Warehousing Basics
Operations Layout, Design and Processes Set Up
Warehouse Equipment:
Internal Combustion vs. Electric Power
Safety in Warehouse and Storage Facilities
Everything comes from a warehouse of some sort.
Receiving, storing, production, packaging, to shipping, all products we
touch every day start at a warehouse. Some companies manage to get
products or services out the door with some profit. Many are so busy
running the myriad of details a business requires, that they do not see
the gaps in their efficiency. Is your business growing?
Are you expanding or consolidating your operations? One key to
effectiveness is the relative dominance of picking or storage
activity. These two warehouse functions have opposing
requirements. Are you concerned over the prices of fuel
changes? What values are gained when your company goes
"Green"? Encouraging safety practices in the warehouse
environment.

Thursday, May 22, 2014
Registration:
8:00am

Juxtaposing
Import & Export Compliance
What's
the Big Difference Anyway?
|
|
Having focused on either imports or exports throughout
our careers, many professionals ask - are the two really so
different? In this unique program, we will compare and contrast the
similarities and differences in handling everyday import and export
transactions. In particular, we will provide examples of how you
can apply and leverage your experience and knowledge in core areas to
those where you may be less familiar (e.g., admissibility,
licensing, role of the parties, classification, valuation, correcting
errors, etc.).
