Overview
Details

Our students are available for assisting to solve any business problem (internal or external) related to Warehouse and/or Distribution.

Our students offer recommendations for warehouse design and/or operations or any other warehouse challenge your company may be experiencing or other business improvement outcomes. This course is focused on developing students' understanding of warehouse and distribution designs and operations. The course is a popular elective and thus we have students from many disciplines enrolled bringing with them a variety of talents and interests from the School of Business and Management. We are based in Vietnam and are looking forward to working with you online. We will provide a final report and video presentation.

Learner skills
Report writing, Warehouse layout, Inventory control, Product flow
Deliverables

Generally, our projects are two-part...the first is a written report. This includes a typical business-style report including an Executive Summary, Introduction/Background, Analysis, Findings, Recommendations, Conclusion, References/Appendix. The second part is usually a video presentation about the project.


These would be shared with the industry partner at the end of the semester.

Project Examples

The students of Warehouse & Distribution Channels worked on a challenge to improve 6 of the 12 measured warehouse-KPIs evaluated by the company. The students provide a written report offering recommendations to improve the warehouse operations based on thorough research.
