Teaching Supply Chain Management

Readings and lectures are good, yet when it comes to meeting today's students where they live, we also need tools that are highly interactive and visual. Our map and satellite based supply chain simulations provide immediate and engaging graphic and numeric feedback showing supply chain performance and identifying problems. Students apply what they learn in readings and lectures to solve problems, and demonstrate their proficency. Start by clicking the button below, to see how SCM Globe is changing the way supply chain management is taught and practiced.

Collaborative Supply Chain Simulation and Planning

We often think small groups of experts using complex technology are the best way to plan and manage supply chains. Yet supply chains today face increasingly volatile, and unpredictable environments. This calls for decentralized networks of different supply chain participants collaborating in real-time to achieve common objectives, and respond quickly as situations change. Our online colaborative simulations empower globally distributed teams. Everyone can see supply chain performance, and see where problems arise. Simulations show what actions work best, so people can agree on what to do, and they understand why. SCM Globe simulations let you analyze and improve real supply chains, or design new ones. Use simulations to ENERGIZE your Sales and Operations Planning process!

    SCM Globe simulations are critical to integrating the various content elements of my "Managing Business Operations" class and is very popular as a learning tool for the students. Semester after semester, class evaluations cite the popularity and practicality of the simulations. They have become a recruitment tool for the course. (Visit Salve Regina University Online)

  • The University of Maryland University Colloge, blue with a yellow curved line through it.
    SCM Globe is a very engaging simulation tool for students to learn the basics surrounding supply chain management. The tool provides a "real world" simulated environment in which various case scenarios allow students to apply the theories and concepts which they have learned in the classroom. The tool really enhances the learning experience. (Visit ASCM at University of Maryland University College Online)

  • The Dania academy logo.
    Based on your simulation model, the students learned how a supply chain actually operates. By far, the SCM Globe simulations made the course interesting and insightful. I can try and explain how a supply chain works, but to have the students actually see it happening on the computer was very educational. (Visit Dania Online)

  • MIT center for transportation & logistics logo.
    In a 30 day intensive supply chain and logistics seminar, student teams from around the world applied supply chain principles from their readings and lectures to solve real supply chain problems encountered in the SCM Globe simulations. SCM Globe integrated theory and practice and students found the experience engaging and enlightening. (Visit MIT Center for Transportation & Logistics Online)
