Distribution Networks and 3PL
You price one workwear factory in Kavadarci and one European call-off programme end to end. You cost four network shapes on a single basis, where a famous rule promises twice the pooling saving the measured correlation delivers. Then you set your own warehouse against a third party's rate card, find the volume at which the answer flips, and find the clause that decides it.

Course value
What will you be able to do?
Work outcome
You can run a store where the record and the shelf agree, find and cost the gap when they do not, and move finished goods to a buyer's door on a plan rather than on a scramble.
Who it is for
Factory and supplier teams.
What you will produce
You compare four network shapes on one basis. You measure a pooling saving from your own correlation rather than assuming it from a rule. You cost your own warehouse in five buckets against a per-pallet, per-receipt, and per-pick rate card. You find the volume at which the answer flips. And you work out what a minimum-volume clause is worth to the party that wrote it.
