About this Event
The 21st Annual Operations Simulation Competition (OpsSimCom) 2025 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.
Play for a prize pool totaling $2,500 - 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've 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 specially 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.
Competition begins at 5PM EST on Wednesday April 16th and runs till Friday April 18th 5pm ET
