Hi, Great video! Can you recommend any automation software for small businesses?
Hi Dolapo. I don't recommend any software at the moment because I prefer focusing on education and teaching. It also depends on what type of automation you want. You can automate many things on Excel with modules such as Power Query and Power Pivot
Is this method for a push process or a pull process. I am in the Manufacturing industry.
Not sure to understand your question?
Hi Edouard, which factors would you look at for optimization of a crossdock? Which kind of data can be used?
