On November 15th, 2019 RIT students that are currently enrolled
in the Operations Management course were invited to the Konzum Logistics and
Distribution Center in Zagreb. Two groups of 40 students were organized to have
a tour of the center. Mr. Adrian Alajkovic hosted us throughout our trip. Not
only is Mr. Alajkovic an adjunct lecturer at RIT Croatia but he is also Supply Chain Planning
and Inventory Mgmt Director at Konzum. The students
had the great opportunity to see all the concepts that they have been learning
during their Operations Management course and how they can be implemented in
business practices. They also were able to see which operations management
strategies are used frequently at Konzum, how to measure productivity, how to
organize a warehouse of that size and many other operations practices.
