HOW TO PLAY Copyright © 2013 Harvard Business School Publishing.Overview • Your Role: – Senior Project Manager at Delphi Printers & Peripherals, a small electronics and computer peripheral manufacturer. • Your Task: – You need to assemble and direct a product design team to develop a new and innovative consumer printer. Delphi has intelligence suggesting that a competitor is launching a printer with similar features and capabilities in 6 months, putting pressure on you and your team to develop a new printer that can compete effectively against the competitor's offering. • Simulation Goals: – Successfully complete the assigned project. – Your project success will be rated on the following metrics: 1) scope 2) schedule 3) resources (cost) 4) team process (morale & stress) • Simulation Timeline: – The simulation will continue until either you successfully complete the project at hand or you decide to prematurely end your project.Research your project 2.

The dashboard provides an overview of key project metrics.Analyze the results (continued) The Analyze screens contain project specific data related to scope, schedule and resources. Toggle between graphs and tables for a different view of the data.Monitor and adjust project parameters Continue until you successfully complete the project.  After analyzing the data, adjust your project parameters by accessing the "Decide" sidebar slide outs again.  The simulation will advance by the number of weeks of your choosing or until the project has been successfully completed.  You may also choose to end your project early, but be aware that this action may result in not meeting project targets.Review Project Rating At the end of the simulation, you will receive a total score broken down by scope, schedule, resources, and team process.Play Again Decide if you want to play the same scenario again, or if your facilitator enabled one, start a new scenario.
