Material Management (SCM03)

    Description

    Material Management is an essential link in the supply chain. It is particularly important in the upstream industry where the cost of a disruption can be enormous, unrelated to the cost of the equipment itself. On the other hand, the downtime may result in the accumulation of material which is the opposite of business efficiency.

    Where is the right balance? This course will answer this question.
    It provides a thorough understanding of the role and importance of Material Management within the Supply Chain, the definition, objectives and procedures of Stock Management as well as stock control activities.
