OpsSMART offers a compelling simulation-based learning model that lets the learners immerse themselves and experience the dynamic world of Operations Management.
The OpsSMART simulation addresses the three fundamental cornerstones of Operations – Team, Performance, and Client.
The simulation lets the learners deep-dive into 22 essential skills that enable them to deliver peak operational performance.
Simulation Overview:
This Business Simulation lets you operate the Passport Services of the Atlantis Federation. There are 55 passport offices spread across the Federation, and all of them are working below optimal. A survey conducted by an independent agency across the Federation about the services offered by the Federal Government called out the Passport Services as the worst-performing public services institution.
As you learn the fundamentals of Operations, you will need to make decisions about bettering the passport office services.

Problem Solving using MS Excel
In this Simulation, the Authors have picked forty-seven business relevant features and functions one must know to be termed as an ‘Advanced-Level’ user. No course can truly cover all features and functions of MS Excel. This Simulation is designed to help learners leverage those most used features and functions at work. Knowledge of these forty-seven concepts will certainly give you an edge when dealing with massive amounts of data. MS Excel has topped the charts (for over two decades) as the most used Spreadsheeting and Analysis tool. Anyone with a licensed copy of MS Excel 2010 (or above) will be able to apply and practice majority of the features and functions discussed in this Simulation.
Simulation Overview:
A mild earthquake has triggered a series of uncertain events. The Federation’s Nuclear Plant is 80 miles of the coast of Starford and the recent reports suggest a possibility of a leak. The Nuclear plant was designed to shutdown automatically in case of tremors, only this time the shutdown process led to a fission reaction which went out of control, we are suspecting a leak.
To make matters worse, the MET Dept has forecasted a Severe Hurricane heading towards the coast in the next 12 days. To avoid panic and unrest, the President of the Atlantis Federation wants you to evacuate citizens and foreigners from Starford before the Hurricane arrives. The President has sanctioned $50 million from his Disaster Management Budget.
Every public office, their data and personnel are at your disposal. This is a race against time and every decision you make has financial and people impacts. Study the Disaster Response Data, analyse them using your MS Excel skills, before making your decision.
All the best!
