There may not be an audit course exclusively for logistics/warehousing. However, there is an ISO standard, ISO 28000, for supply chain security management, which includes your area of interest.

ISO 28000 - Supply Chain Security Management Systems

The ISO 28000 standard establishes a security system that will protect people, goods, infrastructure, equipment, and transportation against security incidents and other potentially devastating situations. It specifies the requirements to establish, implement, maintain, improve, and audit a security management system. The series comprises ISO 28000:2007, ISO 28001:2007, ISO 28002:2011, ISO 28003:2007, ISO 28004:2007, and ISO 28005-2:2011.

You can take the Lead Assessor Course in the ISO 28000 standard (which is a one-week course) conducted by ISO 28000 certifying bodies. With this qualification, you are able to conduct audits on all aspects of supply chain security management.

Dear Mr. Moiz Bastawalla, you mentioned that "audit is a generalized term and not related to any specific industry." However, this statement itself is quite a broad generalization. When it comes to warehouses, they come in various types. How can one compare a warehouse storing carpets with one storing grains or cement? Each type of warehouse has its distinct characteristics. Hence, there is a necessity for product-specific audits and supply chain-specific audits.

Tailoring Audits to Specific Business Domains

Consider a standard store within a factory setting. Refer to my previous comments on general audits in the following link: https://www.citehr.com/446398-how-st...ml#post2012813. The points outlined in the provided link are general in nature. Nonetheless, it is crucial to tailor our audit approach to our specific business domain.

Training Session Coordination

For Hitendra: You may coordinate my training session for your warehouse staff. This training will cover all the audit points.

Ok...
