Dynamic Simulation of Supply Chain and Logistics - Virtual Learning
Course Methodology
This Purchasing & Logistics training course on Dynamic Simulation of Supply Chain and Logistics uses a hands-on approach. The delegates will be provided with a Personal Learning Edition of the any Logistics software and will be walked through the examples of using the software for Supply Chain design, market planning, inventory optimization, warehouse practices improvement, risk management and customer satisfaction measurement.
Delegates will go through the step-by-step process of creating the supply chain process, performing the risk assessments, acquiring and analyzing the results and preparing the recovery measures.
The delegates will create simulation models based on the real life data, and will be encouraged to simulate the processes they are already working on. The focus is on the actual work of the delegates and their effective use of software.
Course Objectives
The objective of this Purchasing & Logistics training course is to teach the delegates how to use simulation tools and techniques for the Design, Analysis and Risk Management of Supply Chain and Logistics activities.
At the end of this Dynamic Simulation of Supply Chain and Logistics training course, you will learn to:

Target Competencies
Organisational Impact
As the Supply Chain and Logistics are very dynamic environment constant changes in the process are expected and therefore need to be addressed before we make physical changes in the supply chain itself, by being able to simulate the effects of planned activities the companies will gain effective edge over their competition, as they will be able to test the solutions before they apply it and before the plans get crushed when colliding with the real world, as a result of sending their employees on this Dynamic Simulation of Supply Chain and Logistics training course, organizations can expect to benefit from:
- The use of tools for the simulation of supply chain and logistics processes
- The knowledge of supply chain design and supply chain analytics
- Identify the actual risks and mitigation measures for their supply chains
- Understand patterns and possible bottlenecks as a result of planned changes
- Acquiring the knowledge of ripple and bullwhip effects identification trough simulations
Personal Impact
Delegates will learn how to perform the supply chain process design, identification of the distribution patterns and how are they implemented into the simulations, use of software for simulation of Supply Chain and Logistics processes, and airing personal learning edition of any Logistics supply chain simulation software, specifically, delegates will acquire:
- The structured knowledge of Supply Chain and Logistics dynamics
- Knowledge on risks associated with Supply Chain and Logistics activities
- Simulation techniques, advantages and limitations
- Step-by-step process of Supply Chain simulation
- Framework on how to analyze the results of experiments and simulations
- How to use simulation in their decision process?
