Proposed five-day professional program. Approximately 25-30 training hours. Final arrangements are confirmed in the written proposal.
Course Overview
Use storage and activity data to improve warehouse space and location decisions.
This proposed five-day program combines practical case analysis, guided exercises and peer discussion. Participants adapt the course concepts to organizational circumstances and prepare a warehouse capacity and slotting proposal.
Learning Outcomes
Assess capacity data and operating constraints.
Evaluate product activity and storage profiles.
Apply a structured approach to slotting principles and movement patterns.
Develop practical recommendations for scenario comparison and implementation risks.
Prepare and present a warehouse capacity and slotting proposal.
Who Should Attend
Procurement professionals, logistics coordinators, supply chain planners and contract owners.
Relevant work experience is recommended. The participant profile, prerequisite knowledge and case complexity are reviewed during planning.
Training Methodology
Facilitated discussion, worked examples, anonymized case analysis, practical exercises, peer review and an applied final assignment.
Learning assessment may include a baseline discussion, review of exercise outputs and a final presentation. Attendance and completion requirements are confirmed in the proposal.
