Prepare your teams for real-world supply chain shocks with Zensimu

The Panama Canal unexpectedly closes. Quality issues cause product recalls. Customer backorders pile up. What do you do?

Zensimu’s Disruption Games translate high-stakes challenges into accessible, engaging scenarios that deliver measurable skill improvement — faster and more memorably than traditional classes or training sessions.

With Zensimu’s intuitive and immersive simulations, participants quickly learn how to:

Identify disruption triggers and understand their downstream effects.

Collaborate across roles to manage uncertainty and maintain flow.

Image

Test strategic responses without risk to real-world operations.

Develop resilience mindsets that improve readiness and response speed.

Zensimu disruption games are challenging, educational, and fun!

Easy to start and host, our game simulations assign teams of 2-8 players each to manage a different step in the value chain. 

The goal is to fulfill client orders and keep costs to a minimum by successfully managing production and delivery disruptions.

Teamwork is key. Communicate regularly, keep an eye on each other’s inventory, and coordinate to increase lead time to meet customer demand!
