Alba to deliver Dubai Supply Chain seminar to top decision makers

Entitled, "Supply Chain Warehousing: Thrive in the Face of Challenge", the seminar will be held at the Westin Mina Seyahi Beach Resort in Dubai.

Warehousing is now recognised, along with Customer Requirements Management, Supply Management Transport Management and Inventory Management as one of the fundamental cornerstones of the supply chain of any business. However, what many do not yet realise is to what extent small improvements in layout, equipment, ways of working and skills development in the warehouse can have dramatic amplified positive effects up and down the supply chain.

Patrick Daly, Managing Director of Alba Logistics says,

"Warehousing activities, when contrasted with manufacturing activities have always been more challenging to structure, manage and quantify due to the variable nature and long cycle times of the tasks that take place in a typical warehouse. Nowadays however it is possible to apply a range of tools that allow real business benefits to be achieved through performance enhancement in cost, service and quality. More and more of the top organizations are now focusing on this important strategic area as one that can deliver real improvements to support customers and boost cash flow in the challenging times ahead."

The goal of this seminar is to provide tools, tips and ideas to enable businesses to thrive in the face of challenge in today's difficult and uncertain environment - to empower them to develop and implement warehousing strategies and operational configurations that will underpin and support the wider goals of the business.

The seminar will be delivered by Patrick Daly, Managing Director at Alba Logistics who has spent the last 20 years working on a wide range of warehousing projects delivering value to businesses around the world in manufacturing, distribution and logistics services. In recent years, Patrick has consulted with clients such as PepsiCo, GlaxoSmithKline, ABX Logistics, Braun, Shering-Plough, Ivax Pharmaceutical, Actavis and others.

This one-day seminar is specifically designed for top decision-makers in businesses in which warehousing constitutes a significant element of their supply chain activities. For this reason, the delivery is short, sharp and concise and cuts quickly to the issues of major importance. Furthermore numbers are strictly limited in order to ensure a focused and intense work environment that will provide the opportunity and flexibility to delve into items of particular interest to delegates.
