Supply Chain Saga
A fun, high-level look at some of the scenarios clinical supply managers face.
In this browser-based game, you manage supply for an 18-month Phase 2b trial across North America and Europe, one month at a time. You forecast demand, order batches from a CDMO, ship to regional depots and keep 240 patients supplied without wasting stock or running over budget.
Along the way you level up six core skills: forecasting, vendor oversight, logistics, risk, influence and compliance. You also face real-world challenges such as batch delays, customs holds, expiring stock, protocol amendments and budget cuts. Live forecasts, inventory charts and a network map show the consequences of every decision.
It works on its own or as a team workshop, and it turns the judgment calls of clinical supply planning into something people can practice.
