• Project Managers
• Supply Chain Managers
• Risk Managers
• Plant Managers
• Production Planners
• HR Managers
• Logistics Managers
• Plant Managers
• Bossiness Improvement Specialists

Training Methodology

The delegates will be walked through the examples of using the software for Supply Chain design, market planning, inventory optimization, warehouse practices improvement, risk management and customer satisfaction measurement.

Delegates will go through the step-by-step process of creating the supply chain process, performing the risk assessments, acquiring and analyzing the results and preparing the recovery measures, and using Machine Learning algorithms best utilized within the Supply Chain.

The delegates will create simulation models based on the real life data, and will be encouraged to simulate the processes they are already working on. The focus is on the actual work of the delegates and their effective use of software
