About the OpsSimCom:

The 20th Annual Operations Simulation Competition (OpsSimCom) 2024 is a student-led event where you can compete with top graduate students from around the world to see who can run the most profitable factory.

Powered by Processim Labs.

Prize pool of $ 3,000 and no travel required!

Play an online simulation against teams from around the world to manage a factory: make investments, cut costs, borrow money, forecast demand, find bottlenecks, fulfill orders and satisfy customers!

We have witnessed the best teams from around the world pit their wits against each other in what the game creator has called  "possibly the most challenging assignment I've ever created." OpsSimCom will use a simulator especially designed for the competition, and no prior experience with the simulation is required. Even if you have played this game in class, this will not be a repeat of what you have seen before.
