“The
Inventory Management project undertaken by our UWS student was of the
highest calibre, one that delivered immediate tangible savings of
$450,000 with the potential for further substantial longer term savings.
Our
student quickly developed a clear understanding of our business drivers
and how these related to our project. He proactively applied himself to
the project and demonstrated a wide range of technical and project
management skills,”
