We will discuss "Best Practices" inventory management and
give attendees the solid foundation and understanding required for
any serious inventory program in your company. Operations, systems,
sales, warehousing, and management will be discussed with a concentration
on inventory management and replenishment. An in-depth look at the
processes and practices of automated replenishment and proper inventory
management will be examined. What it is, how to make it work, the
"watch outs," and what to expect will be reviewed. Product usage/demand,
lead times, order points, line points, order quantities, safeties,
and properly maintaining product levels will be discussed. What the
different parameters mean, how to set them up, and how to maintain
your inventory management package; as well as tips and tricks will
be covered.
The first day is a powerful session for any distributor
that wants a “get results” Inventory Management program regardless
of what system they are using. All levels of the company, from the
president and executive level management through the entire ranks
of the organization should attend. Infor’s ERP SX.enterprise
will be used for the demonstration ERP system on the second and third
day, but all three days are applicable to any distribution system
and distributor.
