Advanced Logistics Management
Course Description
Improve service whilst reducing costs; an impossible task? With effective management and leadership, world class companies do this every day. Getting more with less is possible and this seminar shows you how. In every Supply Chain, the service levels are paralleled with costs to serve. However, changes to costs have an effect on service levels; as what is done and the way it is done, in turn determines the costs and the service.
The Training Course Will Highlight ?

There is a dynamic trade of relationship between the cost, service and productivity levels in the interacting supply chain operations. Doing things better therefore involves consciously managing the productivity in a holistic way across the supply chain. This course will therefore show how to apply a thorough understanding of the costs of supply operations and use enhanced skills to deliver effective cost management. These in turn will improve internal and external customer service levels. In addition, the skills obtained will help you to examine productivity levels and make structured productivity improvements that will reduce costs yet also, improve service. The candidates will consider cost behaviors and cost management, thus understanding financial relationships in the supply chain. These will be applied in terms of utilizing resources and monitoring the productivity of processes and methods. In turn, these will result in performance of outputs, customer service and improvements to supply operations
