Material Detail

(Please note that there is a $20 per student charge to participate in this simulation). The Supply Chain Game is an online supply network simulator. In a typical setting students are divided into teams and compete against each other in one or two assignments lasting a week each. To meet different demand patterns in five regions, student teams set production and inventory control parameters, transportation choices, and add new factories and warehouses. The objective of the game is to maximize cash position at the end of the game. The game is designed for use in supply chain electives or core courses that emphasize supply chain management. Learning objectives include: forecasting; inventory and production control; supply network design; logistics; The Supply Chain Game was developed with Professors Sunil Chopra and Philipp Afeche at the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University.
