PMD Warehousing new

Aims:

This course is intended as a stand-alone module that covers the full application of specialised PMD within a warehousing environment. It aims to enable those attending the course to quantify and apply the appropriate should-take times to work carried out within operational warehousing areas in a detailed and analytical fashion. The application of these detailed times will provide an independent baseline or benchmark for the comparison and quantification of operational warehousing processes within the work area. Process times can then accurately be quantified using PMD within the M4 Management programme or any other suitable management information package. Successful completion of the course will enable delegates to apply the appropriate data within their own environment.

Target audience:

This training provides the skills required by those people engaged in the quantification of process improvements or management initiatives within an operational warehousing environment. It is expected that those attending this course will be fully conversant with the application of process analysis or have will have attended the PMD Mapping and Analysis module.
