Supply Chain Management: Root Beer Game and Global Supply Chain Management
Harvard Business Publishing offers two simulations about supply chain management. Supply Chain Management: Root Beer Game is a team-based simulation that demonstrates how oscillations in a root beer supply chain develop and create a dynamic known as the “bullwhip” effect. Students take on roles representing the retailer, the wholesaler, the distributor, and the factory. In Global Supply Chain Management, students set up a supply chain to deliver two mobile phone models. Students examine the entire manufacturing supply chain and consider how best to optimize a supply chain to meet variable demand. Source: http://cb.hbsp.harvard.edu/cb/product/3101-HTM-ENG

Initiating

SIL project

The Sustainability in Logistics (SIL) project took place in 2009. The goal of the project was to develop a quick scan to measure how well companies perform in the field of sustainability in logistics. Students of two universities (HAN in The Netherlands and CSU in Russia) performed their research on this topic on a theoretical level (what indicators should be included in a quick scan; and why they should be included) and a practical level (field research in a company in a certain industry in their home country).
