Flagship program
Network Resilience Playbook
Six facilitated sessions for a team that already has a map and suspects the map is lying. Informational fee: A$7,350 per seat, GST exclusive. No checkout on this site.
Modules
Strip the cartoon
You arrive with a network drawing. We remove nodes that cannot be funded by a lane table. Homework: a lane table with hours, not colours.
Name the joints
Berths, co-packers, brokers, and single mills. Shared failure is drawn in a way finance can read.
Price the second path
Inland diversion, air cap, and a second packer that actually has capacity. Wishful capacity is scored as zero.
Write the twelve hours
Owners, phone trees, and the first moves that are not “set up a war room.”
Write the first week
Customer gate hours, harvest windows, and the kill-switch if the recovery date is theatre.
Pin it to the wall
A playbook short enough to live next to the MRP screen. Critique is public in the room, not in a private chat.
Learning outcomes
- Produce a funded lane table for one Australian network.
- Identify at least one false dual-source.
- Draft a sequenced disruption script with named owners.
- Explain a buffer decision to finance without collapsing it into a single “safety days” slogan.
Instructor
Adele Hart ran network design inside a national grocery wholesaler before joining Webfieldbase. She still prefers a whiteboard to a slide. She will not teach this program as a keynote.
Informational pricing
Playbook Seat A$7,350. Maximum twelve seats. Printed maps included. Travel to a private in-house run is extra. See retainers if you need Floor Companion time after the cohort.
Questions we actually get
Can we send observers who will not do the homework?
No. Observers turn the room into a briefing. We will refund an unused seat under the refund notice rather than pretend a spectator is a participant.
Is this useful if our ERP extract is messy?
Yes, and that is a real limitation: session two will feel slow. We will not invent clean lead times. If you cannot produce a volume file at all, book a Lane Audit first instead of a seat.
Do you cover international inbound beyond Australian ports?
We treat origin ports as constraints on the drawing. We do not run a China-factory module. If your pain is a Shenzhen mill, say so on the form so we can decline honestly.
From people who sat this program
The twelve-hour script from module four is taped inside the duty manager’s cupboard. It looks ugly. It got used in January.
Adele would not let us keep a “virtual DC” on the map. I argued for twenty minutes. The lane table won. I still think the visual was useful for the board pack, which is why I mention the reservation.
