The Supply Chain Game

Viewing Data and Changing Parameters

After you log in, you will see three icons in the Calopeia region: headquarters, a factory, and a warehouse, You are allowed a maximum of one factory and one warehouse in each of the other four regions. A black factory or warehouse icon signifies the factory or warehouse is currently operational. A gray icon signifies the factory or warehouse is under construction. To begin construction of a new factory or a new warehouse, click on the region where you would like to begin construction and fill in the resulting form.

Clicking on each icon will open a window presenting buttons to view historic data and make changes:

Plot past demand, past lost demand, and your firm's past cash position. If there are multiple warehouses, there will also be a description and choice of fulfillment policies.

Plot past WIP inventory, add production capacity, and change order point, order quanity, shipping method, and priority to each warehouse.

Plot past finished goods inventory and shipments. Change order point, order quanity, shipping method, and priority from each factory. Select the regions in which that warehouse can fulfill demand.
