Introduction

Teach students how to anticipate and act under pressure

In today’s global environment, supply chains are constantly exposed to risks, from delays and shortages to geopolitical shocks and supplier failures. Knowing how to respond is a critical skill.

In this simulation, students lead the executive team of a struggling orange fruit juice manufacturing company. As disruptions unfold, they must identify vulnerabilities, prioritize actions, and make tough decisions to safeguard performance.

They learn how risk management is not a separate function, but a mindset that shapes everything from supplier strategy to inventory buffers and customer commitments.
