PMAC 112 - Introduction to Logistics
Course Description
This logistics course explores the interconnections between procurement, operations and transportation. You’ll learn how to balance the pressures for large order sizes to achieve low unit costs with the competing pressures to keep order sizes low to minimize warehouse space and inventory obsolescence. We’ll examine the option of having a few centralized warehouses versus multiple distributed warehouses. Among the topics covered are forecasting, uncertainty, safety stocks and customer service requirements. Computer systems such as DRP, WMS and TMS will also be presented.
