Warehouses have been described as places where buyers keep their
mistakes. They are also seen as a 'necessary evil': places that
stop the flow of goods and thus increase costs without adding
value.
The truth is that warehouses often have a critical part to play
in supply chain management, and warehouse managers should be
centrally involved in the strategic aspects of any business.
"Excellence in Warehouse Management" covers everything you need
to know - from stock control to outsourcing - to manage warehouse
operations as part of a holistic system, fine-tuned to serve the
customer and drive the bottom-line.
Cutting through jargon to clearly define and explain all the
various processes of warehousing and logistics, Stuart Emmett
reinvents warehouses as crucial links in supply chains that are
streamlined, adaptable and profitable. Where speed and flexibility
are watchwords, and people are valued and developed. With thinking
points, self-assessment exercises and case studies he challenges
you to consider your own operations in a new way, and plot a course
into the future.
Balancing core principles with current issues such as global
supply chains, reverse logistics, risk management in agile systems
and socio-political influences, this is an essential guide for any
warehousing, logistics or supply chain professional.
