox's systems, customer data is extracted from Salesforce and customer scores are computed using the scikit-learn Python toolbox. An AMPL script reads the file of score data and results from optimization are written to an Excel spreadsheet.
