Managing and improving warehouse operations - a two-day seminar
December 2002
Training & Education
Robert Williams, head of practice and founder of LPC International, UK, will be speaking at the Radisson Hotel, Waterfront, Cape Town, on 27 and 28 January 2003.
New approaches and methods offer opportunities to cut costs substantially while improving overall operations. Many organisations are now focusing on the impact of the warehouse's bottom-line and are trying to bring warehouse operations more closely into their organisations.
Companies that make the best use of the basic principles of planning and managing warehouse operations have a competitive advantage. Companies that lack warehouse strategic planning and operational excellence lose profits, market share, cost advantages, and market leadership. More and more, suppliers are pressured to increase customer service, reduce inventories, increase productivity, handle more and more stock-keeping units, and operate in less and less space.
This intensive and practical two-day seminar will help delegates stay in touch with the most important new concepts in the warehousing/distribution field. The seminar is geared at teaching practical ways to improve equipment selection, warehouse layouts, inventory control, put-away, packing, loading, picking, and receiving, equipping the delegates to immediately to identify ways to apply these ideas to their specific environments. During the course, delegates will have the chance to develop their own action plans so that they can put the programme to work for them right away. To see how time-tested techniques for managing and improving warehouse operations can be used successfully on the job to strengthen the relationship between the overall organisation and a warehouse operation, contact marcus evans and book your place.
