Service Management

Customers first! Our service management business simulation addresses the peculiarities of service companies. As in reality, the focus is on the customer. Depending on the individual target groups, specific marketing and sales measures have to be implemented. In the areas B2B and B2C, the board teams direct their activities and resources towards the specific requirements of different customer segments. The teams deal with topics such as strategy and marketing, capacities and investments as well as finance and controlling. The objective is to ensure long-term customer satisfaction, so that personnel and material resources can be turned into entrepreneurial success.

The overall target is to increase the company value, as measured by the Economic Value Added, EVA.

  • Benefits of the business simulation

    Realistic market environment
    A realistic and dynamic corporate environment reflects current political and economic events, which repeatedly present new challenges to the teams.

    Competition
    The team with the highest company value wins the competition. The identification with their own company and the direct competition between the teams arouses emotions and enthusiasm.

    Sustainability
    The 'learning by doing' method and the repeated application of what has been learned promote the practice transfer into their own work area and result in a sustainable learning effect.

    Teamwork
    The participants train their teamwork skills and make all decisions jointly. An efficient and targeted planning and decision-making process in the team is therefore a critical success factor.

    MARGA is well-known for its particularly intensive tutoring. During the self-directed online phases, our tutors also support all participants in content, organizational and technical matters.
