Chaos? Confusion? Delays? Part shortages? Does any of this look and sound familiar? It doesn’t have to.
Join us on September 30 from 9 am to 1 pm and we’ll serve up a good amount of supply chain with that lunch we’re providing.
It all starts with Strategic Sourcing. No longer does using the “push hard and get a lower price” mentality work. But what is in its place?
And here’s the thing: all those old practices in supply chain? Many still work. All you need to do is spruce them up a bit.
Join us and you’ll learn what the bell weather supply chains are doing to create relationships and get those “can’t be found” parts on your dock.
Here’s a hint: your secret recipe is to take a little supply chain strategy, add a dash of data analysis, and top it off with procurement best practices.
Even better - you’ll be able to take what you learn back to your company and use it.
To help with what you should do, we’ll use a case study, and hands-on exercises, and a lot of discussion.
Here are the details:
