If you have built a STEM model which demonstrates the
viability of a business case, then clearly it is desirable to be able to
circulate the native input assumptions and results to colleagues, not just to
disseminate the conclusions, but just as importantly, to gain credibility for
the results and the underlying methodology. The STEM Results Program is
purpose built for exploring the results of a STEM model, and this functionality
can be readily shared by using the standard STEM demo pack (extra copies of
which can be ordered from Implied Logic as required).
If you first run your model, and then distribute both inputs
and results (.DTL, .ICP,
.DTM and .SMR files), then
your colleagues will be able to use the demo Editor to explore the model
assumptions and the demo Results program to browse the results. This is an
effective way to share a read-only model. However, in the absence of the
authorised software or a dongle, non-licensees will not be able to re-run such
a model after making any changes to the inputs.
