Welcome to the ERPsim Digital Transformation Game

ERPsim is a business simulation game for SAP ERP and SAP S/4HANA in which participants use a real ERP system to manage their virtual company in a competitive market. Win or lose, participants will improve their knowledge of business processes and their understanding of how ERP systems are effective at managing those processes.

Learners get to use a real SAP S/4HANA system to evaluate, input and see the result of their decisions. Our approach makes use of actual transactions provided by SAP as well as custom transactions, which provides a mix that is very close to what an ERP user would experience in the workplace.

ERPsim help enabling learning by generating a dynamic environment where it accelerates time, simulates interactions with business partners, and automates administrative tasks execution. This approach allows learners to focus on analytics and decision-making and gives them an incentive to get better at translating their strategy into action using an ERP system.

By accelerating time (a business day is one minute!), learners have to focus on making the best decisions in the most efficient way possible. As the simulation evolves, they will be looking for ways to elevate their knowledge of the ERP system and might come up with solutions to improve their decision making.

ERPsim creates the perfect setting to introduce concepts and challenges of business processes and information management, change management, information security and auditing, and more. For example, each round can be played using previous-gen as well as next-gen user interfaces and tools, allowing learners to experience the evolution of a business system in a short period of time.

This page contains everything the player should learn before playing the game. Preparing for the game should take about 90 minutes to understand what you need to know in SAP and decide with your teammate your initial strategy in the game.
