Sourcing and Supply Chain Management (SCM) have evolved over the past decade to be recognized as significant contributors to the bottom line. Traditional sourcing events generating hard dollar cost savings are still important, but are inadequate in our time of rapidly evolving and converging technologies, increased market competition and the emergence of new types of suppliers and supply chain fulfillment. SCM leaders need to be more creative in defining and extracting value from the supply chain in order to meet stakeholder expectations. Market disruptive solutions rethink traditional norms and roles, differentiate organizations and can unlock new and real value streams. In this session, you will learn how to be creative in building SCM solutions that rethink traditional norms, identify new forms of value, and give you a step ahead in the marketplace.
Topics covered in this session included:
- How to understand the evolution and future of traditional value streams
- How advanced supplier relationships and technology can build new solutions
- How to transform the SCM function from cost center to revenue generator
- How to take this from concept to reality
