In addition to ample networking opportunities with supply chain professionals from 33 different countries, this year’s conference will feature tracks on the latest issues in supply chain metrics, sustainability, and new trends and technology with hundreds of sessions to choose from.

While at the conference, please be sure to check out our session “Advanced Visibility Solutions for the Retail Supply Chain,” which we are co-presenting with Abercrombie & Fitch:

Abercrombie & Fitch that once outfitted Ernest Hemingway and Teddy Roosevelt for safaris is now challenged to globally orchestrate product deliveries with carton level visibility according to precise schedules to over 1,100 stores in the US, Canada, and Europe. In this session A&F will present a case study that details the implementation and results of integrating a new supply chain visibility solution.

Where is Supply Chain Strategy Heading? CSCMP Hosts a Panel Discussion

Emily — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 20:15:09 +0000

At this year’s CSCMP Annual Conference, a panel discussion was held with John Coyle of Pennsylvania State University, Bud LaLonde of Ohio State University, and Don Bowersox of Michigan State University, to discuss what will be needed now and in the future for supply chains to evolve and contribute to economic growth and corporate sustainability. Everyone offered some interesting views, and in case you were not in attendance, Logistics Today has posted up some of the key take-aways from the discussion.

A common theme among the panelists is that global supply chains and supply chain best practices are constantly changing and evolving. As prices, transportation rates, market volatility, current economic states, and a number of other variables fluctuate, it is necessary to tweak your supply chain strategies in order to optimize your network. To do so, it is important to remain flexible and open-minded, and keep in mind that what worked a year ago may not be the best solution today.

Please visit Logistics Today for more information on this discussion.
