Logistics/warehouse and production management

Behind every smooth assembly line lies the invisible strength of planning, logistics, and warehouse coordination: this is where operations become performance.

The courses Logistics & Warehouse Management and Production Management are combined in this training module because both focus on managing operations effectively, from material handling to production execution. They are especially useful for professionals in logistics and production who want to optimize flows, timing, and quality.

1 - Logistics & Warehouse Management

This course teaches how to organize the warehouse and logistics flows in an efficient way, optimizing space, paths, and stock management. It covers layout planning, storage methods, FIFO logic, picking times, and the use of digital tracking tools.

When to take this course

Disorganized or error-prone warehouses.
Long lead times or waste in picking and shipping.
Difficulty managing stock efficiently.

Key topics covered

  • Full warehouse procedure cycle: receiving, checking, storage, picking, packing, shipping.
  • Types of warehouses: block, drive-in, pallet racking, cantilever, dynamic, automatic.
  • FIFO logic, using WMS and digital procedures.
  • Item tracking with barcode and RFID.
  • Warehouse worker roles and key skills.
  • Material handling equipment and logistics safety.

Successful applications in companies

- Several warehouses improved the number of lines handled and shipped without increasing staff.
- There was a significant drop in order preparation errors and incomplete shipments.

2 - Production Management

This course provides tools to plan, monitor, and improve the production process. It includes line balancing, waste reduction, bottleneck handling, and quality improvement. It fits both discrete and continuous production environments.

When to take this course

Repeated delays in deliveries or production.
Quality problems or inconsistent lot results.
Lack of control over timing, quantity, or line efficiency.

Key topics covered

  • Bill of materials, work cycle, push and pull systems.
  • Batch production: minimum and economic lot size.
  • Planning with MPS/MRP and work orders.
  • Line balancing techniques and takt-time (TPS).
  • Time and method study.
  • Kraljic Matrix and supplier planning.
  • Corrective, preventive, and predictive maintenance.

Successful applications in companies

- Production managers learned tools to plan more precisely, avoiding delays and warehouse overstock.
- They improved analysis of production times and identification of bottlenecks, including by updating maintenance strategies.

Make your operations smooth, measurable, and responsive: performance starts with daily management.
