with a dice that is electronically rolled (randomness) by pressingthe “Roll the Dice Button.” The face of the dice is displayed in the “PLAYING AREA.” Thefirst roll of the dice represents the Percentage for the three TQM variables (Table 1). The dice isre-rolled twice more to populate the remaining two variables by selecting ‘Yes’ to the pop-upwindow. Selecting ‘No’ re-starts the roll sequence. Figure 2 summarizes the results of the gamein the form of a chart that includes Cost/Profit, Ethics, and Quality. The user, through the gameplay can see the immediate impact of choices selected not only on the total quality andproduction, but more importantly, on the ethical impact of management choices. The game helpsthe user with a better

best quality of this management system. It applies to any industry or institution. Smart Management System can be customized to suit the size of the company, number of customers, locations such as local or global, or degree of automation. Scaling up or down and the system integration can be achieved relatively quickly. Scalability has recently gained significant attention, particularly in IT and manufacturing communities (Putnik et al., 2013). Smart Management System is scalable; hence it can facilitate business growth or reduction rather easily to provide flexibility for the business owners.10. Transparent and Ethical: Transparency is the

competence must not be sacrificed orcompromised. Many see these skills as the foundation of an engineering degree and the corebedrock for the 21st century global competitiveness and innovation that the US needs to maintainits standard of living. The National Academy of Engineering summed up these two perspective inthe following statement:7 Technical excellence is the essential attribute of engineering graduates, but those graduates should also possess team, communication, ethical reasoning, and societal and global contextual analysis skills as well as understand work strategies.In addition to these broader engineering perspectives, the ABET EM program criteria provideadditional insight into what should be interpreted as special to

final project in a senior level class on global industrialmanagement. The course focuses on teaching how the practice of engineering changes in globalindustrial settings. It addresses elements such as political and regulatory constraints (import andexport tariff and quotas), foreign currencies, applicability of foreign legal systems, working inmulticultural environments, resolution of emerging ethical issues, and the impact of internationalstrategies to the practice of engineering. The course had 80 students; approximately 60 studentsmajored in Industrial Engineering and the rest of the students majored in Packaging Design,Biological Systems Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering.Teams. Students were randomly assigned to twelve teams of six or
