Materials Management - Two days training Program at Delhi on 28, 29 September 2012

The major challenge that materials managers face is maintaining a consistent flow
of materials for production. There are many factors that inhibit the accuracy of inventory
which results in production shortages, premium freight, and often inventory adjustments.
The major issues that all materials managers face are incorrect bills of materials,
inaccurate cycle counts, un-reported scrap, shipping errors, receiving errors, and
production reporting errors. Materials managers have strived to determine how to manage
these issues in the business sectors of manufacturing since the beginning of the industrial
revolution. Although there are no known methods that eliminate the afore mentioned
inventory accuracy inhibitors, there are best methods available to eliminate the impact
upon maintaining an interrupted flow of materials for production.
