HEC Lausanne was the winning team in the international ERPSim competition for the third consecutive year. It was one of the 10 best teams to take part in the final of this year\u2019s competition, which was held on 21 June 2016. The high level of the competition meant the HEC Lausanne team had to pull out all the stops to achieve a great win, proving all its know-how and talent.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

ERPSim is the name of the platform developed by HEC Montreal and used at HEC Lausanne on the\u00a0HEC Business Game<\/a>\u00a0course, delivered mainly by Professors\u00a0Christine Legner<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Thibault Estier<\/a>. It is a simulation which allows students to put into practice different concepts taught during the first two years of the Bachelor programme; in concrete terms, the game was based on selling packs of muesli produced by a specialist manufacturer. Course assistant and researcher Thomas Boillat was the team\u2019s coach.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s competition used a different assessment method, with each team only finding out where they were ranked at the end of each of the three rounds, after HEC Montreal had calculated their position and told them; in previous years, the teams were able to access their ranking directly. This added a degree of uncertainty and placed greater pressure on the teams, in addition to the particularly high level of this year\u2019s competition.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur team was ranked third after the second round. It faced some difficulties selling its packs of cereals although its prices were already very low compared with the market,\u201d explains Thomas Boillat, \u201cbut it tackled the challenge brilliantly, finally climbing to top place in half an hour.\u201d<\/p>\n

Our warmest congratulations to the winners and the team of researchers at HEC Lausanne who supported them!<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
