Synchronise the supply chain
Get production, logistics and suppliers working together.
Why this programme
Just-in-time, sequencing, shortages: one missing part stops an entire line. Teams manage a simulated supply chain in which each department holds only part of the information. They quickly discover that performance comes from coordination, not from each department optimising on its own.
When applied to the workplace KAIZEN means continuing improvement involving everyone – managers and workers alike.
What your teams experience
- The flow game: pass orders between suppliers, logistics and assembly, and watch the bullwhip effect.
- The shortage: a part is missing and teams have ten minutes to save production.
- Sequencing: deliver the right parts to the line side, in the right order.
- The departments’ pact: each team makes a commitment to the next team in the chain.
Each activity opens and closes with a projected cinematic sequence, personalised for your teams. The facilitator sets the pace: nothing moves forward without them.
What the company gains
A better understanding of each department’s constraints, less tension between production and logistics, and practical ideas for securing flows.
Manufacturing accounted for 18.5% of non-fatal accidents at work in the EU in 2023.
How we tailor it to you
Your wording, departments, figures and photos are built into the challenges and cinematic sequences, to the letter. The look follows your brand guidelines. Teams are formed on the spot or based on your organisation chart. The session report is delivered to you after the event.

What is digital team building?
A team building session in which teams play challenges on participants' phones while a big screen shows the running order, the scores and the cinematic sequences. A facilitator runs the room from start to finish. Everything happens in person.
Do we need to install an app?
No. Participants scan a QR code and play in their phone's browser. No account, no password, no installation. It works on iPhone and Android.
Is there a limit on the number of participants?
No. The platform adapts to your headcount, from a small team to the whole company, in one or several rooms.
