Interactive Supply Chain Decision Game
ChainDecision is an interactive online game designed for studying supply chain decision-making. Players make ordering decisions and monitor inventory levels in a simulated supply chain environment.
How It Works
The game is built on a complex relational database that tracks player decisions, inventory levels, and supply chain dynamics in real time. Players are tasked with making ordering decisions while managing inventory under varying conditions.
Environmental variables are controlled by administrators and include:
- Demand parameters — controlling customer demand patterns and variability
- Ordering costs — defining the cost structure for placing and receiving orders
- Weather patterns — introducing external disruption factors into the supply chain
