EBG | Play: Rewriting the Supply Chain Strategy Manual. How to Reconnect Links and Restore Continuity

How to Reconnect Links and Restore Continuity

To say supply chain and procurement have been and still may be in a turmoil is not an understatement. A unique situation – black swan or not – where more or less the entire world experience the same challenges. Borders have been closed, processes have been cut and as people have been forced to stay at home – entire supply chains have been cut in more ways than ever seen on a global scale.

What effect does this have on You? On Your business? On Your profession?

During the below session, EBG | Network had the pleasure of sharing the know how of Volker Roelofsen, Vice President, Consulting at GEP.

Main procurement & supply chain challenge

There are many challenges we are sure. Below the poll result from the below webinar (tune in to hear what reflections Volker made from it).

Main procurement & supply chain challenge

It is interesting how the state of global supply chain during Covid-19 is highlighting both the physical challenges – as in maintaining supplies – and visibility and control. Let’s face it – if you are still relying on people touching paper to gain control (as many still are) continuity pose a challenge most will need to fix.

Preparing for the ramp-up

Some may argue we are already in the New Normal or getting there. In any case, the On demand session give you hands on advice on considerations to do to ramp-up when possible.

  • Create visibility
  • Inventory estimation
  • Inventory reallocation
  • Use scenario based modeling..and much more
