FALL 2022 NATIONAL CASE COMPETITION

Welcome to the Fall 2022 National Supply Chain Case Competition
November 3th – November 5th

This case competition allows teams of Arizona State University students of various disciplines and grade levels to experience the practical applications of SCM by working together to propose innovative solutions to a company-provided case. This case competition will be on a national scale allowing you to compete with students from other top universities: University of Texas El Paso, Florida International University, and University of Houston.

Students will receive the case materials on November 4th and work on this case throughout the rest of the day until submitting at the end of day November 5th. On Saturday, students will have the opportunity to present their solutions to a panel of judges and the top team from each university will be chosen. The top teams will then receive an additional inquiry to consider and on Sunday will present their final solutions to the judges.

Thank you to this year’s sponsor(s): TBD
