Working Stock Mastery: Strategy, Optimization, and End-to-End Execution is a practitioner-driven course that teaches you how to define, size, and operate working stock so orders ship fast, accurately, and profitably. If you manage fulfillment centers, DCs, dark stores, or eCommerce nodes, you know the difference between a full warehouse and the right stock in the right pick face. This course connects inventory policy to floor execution and real-time systems, showing how working stock underpins service levels, labor productivity, and cost-to-serve. You’ll learn how to differentiate working stock from safety, cycle, buffer, pipeline, and pre-build—and why that separation matters to service promises and replenishment logic. We’ll translate demand profiles and SLAs into min–max and reorder parameters, then carry those decisions into slotting, replenishment triggers, throughput, and constraint management. You’ll also tie it all together with OMS/WMS/TMS integration, dashboards, alerts, and governance to sustain results. Through quizzes and a capstone workshop, you’ll design a working stock strategy for a real product family and facility, quantify labor and capacity impacts, and build an executive-ready rollout plan. Finish with a confident, repeatable approach to setting policy, executing on the floor, and continuously improving working stock to hit service, speed, and cost goals.

            <p>Working Stock Mastery: Strategy, Optimization, and End-to-End Execution is designed for supply chain and operations leaders who must translate inventory policies into service, speed, and cost advantages on the warehouse floor. The course establishes a precise definition of working stock—stock on hand in a facility used to fulfill demand—and differentiates it from safety, cycle, buffer, pipeline, and pre-build inventory. You will see how working stock sits within the broader plan–source–make–deliver–return framework, and how upstream factors (supplier lead times, order profiles, transportation cadence) and downstream realities (order mix, carrier cutoffs, returns) directly shape inventory requirements. We begin by clarifying audience expectations, prerequisites, course goals, and how those goals map to modules and assessments, ensuring every concept ties to operational outcomes and measurable performance.</p>
<p>Building on these foundations, the program moves into policy design and the mathematics that govern target levels and replenishment logic. You will characterize demand profiles—stable, seasonal, intermittent, and promotional—and translate customer promises and SLAs into SKU–location targets using the right service metrics (cycle service level, fill rate, order line fill, backorder tolerance). The course then guides you through parameterization distinct from safety stock—min–max, reorder points, reorder quantities—while accounting for MOQs, case packs, slot capacity, and multi‑echelon placement decisions. From there, we convert policy into execution: slotting strategies, primary and reserve design, demand‑driven replenishment, task interleaving, and the labor and equipment implications required to sustain pick‑face availability. You will map end‑to‑end flow, identify and relieve constraints across receiving, putaway, replenishment, pick, pack, and dispatch, and integrate WMS, OMS, TMS, and planning systems for real‑time ATP/ATS, allocation, and exception handling. Governance and change management practices anchor decision rights, training, and communication cadences, while KPIs—on‑hand accuracy, pick‑face fill, replenishment latency, order cycle time—drive continuous improvement. The capstone consolidates these skills: you will design a working stock strategy for a selected product family and facility, quantify service and throughput impacts, and present an executive‑ready plan with risks, mitigations, and rollout steps, reinforced by targeted quizzes throughout the journey.</p>
