Course Overview

A supply chain is only as reliable as the least visible link inside real-time shipment tracking. Single sourcing on the practice within procurement and supply operations looks efficient until the day it is not. Participants leave with a method for the procurement and supply operations discipline, not a set of opinions about it. The professional literature on real-time shipment tracking converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. Improvement in this aspect of procurement and supply operations stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make the practice within procurement and supply operations hard in practice. Participants who influence real-time shipment tracking without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting the procurement and supply operations capability, ready to be adapted internally. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to this area of procurement and supply operations that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
