However, the fact remains that warehousing and distribution center management is necessary because of extended lead times and unbalanced business process connections. Consequently, we want to manage warehousing as efficiently as possible. To accomplish this goal, we must bring lean principles into the warehouse and the distribution center. This course covers the lean principles that will help participants reduce waste in warehousing operations, manage the flow of inventory, instill disciplined processes and effectively use visual management.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022whoshouldattend\u0022 name=\u0022whoshouldattend\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Ch4\u003EWHO SHOULD ATTEND\u003C\/h4\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022course-item\u0022\u003E\u003Cli\u003ESupply Chain Professionals\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ELogistics Professionals\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003EMaterial Managers and Production Control Managers\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ETransportation ,Warehousing, and Purchasing Managers\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022benefits\u0022 name=\u0022benefits\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Ch4\u003EHOW YOU WILL BENEFIT\u003C\/h4\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EUpon completion of this course, you will be able to:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022course-item\u0022\u003E\u003Cli\u003EIsolate the key elements of lean thinking to be used in the warehouse\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003EValue stream map warehouse operations\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003EUtilize lean tools to reduce waste in the warehouse\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ECreate a warehouse operation based on visual management and real time problem solving\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003EReduce inventories in warehouse operations\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ECreate collaboration between warehousing and other functional areas\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBenefits:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022course-item\u0022\u003E\u003Cli\u003EReduce inventories in the warehouse\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003EReduce warehousing costs by as much as 25%\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003EImplement lean in the warehouse\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ECreate logistics collaboration between warehousing and other functional areas\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022outline\u0022 name=\u0022outline\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Ch4\u003EWHAT IS COVERED\u003C\/h4\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022course-item\u0022\u003E\u003Cli\u003ELean Warehouse Overview\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ERound One: \u0022Receiving Simulation\u0022 Set-up, Run and Debrief\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ELean Supply Chain Components Overview\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ESupplier Development \/ Procurement\/ Ops Linkages\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003EShipping Simulation Set-up, Run, Debrief\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli\u003ELean Storage Criteria \u0026amp;
