Efficient inventory control is at the heart of supply chain success. On this two-week course, you’ll explore the essential parameters of inventory management and how they support business continuity, cost reduction, and service excellence.

You’ll learn how to analyse historical data, apply forecasting techniques, and design replenishment strategies using tools like Material Requirements Planning (MRP).

Through real-world examples and case-based learning, you’ll strengthen your ability to balance supply and demand effectively.

Apply optimisation models and technologies in real scenarios

Practise calculating safety stock, reorder points, and economic order quantities (EOQ) while accounting for risk and lead time variability. You’ll explore how to categorise inventory, reduce excess, and improve turnover.

You’ll also assess the benefits of Just-in-Time (JIT) strategies and learn how AI and machine learning are shaping real-time inventory decisions in modern logistics and retail settings.

Apply AI tools and inventory models in real-world scenarios

Finally, you’ll explore key inventory metrics and dashboards to monitor performance, spot inefficiencies, and support continuous improvement. You’ll design inventory KPIs, build tracking frameworks, and assess optimisation outcomes across multiple channels.

With your new skills, you’ll be prepared to make smarter inventory decisions that support broader business success.

Lead transformation in supply chain operations

You’ll bring all your knowledge together to evaluate how inventory optimisation connects to broader operational strategy. Explore how effective inventory control influences procurement, finance, and customer service.

With future-focused insights, you’ll be able to lead change, reduce risk, and drive cross-functional improvement.
