Programme outline
Integrated logistics treats procurement, warehousing and transport as connected parts of a single chain. The programme sets out an integrated approach to logistics and then takes each of these operations in turn — procurement, warehouse and transport — in terms of how it integrates with logistics, closing with trends and developments in integrated logistics and practical exercises. On completion you will be able to describe how the three operations integrate with the logistics chain and discuss current developments in integrated logistics.
- An Integrated Approach to Logistics
- Procurement Operations and Integration to Logistics
- Warehouse Operations and Integrations to Logistics
- Transport Operations and Integration to Logistics
- Trends and Development of Integrated Logistics
- Practical Exercises on Integrated Logistics
Who should attend
Your daily work sits in one part of the chain — buying, storing or moving goods — and you want a clear view of how the parts connect. The programme is aimed at Logistics Executives, Warehouse Supervisors, Procurement Executives, Transport Coordinators and Operations Officers who want a structured account of integrated logistics. It also suits supervisors newly given responsibility across more than one logistics function.
