Integrated Inventory and Warehouse Management Training in Uganda
Classroom cohorts in Kampala · live online · in-house anywhere in Uganda
Inaccurate stock records and badly organised warehouses lead to missed orders, emergency purchases, write-offs and wasted labour. You begin with warehouse layout and flow design, planning receiving, put-away, storage, picking and dispatch zones and choosing racking and handling equipment. Inventory accuracy sessions cover cycle counting, ABC-based count frequencies, root cause analysis of discrepancies and the controls that keep book and physical stock aligned. Systems days explain how a warehouse management system is configured, from location coding and item master data to barcode and RFID scanning and integration with ERP.
Operational sessions focus on picking methods such as batch, zone and wave picking, packing station design, slotting and making better use of cube and floor space. The last day sets warehouse KPIs including order accuracy, dock-to-stock time, inventory turns and cost per order line, with continuous improvement tools to lift them. Layout and slotting exercises let you redesign a sample facility. Warehouse and stores managers, inventory controllers, logistics supervisors and supply chain staff will find it practical. Afterwards you can lift stock accuracy, cut travel time and set up a performance dashboard for your own operation.
About this course
This 5-day practical course covers integrated inventory and warehouse management. Participants learn warehouse design principles, storage systems, inventory record accuracy, receiving and dispatch procedures, and warehouse management system (WMS) configuration that maximize operational efficiency.
Topics include space optimization, picking strategies, labor productivity, safety management, and performance metrics that enable warehouses to process high volumes accurately while controlling costs and minimizing damage.
Throughout the programme, participants work through realistic scenarios drawn from public procurement bodies, commercial supply chains, logistics operations, and donor-funded tendering environments, examining how integrated inventory and warehouse management is applied in practice and where it most often breaks down. Delegates will develop practical skill in designing appropriate frameworks, selecting and applying the right tools for inventory accuracy controls, interpreting findings, and communicating conclusions clearly to colleagues, management and external stakeholders. Sessions move deliberately from principles to application, so that each technique introduced is practised against a realistic problem before the programme moves on — strengthening both individual effectiveness and the wider capability of the organizations delegates return to.
Training Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Develop robust integrated inventory and warehouse management frameworks that support successful implementation and measurable outcomes.
- Analyze performance using recognized evaluation methods drawn from inventory accuracy controls.
