● Increasing capacity, productivity and profits within supply chain systems
● Optimising the planning, delivery and post-delivery stages of the supply chain to save money and enhance customer services
● How real-time data and demand forecasting can be used to streamline task scheduling, manage revenue and improve work practices
● Practical examples

“It is time for the way we plan and oversee our ports to change. Too little thought has gone into planning the road and rail links needed to support their activities...The resulting bottlenecks...are hurting Australia’s economic performance, causing lower productivity, slower growth and the loss of billions of dollars in export earnings.”
Prime Minister Julia Gillard,07. 01. 2011 WAToday
