Project Description
Why attend
There are some underlying theoretical principles in warehouse operations. A company should apply these principles if aiming in an efficient operation. The downside in this notion is that sometimes there is a considerable investment inherently related to such an implementation. In this course we have chosen to present some case studies of situations where warehouse operations have been improved with minimum or zero investment cost
Course Objectives
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
- Reviewing existing warehouse operations principles and techniques

- Studying case studies in a way to learn the way some companies have devised to solve their warehouse operations issues
Who should attend

Alternatively, the course would suit anyone within the company who wishes to understand the basic principles in Warehouse Operations and the underlying cost structure of them.
