Supply Chain Diagnostics

Where: Unipart, Unit 12, Hamilton Way, Bermuda Park, Nuneaton, CV10 7RL

“If you don’t know where you are going – any place is a good place to start”.  In these days of tight budgets and high expectations, making the best use of scarce resources is essential.  This seminar is a ‘look inside’ at some of the tools and techniques Unipart Expert Practices use in helping business to diagnose the underlying issues with their supply chain, design appropriate solutions and drive sustainable business benefits.

The topics covered include supply chain characterisation; understanding customer needs, costing complexity, network and facility design and inventory diagnostics.  Whilst it is not possible in one day to train you to be a consultant, our aim is to give you food for thought and some practical tools and techniques.
