Experience shows that the willingness to learn logistical interrelationships can be quickly and sustainably activated through the use of business games. The participants in the PiT® simulation game produce finished products themselves under realistic conditions and thus experience the potential that can be realised with targeted production logistics improvements. Typical logistics measures, such as production cycles, stock-limited order release, regulation of production flexibility, etc., can be experienced during the simulation game. The interactions between productivity, set-up strategy and adherence to delivery dates are particularly important. The sometimes astonishing effects are compared using key figures and analysed in the team. 

Our PiT® seminar provides participants with an overview of PiT® - Produzieren im Takt and shows its methodological background and area of application. As part of the PIT simulation game, you will experience a wide range of planning approaches from conventional ERP planning against unlimited capacities, to lean approaches and cycle-orientated planning.

The setting is a model company that manufactures customised products with long set-up times. The participants have the task of introducing improvements for process flow, planning and control as well as product and layout. After each round, weak points are analysed together and potentials are identified. This makes it possible to recognise whether the expected successes are being achieved with the changes introduced. The background knowledge imparted by our trainers between the rounds helps the group to work out their improvements. They provide them with the necessary know-how to be able to implement the methods.
