The Integrated Manufacturing and Supply Chain Planning Training Course offered by Imperial Corporate Training Institute is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of how modern manufacturing organisations can synchronise production, procurement, logistics, and supplier networks into a single, coordinated planning framework. In today’s competitive manufacturing environment, fragmented planning leads to inefficiencies, excess inventory, delayed deliveries, and rising operational costs. This course focuses on achieving supply chain integration by aligning manufacturing processes with procurement planning, logistics coordination, and strategic supplier collaboration.
Through a structured and practical approach, participants gain deep insight into achieving end-to-end visibility across manufacturing and supply chain operations. The course explores how integrated planning supports better forecasting, smoother operations alignment, and faster decision-making. Real-world manufacturing scenarios, planning models, and coordination strategies are used to demonstrate how organisations can connect demand planning, production scheduling, inventory control, and distribution into a unified planning system that supports sustainable operational performance.
