P & G Production Control Simulation

This unit describes a simple production control game. To run the game you must install the Jensen Simulation add-in (simulation.xla). Familiarity with the Simulation add-in is not required for the game, but it must be installed for the game to work. The P&G Game is an Excel workbook called png_game.xls. Open the workbook by double clicking the Excel file or using the Open command on the Excel file menu. Because the workbook contains VBA macros, you must respond affirmatively to Excel’s security warning about opening files with macros. Since VBA macros may contain viruses, be sure you obtain this file from a reliable source.

Click the links on the left to download the game, and the Simulation add-in. The P & G game is an Excel file and the Simulation add-in is a zip file. Before beginning read the instructions for installing and using add-ins.

Follow the links at the left for a description of the situation and to learn how to start and play the game.
