KADENA
The Supply chain game
The Supply chain game
Kadena stands out among our developments. This logistics game is designed for those who understand the basics of supply chain management. You will need to forecast, plan, manage resources, and analyze unexpected business conditions.
Plan. Forecast. Manage.
KADENA Game
"KADENA" is a supply chain simulation game. The game mimics a real-life situation in supply chain management, where you need to make complex decisions, from ordering raw materials to delivering products to the market to meet changing demand. You are among competitors who are facing the same challenge—to achieve maximum profit. The results of each team will be evaluated in comparison to each other.
The teams' goal is to ensure an optimal balance between customer service levels, inventory management costs, and a plan to achieve a financially successful supply chain. Additionally, teams will experience firsthand the challenges of working in the supply chain field and will also be introduced to some of its elements in a gamified way."

Three main roles
Create. Play. Advise.
- AdministratorCreates game sessions for Leaders. Provides their logins and passwords. Collects all the work results for analysis.
- LeaderThe only role that has the right to enter data in the game. The Leader also creates the Players for their team. The Leader's work results represent the overall performance of the entire team.
- PlayerThe Leader creates Players—members of their team. Players log in to the same session as the Leader who created them. Players and the Leader form a team. The only difference between Players and the Leader is that they cannot enter data. It's a good idea to create a chat to make decisions together.
Rules
The game consists of
Factories - first link of supply chain
There are two Factories in the game. The first one is modern, new, and productive, but has high production costs. The second one is old, requires repairs, but has lower production costs. You need to calculate carefully where to produce the goods.
Markets - where a demand meets an offer
In our game, there are three completely different markets: Premium, Stable, and Affordable. You have data on past demand, and you need to predict what it will be in the future. It might seem simple, but don't let it fool you.
DC - distribution center
The Distribution Center (DC) allows you to reduce batch sizes, store goods until prices are high, and ensure a steady supply so that customers can always find what they need on store shelves.
Unexpected events in every round
Business cannot exist in a vacuum. A supply chain manager must analyze a large amount of information to make decisions. We understand this, and that’s why, in the game, in addition to "known" data, there are also variables. These can drastically change your market position if you make a mistake, for example, in lead time calculations or in forecasting sales for the coming months.
Make data-driven decisions
If you can't digitize something, you can't manage it. We've calculated that long calculations of obvious metrics can be done by the program. However, instructors can request that we hide these calculations. In that case, players will have to do the calculations manually.
