Course Description
Modern Supply Chain Overview (MoSCOw) covers the fundamental areas of supply chain engineering and management along with the ways in which they could evolve over time. An experimental activity in virtual reality is included, which lets course participants apply what they learn and gain concrete implementation experience.
Who Should Attend
This course is intended for operational supply chain players (in both supply chain engineering and supply chain management) who wish to gain a better understanding of the systemic nature of supply chain ecosystems. This course is also aimed at consultants and advisors who wish to gain a more structured and comprehensive view of modern supply chains.
How You Will Benefit
- Become familiar with the main supply chain concepts, features, components, relations, processes and current issues.
- Understand the nature, causes, and options related to the demand, production, and procurement problems faced by supply chain managers and engineers.
- Learn how to choose, deploy, and use legacy along with incoming methods, models, and techniques to create engineering solutions to these problems.
- Create a systemic understanding of supply chain systems, including the handling of scales (local, regional, national, and global) and horizons (operational, tactical, and strategical).
What You Will Learn
- Structural and dynamic fundamentals of a supply chain (demand, production, procurement/purchasing management, and engineering)
- Risk-driven supply chain concepts and practices
- Data-driven supply chain concepts and practices
- Performance-driven supply chain concepts and practices
- Demand-driven supply chain concepts and practices
- Hyperconnected supply chain concepts and practices
