Who should attend

Digital tools are being introduced across the operations you work in — planning, buying, storing and moving goods — and you need a structured account of what they do and where they apply. The programme is written for Supply Chain Executives, Planning Officers, Procurement Executives, Logistics Coordinators and Warehouse Supervisors who work alongside these systems without a formal grounding in them. Managers and supervisors whose brief now includes a digital initiative will find it a sound starting point.
