In Service Operations and Management Studio, the focus has been on optimum utilisation of resources, ranging from finance, hard infrastructure, soft infrastructure etc. Inventory management plays a key role in operationalising the PBS machinery effectively as it has direct impact on availability of bicycles which in turn dictates the ridership in the city. Therefore, particular emphasis has been laid on understanding and application of correct management tools in each component of inventory management so as to have a streamlined flow of available bicycles at each dock in the city.
