The Living Case Engine

Pick a Supply Chain 5.0 module and the engine writes a fresh case, then examines you on it. Every case is generated at the moment you ask for it, so there is nothing to copy from a classmate or from a chatbot. The engine never solves the case for you. It asks the next question.

1. Choose the module

The module sets the tension the case is built around. Add a focus if you want the case pointed at something specific, for example cold chain, port congestion, or supplier bankruptcy.

About this tool

The concept

A case is only authentic while it is unseen. A case that has been published, solved and posted online teaches recall, not judgment. This engine writes the case at the moment you ask for it, so the work you do on it is yours.

How it works

You choose a module. The engine writes a short case with a named company, a concrete situation, a few numbers and a genuine trade off across cost, sustainability and people. Then it examines you on your reasoning, one or two questions at a time, and assesses you against five criteria when you ask.

Winning strategy

Name the trade off before you pick a side, and say who pays for your decision. A confident answer that ignores one of the three pillars scores worse than a hesitant answer that holds all three in view.

Cases are generated for teaching. Companies and figures in them are fictional and must not be quoted as real.
