Planning
planning
will
involve
creating
a
brief-style
write-up
(see
details
in
Deliverables
below).
This
write-up
should
be
completed
before
you
start
running
the
simulation
but
after
you
have
read
the
Minnesota
Micromotors
case
and
after
you
have
explored
the
workings
of
the
simulation.
Implementation
this
involves
actually
running
the
simulation.
You
can
run
the
simulation
up
to
five
times.
On
average,
students
take
about
45
minutes
to
run
the
simulation
the
first
time.
Subsequent
runs
get
faster,
and
running
five
simulations
will
take
about
2-2.5
hours.
More
deliberative
students
and
student
teams
will
take
longer.
Be
prepared.
I
suggest
running
the
simulation
three
times
using
the
recommendation
and
two
alternatives
you
outlined
in
your
case
brief.
Then,
based
on
what
you
have
learned,
run
two
additional
strategies
in
an
effort
to
maximize
your
score.
You
will
see
your
score
after
you
complete
a
full
run
of
the
simulation.
Simulation
scores
are
based
on
customer
satisfaction
(30%),
market
share
(10%),
cumulative
profit
(40%),
and
cumulative
revenue
(20%).
Only
your
highest
score
will
count
toward
your
grade.
Last
year
the
average
high
score
was
about
61.
The
top
score
in
the
class
was
85.
Control
in
marketing
strategy,
control
includes
monitoring
and
evaluating
how
your
strategy
is
performing.
You
will
engage
in
this
activity
in
two
ways.
First,
during
each
run
of
the
simulation,
you
should
review
the
data
and
feedback
you
receive
so
that
you
can
adapt
your
strategy
with
information
on
how
well
it
performs.
Second,
you
should
reflect
on
each
run
of
the
simulation
and
use
that
experience
to
guide
your
next
strategy.
Deliverables
There
are
two
deliverables
that
you
should
put
into
a
single
document.
1. Mini
Case
Brief
(60
points)
before
your
first
run
of
the
simulation,
you
should
prepare
a
case
brief
that
will
serve
as
your
plan
for
the
simulation.
The
case
brief
should
only
include:
Alternatives
two
unchosen
alternatives
with
pros/cons
analysis.
The
alternatives
should
include
a
brief
one
sentence
or
headline
description
of
your
strategy,
followed
by
a
one
paragraph
(or
series
of
bullets)
that
offers
a
more
detailed
description,
and
then
pro/con
analysis.
Include
a
proper
Mason-Mitroff
conclusion
for
each
unchosen
alternative.
Recommendation
your
first
choice
strategy
with
same
elements
as
described
above
under
alternatives.
Implementation
plan
Details
on
how
you
will
implement
your
recommendation
(not
for
each
unchosen
alternative).
This
should
take
into
account
the
elements
of
the
simulation
over
which
you
have
control
so
be
sure
you
understand
that.
We
expect
this
section
to
be
more
detailed
than
a
normal
case
brief.
Each
section
is
worth
20
points
using
the
criteria
we
have
used
for
evaluating
case
briefs.
MAXIMUM
LENGTH
of
this
part
is
TWO
PAGES.
NOTE:
there
is
NO
problem
statement,
NO
situation
analysis,
NO
extras
or
spreadsheet.
While
I
encourage
you
to
perform
that
analysis
on
your
own,
you
do
NOT
need
to
report
it
in
the
case
brief.
2. Post
Hoc
Assessment
(40
points
mostly
based
on
your
highest
simulation
score,
but
also
your
presentation
and
assessment).
This
is
your
teams
summary
of
each
run
of
the
simulation.
We
would
like
to
see
it
presented
in
a
format
like
that
shown
below.
Create
a
table
with
the
five
headings.
Maximum
length
of
this
section
is
ONE
PAGE.
Be
concise.
Choose
words
carefully.
Combine
both
of
these
elements
(the
case
brief
and
post
hoc
assessment)
into
a
single
document
for
submission
through
SafeAssign.
