Whether you are a company with a manual
inventory control system, or one of the latest automated inventory control
systems. Inventory accuracy could be one of your best management tools, that
thorn that keeps creating non value work, or your worst nightmare causing
major management issues. Where do you think you rank?
Inventory accuracy management starts with recognizing there are problems,
identifying the problems, identifying the reason for the problems, how to
control the problems, and prevent their reoccurrence.
Based on over 15 years implementing ERP software systems and continuous
improvement projects, we will look at some root causes of inventory errors
and recommended solutions. The companies range from major automotive
components, chemical, consumer products, food & beverage, pharmaceutical,
and textile to small job shops.

- Identify potential inventory issues

Who should attend?
