Book description
Warehouses are often seen as a necessary evil: places that stop the
flow of goods and thus increase costs without adding value. But the
truth is that they have a critical part to play in supply chain
management, and warehouse managers should be centrally involved in the
strategic aspects of any business. Excellence in Warehouse Management
covers everything you need to know to manage warehouse operations as
part of a streamlined and holistic system, fine-tuned to serve the
customer and drive the bottom-line. With thinking points,
self-assessment exercises and case studies Stuart Emmett challenges you
to consider your own operations in a new way, and plot a course into the
future. Stuart Emmett is a trainer, consultant and mentor, operating
