Course Overview
Most procurement disputes about warehouse location selection originate in a specification written too quickly. Warehouse performance on this part of procurement and supply operations is decided by layout and discipline long before technology. It treats the procurement and supply operations discipline as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. The programme suits teams tackling warehouse location selection together as readily as individuals attending alone. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in this aspect of procurement and supply operations before they become incidents. A common pattern is strong design of the procurement and supply operations capability paired with weak follow-through. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better warehouse location selection is rarely technical. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a sourcing procedure for this strand of procurement and supply operations as they go. The programme closes with an action plan for this area of procurement and supply operations that each participant writes for their own organisation.
