What is ERPsim?
Each team runs their own company, making key business decisions while executing multiple business transactions.
Participants experience end-to-end process integration and the value of real-time analytics in a competitive business setting that runs on a live SAP S/4HANA system.
Post simulation debriefing allows participants to surface personal needs and discuss how the new SAP can help them solve real-life business issues.
Live competition promotes an engaging, fun experience for all levels of employees from executives to new hires.

Participant Experience
In teams of 3 to 5, each participant plays one or more roles so that all business activities are covered. Competing against other teams, the main goal is to amass the most profit, least carbon emissions or best social sentiment.
Depending on scenario participants will (for example) change product prices, replenish inventory and invest in marketing. All while using real-time reports and analytics.
Participants also gain access to DAS, our built-in simulation support tool.

Available Scenarios
![ERPsim Facilitator-led Overview (1)](https://batonsimulations.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/ERPsim-Facilitator-led-Overview-1.png)
Distribution Scenario
For teams engaged in the purchase and sale of products
ERPsim Distribution is a dynamic introduction to SAP S/4HANA completed in under 3 hours.
Using a select set of transactions and reports, participants manage purchasing and sales of products in a volatile market.
This simulation is impactful with executives and end users in retail and distribution.
Now offered in 2 varieties and 2 formats!
The scenario is offered in two formats of 10 and 20 minutes per round and empowers users with rich analytics in the Fiori interface as they distribute healthy snacks or bottled water.
Manufacturing Scenario
For teams integrating planning, procurement, manufacturing, marketing, sales, and finance
In this simulation proven with hundreds of organizations, participants manage the cash-to-cash cycle of a Muesli breakfast cereals manufacturing company, which includes planning, procurement, manufacturing, sales, marketing, and finance.
To achieve optimal results in this fast-paced scenario, teams must collaborate using analytics to capture market share.
Offered in 3 formats!
The scenario is offered in three formats: Short, Introduction, and Extended. They are available as a half-day or full-day session.
Public Sector Scenario
For teams managing public funds to meet challenges and improve the lives of citizens
Experience funds and budget management, procurement, spending, and monitoring of your program effectiveness in a generic public sector process.
Applicable to public sector organizations, universities, hospitals, and defense organizations, this scenario is available as a half-day or full-day session.
A realistic disaster relief scenario
In this scenario, participants will be rewarded for their optimal allocation of funds and resources to help the population, as a disaster evolves and the needs are rapidly changing.
Logistics Scenario
For teams that manage demand in several regions
This fast-paced scenario is strategic in nature, as participants strive for operational excellence and minimal logistics costs to generate profit and win in a competitive market.
Introducing concepts of forecasting, stock transfer logistics, sales, planning & procurements processes, this scenario can be played in less than 3 hours.
Available in 2 varieties and 2 formats!
The scenario is available in an Introduction and Extended format. Two varieties of products are available: dairy products and first aid material.
Sustainability Scenario
- In the ERPsim Sustainability simulation, participants manage a business-to-business (B2B) wholesale company that sells energy drinks in a competitive market. Compete against the other resellers (teams) to satisfy customer demand and maximize profit through sustainable practices!
- Core processes are similar as those of the Distribution and Logistics scenarios, such as setting prices, investing in marketing, managing stock transfer, and tracking inventory, with the added concept of carbon emissions.
- In the following rounds, they will seek to achieve operational excellence by minimizing logistics costs, as well as the company’s carbon footprint.
Sustainability Short
Sustainability Standard & Advanced
Public Sector Extended Scenario
For teams managing public funds to meet challenges and improve the lives of citizens
An extension of our classic Public Sector (Disaster Relief) scenario, Public Sector
extended integrates the concept of Logistics in the form of Stock Transfer Planning.
Applicable to public sector organizations, universities, hospitals, and defense
organizations, this scenario is available as a half-day or full-day session.
A realistic disaster relief scenario
In this scenario, participants will be rewarded for their optimal allocation of funds and resources to help the population, as a disaster evolves and the needs are rapidly changing.
Storms/disaster moves from SYDNEY to BRISBANE to TOWNSVILLE.
Products and services must be transported from JLU Victoria to the corresponding JLU providing relief to a disaster-stricken area.
The overall objective of Public Sector Extended is to gain social sentiment — a success score representing how accurate and timely your team meets the three communities need for relief products and services as they survive a natural disaster.
The four roles include:
- Budget Officer: Responsible for managing the disaster relief budget and funds
- Procurement Officer: Responsible for maintaining inventory of products and services
- Transport Officer: Responsible for moving products from the central storage location to regional storage locations as well as inter-regionally.
- Allocation Officer: Responsible for distributing products and services to the three stricken areas.
Enterprise Asset Management Scenario
Your maintenance teams are onsite to ensure the pumps in your plant are running at full capacity. Through regular maintenance you will hopefully ward off disaster by avoiding and fixing any potential breakdowns.
Your performance will be measured by Maintenance and Downtime Costs and Overall Equipment Efficiency.
There are four participant roles, to complete the following tasks:
- Maintenance Engineer: Prioritize and release works orders associated to maintain a series of pumps.
- Resource Manager: Assign work orders to work centers, managing work center capacity and efficiency.
- Inventory Specialist: Ensure components are available for both preventive and corrective maintenance.
- Cost Controller: Monitor the overall costs and output
Machine Learning Bots
All our scenarios integrate Machine Learning algorithms from the HANA Predictive Analytics Library (PAL). These ML capabilities can be experienced in three ways:
-
- as user-assisted guidance, providing just-in-time decision support via bot notification;
- as intelligent robot process automation, automating tasks and processes in the simulations and controlled by the participants or the instructors;
- as an intelligent bot, able to compete with other teams and adapt to changes in the marketplace in real-time.
