EY Supply Chain Talent Day

Question

Hello,

Would anyone be able to give me some information about the EY Supply Chain and Operations talent day?

What kind of cases do they usually give and what should I expect from the group case study?

I have never done a group case before any information would be highly appreciated

Thank you

Hi there,

First of all, be ready for anything! Learn how to adjust/react and adapt to any case type out there period!

Second, well, obviously make sure you're familair with Supply Chain/Ops cases :)

1) PrepLounge has that category in their case Library here: https://www.preplounge.com/en/management-consulting-cases?language=en&topic[]=13&topic[]=8&sort=real-case-desc&page=1&perPage=20

2) Google and casebooks are your friend. As are the McKinsey Operations and BCG Operations sites!

3) Send me a message and I can provide you with a few good ones and/or case you in them! Some examples include:

X retailer currently is seeing delivery delays due to lack or storage containers and skyrocketing container costs - how would you go about resolving this situation?
Vaccine maker x is seeing shortages in supplies for manufacturing - how can we resolve these shortages?
X distrubiton center would like to purchase an inventory management system - how would you evauate this decision?
