You will probably have an option in start parameter to run FlexSim without an open workspace and Program Frontend. But running a model without a started FlexSim violates licenses and user agreement.

You can use the /maintenance command line switch to start FlexSim without User Interface (UI).

See Ben's answer (the one below the accepted answer) in https://answers.flexsim.com/questions/21116/automatically-configure-and-run-a-flexsim-model.html
