End-To-End Supply Chain Planning Course

Process Fundamentals, Best Practices, and Using AI to Improve Results

Invested millions—or even hundreds of millions—in systems, yet your supply chain still doesn’t work? Are you still running the business in Excel despite all that investment? Do your operational processes give you comfort—or keep you up at night? Are your people stressed and fatigued because the business is running you instead of you running the business?

If your supply chain has devolved into a constant cycle of Order! Launch! Expedite!—and costs are spiraling out of control—it’s time to improve your planning processes.

Have you googled “best practices” and still struggled to make progress? This class will show you how to apply those best practices effectively. You don’t need more theory—you need a roadmap to execution.

What is the End-To-End Supply Chain Planning Course?

When there’s a clear understanding of who manages plans,  why processes work, End-To-End and how they align with Value Disciplines, you can achieve operational excellence by improving End-To-End Supply Chain Planning.

This course is a hands-on learning experience using games, models, and AI, where you will actively apply best practice supply chain theory to operational practice. In this class, you will learn how to:

• Segment your product portfolio, suppliers, and customers.
• Clean and maintain Master Data Integrity and Inventory Record accuracy.
• Calculate capacity and apply constraints.
• Master Schedule and buffer for demand variability.
• Develop Production wheels and define run rates.
• Manage and assess suppliers.
• Measure and report performance that drives accountability and results.

How will you learn? You will fix “BigCo.”

In this course, you won’t just learn theory—you’ll apply it through an immersive case study focused on “BigCo,” a fictional company that mirrors real-world challenges as employees are fatigued and frustrated because they lack control over the business. The company runs on Excel despite large technology investments. Master data is a mess, making planning impossible. Costs are out of control, and no one can figure out how to fix it.
