Business simulations suite launched in UK

Tata Interactive Systems has launched its TOPSIM suite of business simulations in the UK. The TOPSIM launch took place at the Tanaka Business School at Imperial College, London.

Manoj Kutty, Tata Interactive Systems' president, simulations, commented: "TOPSIM is a leading management simulation game that was developed over 25 years ago and is now used by over 100 companies and 400 universities worldwide.

"TOPSIM simulations offer the participant an in-depth understanding of functional skills - covering general management, strategic management, change management, project management, supply chain management, sales management, finance for non-finance, managing mergers and acquisitions - along with managing the business operations within an industry such as banking, insurance, retail, and pharmaceuticals.

"At present, there are over 15 generic TOPSIMs which can be delivered 'as-is' or adapted to a specific organisation's needs."

Dr Georg Fehling, vice president of Tata Interactive Systems Germany, acted as facilitator at the London launch which focused on the project management TOPSIM. He said: "TOPSIM Project Management is a management simulation set in a game-based, risk free environment. It challenges the participants to manage a complex project within budget and on schedule, keeping in mind quality, technology and political constraints."

Alan Samuel, TIS's head of operations in the UK, commented: "TOPSIM is not e-learning but blended learning, emphasising classroom-based and collaborative learning."
