Pragmatic Inventory Management Masterclass
Many companies have difficulties determining the optimal stock levels taking into account the business environment and constraints. There are various reasons for this, but one important reason is the lack of practical knowledge about inventory management. That is why Optimact and PICS Belgium have developed a unique and very practical training course based on their extensive experience. The level of inventory and the availability of goods has not only a major impact on the performance of various departments within an organization, but also influences the result of the entire company. In theory, the optimal stock levels can easily be calculated by analysing the sales, the planned sales and consumption, the lead times and the desired service level.
