Dynamic EOQ Model

SodaPop Game

Practice your operations management skills with this gamificated case study, where you will experience what it’s like to manage a bottling factory with an acquisitions module, production line and sales module. These of which serve two types of customers: Sodapop fans and companies. 

Assume the role of an Operations manager, take data-based decisions and have fun while doing it. Decide when and how much raw material you should buy so the fabric doesn’t stop and keep the production in line with demand.

"We strongly recommend it for other similar courses, because there is an abysmal difference between just looking at formulas and applying the contents".
"It helped us simulate a case close to real life and tested our ability to quickly make decisions in complicated scenarios"
"The game is a simplified version of what happens in real companies, which allows us to get a general idea of how it works, of the decisions that must be made, and of the relevance of making good and bad decisions"
"Super Cool and Super creative way to learn"
"All subjects should be taught with practical simulation games like these!"
"A very good tool to put theoretical knowledge into practice and facilitate learning"
