End-to-End Supply Chain Planning
Company profitability depends on a well-designed planning system and planning organization. Grupas Gelişim's "End-to-End Supply Chain Planning" program helps you build a decision support system in which demand and supply requirements are balanced. The program covers, in a hands-on manner, capacity concepts (theoretical, normal, actual, idle and optimum capacity, and capacity utilization rate), how the planning system works, and how strategic – tactical – operational planning levels are linked to one another. Managing capacity and profitability through production planning alone is not possible; with a People | Process | Technology approach, a planning-centric restructuring is targeted.
