130 E. Kiowa Street, Suite 600, Colorado Springs, CO, 80903
Who We Are
Lexidyne is a recognized leader in applying simulation technology to solve business problems. Founded in 1998, Lexidyne operates as a small consulting firm located in Colorado Springs. Our unique approach utilizes big data analytics and system dynamics to create market virtualizations that can be used to identify, test, and optimize actionable strategies.
We help clients address and answer specific questions about how a complex future is likely to unfold under various scenarios. When developing simulations, we take a robust, multifaceted approach – define the issues, formulate model structure, and collect/analyze associated data. This approach provides clients with a risk-free virtualization to identify leverage points, test various strategies, and understand the return on investment.
Lexidyne integrates a system dynamics conceptual framework with discrete-event and agent-based models. The system dynamics framework facilitates a common conceptualization of the structure of a system, while the discrete-event and agent-based simulation methods represent individual entities with distinct attributes and behaviors and the interaction between these entities. This approach provides a nuanced perspective on complex systems, allowing our clients to craft customized strategies tailored to specific populations rather than relying on aggregate measures.
Lexidyne has developed a proprietary software library of advanced analytic tools that allow for the identification of actionable strategies that optimize performance. These technological advancements include an extensive list of data analysis methodologies, unique modeling techniques, and advanced AI/Machine Learning innovations. By coupling these learning algorithms with simulation and big data it becomes possible to determine contextualized solutions that optimize expected outcome.
Our growing library of modeling approaches, dynamic algorithms, data queries, and simulation engines allows Lexidyne to leverage our many years of collective consulting experience to serve our clients more effectively.
As a consulting firm, Lexidyne applies proprietary strategies to help clients in various industries. Due to success within the Healthcare Industry, a majority of current projects focus on forecasting and optimizing business decisions for various Fortune 500 Pharmaceutical companies.

System Dynamics
The proprietary algorithms and data approaches used at Lexidyne have stemmed off the Mathematical field of System Dynamics. Jay Forrester created the field in the mid-1950s as a professor at MIT. Principle Owners at Lexidyne were awarded the Jay Forrester Award in 2010 in recognition of the best contribution to the field of SD in the preceding 5 years.

Lexidyne provides an adequate salary for healthcare, dental, and retirement as they are not provided initially. As one is at the company longer, the benefits may change.
Long-Term Planning
Lexidyne has a great history of retention. A majority of employees remain at the company for at least 2/3 years and some remaining more than 8. The owners of Lexidyne embed the goal of personal growth in every project. It is their goal that a new hire may begin as a business analyst, and grow into other roles in the company. As a small company, the potential for title changes, raises, and growth within the organization is directly reflected by an individual’s success in project completion. There does not exist a set structure for promotion as Lexidyne does not utilize the typical structure for promotion as seen in large, consulting firms.
In an unprecedented time with the pandemic and increased requirements for remote work, Lexidyne continues to support flexibility for employees. It is required for a new employee to spend 6 months at the main Lexidyne location in Colorado Springs. Once an employee is able to fulfill work requirements for their role, there is flexibility on where one may live. There will be a short time each year where everyone must be within the office for collaboration.
Lexidyne hopes to find new employees who are eager to make an impact in the Healthcare industry as much of the work done directly improves the quality of life for patients. Lexidyne is looking for new talent who can plan on being a part of the organization for at least 2 years.
