FLEET AND TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT (FTM)

Transportation activities can account to over 70% of an organization’s supply chain cost. Thus it is vital that an organization gets the transportation function right, whether its ambition is to meet personnel mobility needs or to execute the delivery of goods and materials.

In this course, we will examine the transportation function in a holistic manner. We start by outlining the requirements of successful fleet maintenance programs and workshops. We then describe the components of stringent fleet and driver safety programs and experiment with different capital budgeting and distribution routing techniques. We conclude with a thorough explanation of the key fleet performance measures.
