To achieve results useful for industry, the university must be actively engaged in educat-ing the sponsors as to the nature and capabilities of the solution (including state-of-the-arttechniques, relevant literature such as patents, necessary computer and hardware resources, futurepotential ideas culled from the research literature, etc.). Quite often the term “technology trans-fer” is used to describe this objective. To assure success in a project, the company must be ableto understand, implement, and support the solution. Technology transfer can take place in severaldifferent fashions, including on-site and off-site training. Researchers from the university canplay an active teaching role acquainting

A good indication of the success of this format is the interest that industryhas in graduates who have been through the restructured capstone course.

The game is influenced by the structureand dynamics of previous supply chain simulation games. One of the earliest SCM games is the BeerGame, originally developed by Jay Forrester at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Forrester,J.
