Practice Operations puts students in the role of an operations decision maker for a clothing manufacturing company. Students become players in a serious learning game. To access the game register with your University email address using this link: https://accounts.mheducation.com/connect/section/s-despoudi-bnm810---spring22?app=newconnect.mheducation.com Play begins with an overview of the heart of that engine - managing the production process. Players review the contract specifications as well as the production process by walking through the production floor and shipping area. Students then analyse the receiving department functions of managing the supply chain and material inventories to ensure client needs can be met. In order to grow the business, players choose which new contracts to pursue and then optimize their receiving, production and shipping departments accordingly.
As the business grows, players manage both the human and facility resources in order to meet capacity challenges. Customer satisfaction is also a key metric for success. In the final stages of the game, the simulation puts players in complete control over all areas of operations at a new branch, with the challenge to build the most profitable company possible. Task Details/Description: For this report you need to reflect on the key decisions that you made while playing the Practice Operations Game. You need to select the decisions that you believe that had a significant effect on your game performance i.e. score. You are required to formulate relevant strategies for each decision that you make in order to complete the game successfully that will be focused on making the biggest profit. These strategies should be clearly related to operations management concepts for the management of an operation such as that in the game. There should be a justification of why a particular strategy was chosen. You should identify the appropriate aims of each strategy that they propose for the successful completion of the game, and these should be clearly related to the financial aspects of the game (revenue versus costs). Please note that no marks are given for the game scores, and you will be solely marked on the report that you will submit. Also, you need to analyse only a few decisions of the game i.e. 4-5 key decisions and these decisions can come from any of the game modules. You need to follow a reflective writing style (you can write in first person) where you will discuss the following: (a) description of decisions made, and justification based on operations management theories; (b) explanation of why each decision was effective or ineffective and delineate the impact of them on the business. For this you may use your game score to reflect on them; (c) critically discuss what you will do differently in the future to get a better score if you were going to replay the game based on operations management theories.
