It's very beneficial information but I feel like some of the equation courses should have a different style of examples. More detailed as it's not the easiest to understand. Maybe have more than one example. I struggled with the demand safety stock calculation and the inventory carrying cost calculation. Even though the formula was provided in the course, the breakdown lost me towards the end.

this is really a profound course that allow me to grasp all the different aspects of supply chain mechanism in such a simple and straight forward manner. The content was very strong in their graphic visualization which helps to boost the learning experience faster.

It really had good information on scientific ways to calculate safety stocks. Also good knowledge sharing on inventory carrying cost, ABC analysis, MTO, MTS strategies etc. On the whole it really was insightfull on inventory control and safety stock calculations.

The equations were very helpful and explained well. Some of the reasons why you decide as you do were obvious, but maybe not obvious to everyone. The rule of thumb that over 25% safety stock means you have other issues that need to be resolved is a good rule. More of these practical guidelines would have helped.
