Supply chain competitions are a great opportunity for students to bridge the gap between theory and reality. They develop their creativity and their ability to apply technical knowledge to solve realistic supply chain problems. After the success we had in the first Morocco competition last summer,
The Second-Place Team of the Saudi Arabia Competition
We were honored to have an Egyptian team participate in the supply chain competition organized for students in the Middle East. This team was made up of students from the International Transport and Logistics College of the Arab Academy for Science, Technology, and Maritime Transport
The Winner of the Saudi Arabia Supply Chain Competition
Supply chain competitions are a perfect way for attracting more students to the field of supply chain management, and for teaching them real-world skills by solving challenging problems in a simulated environment. After the success we had in our competition in Morocco last summer
Understanding the Customer Experience
Supply chain management is critical nowadays, and helping schools meet this challenge is our mission. Professors can complement their lectures and readings with interactive supply chain simulations. Morocco is one of the countries paying attention to teaching supply chain management, and attracting
SCM Globe simulations for use by humanitarian organizations
We worked with the World Food Program to create an online logistics training platform for their logistics staff and staff at other organizations they work with on humanitarian and disaster response operations. Supply chain models can be built and simulated to support planning for real supply chains
Proof of concept project for the U.S. Defense Health Agency
SCM Globe participated in a proof of concept project for the U.S. Defense Health Agency. We added a logistics dimension to other virtual reality (VR) training simulations. Other VR training simulations simulated treating a wounded soldier at a point of injury (POI); or evacuating wounded soldiers by
Winning Teams in Morocco Supply Chain Competition
Student teams from six engineering schools in Morocco competed last week in a supply chain competition loosely based on the supply chain of a real Moroccan company. The goal of the competition was to redesign and expand the company supply chain to best support its sales growth and
Good Feedback Grows Good Applications
Early this year we were contacted by a team of engineering students in Singapore who inquired about using our supply chain simulations to help them prepare for a regional supply chain contest: Dear Michael, My name is Tay Jia Shin and I am writing on behalf of our team consisting of Timothy Chu,
