Many large and smaller firms see warehousing as a core business. Based on its location in Europe and expertise of its logistic service providers, the Netherlands is a major site for distribution centers for many multinational companies. This course focuses on logistics within a facility and relates to operations, process design and execution. We will address such questions as: what is the most appropriate combination of storage system and handling system under which circumstances; and what is the resulting performance?
