随着制造业步入精益和微利时代，作为生产过程的重要支撑，物流系统起着至关重要的作用。应用精益原理来消除物流运作流程中浪费的时间和作业步骤，从而改善物流过程的安全、品质、交货期和成本；既不早、也不晚，恰好及时地完成供-产-销的物流过程，追求“零周期”、“零库存”和“准时化”（Just in Time，简称 JIT），是精益管理体系，特别是物流与供应链管理的目标。
目前，不少公司仍面临着物料路线缺乏合理规划、移动路线迂回与交叉、移动距离过长、物流各相关部门与功能区未站在全局的立场进行统一协调、物料系统缺乏柔性和适应性、难以适应小批量多品种多批次的供料需求，物料供应效率低下，错误率不断等亟待解决的实际问题。
为此，GAMI 特别策划了题为“精益化和智能化内部物流管理 ”的培训课程，邀请GAMI 高级顾问沈春峰先生就企业物流系统普遍存在的问题，与大家分享经验、提供见解，为大家的日常工作改善带来启发，让您汲取先进企业经典案例精髓的同时，掌握先进物流管理的技术和方法，获得现代精益物流管理新思维。

Extensive power cuts have and are continuing to cripple critical industrial outputs and create instability for the business landscape in China. With increased pressure from authorities to meet targets for energy reduction, the current power shortages experienced across the nation are at the forefront of China’s Carbon neutrality ambitions to peak carbon emissions by 2030 and ultimately achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. Issues are exacerbated by insufficient new energies power supply and surging prices of coal/gas that increase costs for power producers that will likely to persist this coming winter. However, we need to ensure that there is a balance between Energy Security and China’s long term carbon neutrality targets through a more sustainable approach.

With the EU Commission presidency of Ursula von der Leyen in 2019, the European Green Deal was announced to transform the EU economy into a climate-neutral and sustainable economy and to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals SDGs.
