DDBrix Distribution
The best DDMRP Simulation Game
1 day, 7.5 hours training
8-16 participants
Course Description
You will simulate the management of an end-to-end supply chain, with a supplier, a factory, a hub and 3 warehouses.
How can we satisfy customers when we have a shortage of finished product and production capacity constraints? How can we minimize transport costs?
Objectives
Experience the new organization proposed by DDMRP for managing a distribution system in a VUCA world.
Experiment with the changes that DDMRP will bring to your management of information and material flows.
Gain an overall vision of the importance of flow and demand links between customers, distribution networks, and suppliers.
Learn some fundamental principles of Supply Chain Management and DDMRP while having fun.
Manage a distribution network under constraints: limited production capacity, full truck loading, and non-homogeneous lead times.
