Over the past three weeks in the University of Phoenix Marketing Management class‚ I have completed three simulations based on real life marketing situations. The first simulation was titled‚ "Forecasting Market Demand." This simulation discussed the importance of determining the future demand for your product in the voice commanded software industry. The marketing team for the new Listensoft software needed to accurately forecast the production capacity of the new product and the pricing strategy

As mentioned above‚ during the last negotiation simulation there were three groups or teams. Each team represented a South American country. For this exercise the country of Brazil‚ wanting more action and less declaration of political will‚ convened a working group consisting of three countries: Venezuela‚ Peru and Colombia. The sole purpose of generating these countries together was to generate a solution to water quality concerns. Cooperation was a key element within this negotiation‚ as working

Carlo Simulation Risk analysis is part of every decision we make. We are constantly faced with uncertainty‚ ambiguity‚ and variability. And even though we have unprecedented access to information‚ we can’t accurately predict the future. Monte Carlo simulation (also known as the Monte Carlo Method) lets you see all the possible outcomes of your decisions and assess the impact of risk‚ allowing for better decision making under uncertainty What is Monte Carlo simulation? Monte Carlo simulation is a

Benihana Simulation Analysis Harvard Business Publishing has created a computer simulation to replicate the operations management decisions facing Benihana. Benihana is a teppanyaki style restaurant franchise that focuses on bringing a theatrical dinning experience to its patrons. The layout of the restaurant consists of two seating areas: the bar and the dining area. The goal of this simulation is to maximize utilization‚ throughput time and the nightly profit using different batching‚ bar sizing

Our performance was not as good as last time. The distribution network of the company consists of a single factory and a single warehouse‚ both in Calopeia. We can build extra factories and warehouses in other places. Actually at first‚ our goal was increasing the manufacturing capability and warehousing capability‚ meanwhile‚ reducing the cost and turnover rate. We didn’t know that we can build new factories and warehouses in other locations. The moment we realized it‚ it was too late to
