Let us share the example of Mews Partner

Zensimu client - Mews PartnersZensimu client - Mews Partners

Mews optimizes client projects kick-off and consultants skills with Zensimu’s Beer Game

Mews Partner is an independent management consulting firm, in the heart of the French aerospace industry.

Challenge

Before Zensimu, Mews used the Beer Game via Excel spreadsheets and Post-Its (read our Online vs Board Beer Game analysis) for killing three birds with one stone:

  • Internal trainings of its own consultants

  • Educational trainings within universities

  • Kicking off clients and team-building exercises (Bullwhip Effect)

But this long and cumbersome process made it impossible to host large groups and, or in remote settings, and wasn’t scalable.

Solution

Mews was looking for a robust Beer solution with:

  • A modern gameplay experience

  • Ability to customize the game for each client specificities

  • Ability to mix and assign roles in order to give each player a fresh and new perspective of the tailored supply chain.

  • Automated analytics reports and visualizations of each Beer Game

After search, they chose Zensimu Beer Game solution for its modern gameplay, customisation settings, easy to use and its complete reporting.
