LINKS firms in the LINKS services simulations market and deliver “support services” (e.g., computing/IT support, financial management, health care, repair, or maintenance services) to households (consumers) and major accounts (businesses) in multiple market regions. The LINKS services simulations highlight the interrelationships among marketing activities, organizational capabilities, and service operations (service capacity management, service quality, human resource management, and technology).

Participating in the LINKS Global Services Competition is an alternative instructional/learning opportunity to the traditional usage of LINKS within a single instructor's course (i.e., an event with students from a single course conducted according to the course instructor’s preferred scheduling).
