Logistics and supply chain management
Your Challenge
As a manager responsible for planning you face a critical challenge – the need to balance short-term logistics performance with long-term value creation, through selective investment in logistics and supply chain infrastructure, supported by consistent management policies and support strategies. Furthermore you need to engage your colleagues in developing strategies.
Our Objective..
...is to help you to develop new policies and strategies that integrate your immediate logistics policies with value creation policies across the whole organisation. And to give you simple yet sophisticated tools that you can use to engage and communicate your strategies to your colleagues.
Our Approach
We apply a ‘hands-on’ simulation-based approach that first teaches essential elements of logistics and supply chain structure and behaviour – and then encourages self-learning through controlled experimentation with simulations. Logistics is then integrated within the wider business picture, applying the framework of value cycle dynamics.
What you will take away
You will take away simulations for further learning and communication with your colleagues. Simulations that you can further customise to your own situation. You also take away our ongoing support.To help build your own skills and/or to implement solutions.
Programme Structure
The programme comprises two core modules that may be taken separately or contiguously. Each module stands alone and has a number of options - offering a wide variety of learning points and benefits. Each module may be focused on specific company interests and issues.
Module 1: Logistics Foundations (1-2 days) Understand the structural foundations of logistics and supply chain behaviour.
Module 2: Logistics, Strategy and Value (1-2 days) Integrate logistics strategies within the wider business context and explore the financial value implications of investment and policy decisions.
