implexa

It is software for learning about supply chain management (SCM). It is a multi-player simulation environment in which each student manages a company that is part of a value chain.

implexa is inspired by the well-known beer-game created at the MIT Sloan School of Management in the 1960s. Implexa aims to achieve the same educational objectives as the beer-game, while improving many of its aspects.

multi-player

It is a multi-player network game where each player manages a company which is part of a supply chain. You can simulate multiple suppliers levels and several supply networks.

real time

You must make decisions and react quickly. implexa performs all calculations in real time (costs, inventory levels, lead-time, bullwhip effect, etc.), and graphically displays the results instantly. All digital, on your screen, without papers or hand calculations.

ready to play

You do not have to install anything on your computer. Everything is ready for use. You only need a browser and internet connection. So you can focus your attention on teaching your students how complex and exciting logistics is.
