5.0 out of 5 stars Inventory Control is Important!, November 3, 2004
This review is from: The Forklifts Have Nothing To Do!: Lessons in Supply Chain Leadership (Paperback)
Colonel Walden is right on the money. Busy forklifts do not translate into effective or efficient supply operations. Careful use of economic order quantities, re-order points tuned to demand levels and demand forecasts, and a focus on ensuring the 20% of inventory items that account for 80% of your transactions are always available, is what matters. Also, forward deployment of assets where possible to cut down on ship times to the customer is important. Colonel Walden gives you the facts. And, while I have referred to his rank, please do not infer that this book is for military use only. The supply operations methods in this book are equally applicable to civilian use, and will reduce the cost of material handling, storage, etc.
