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?
